Goodbye To August

With one big jump, this little guy has hopped right into September. As he was flying by, he looked down at me to pose for my blog. And then he was on his way.


O.K., I made up the entire story. But I wish it HAD been that way. In reality, while I was in the car he perched on the windshield. I was so glad it was clean enough for these shots!

I'm so glad you let us in on the secret. I was wondering how you managed to get that amazing picture of the grasshopper. I never would have guessed it was taken through a windshield

I want to know why and how you find all this interesting stuff.... he just fell into your blog post out of thin air..... love it

He looks like Jiminy Cricket to me! Was he singing "When you wish upon a star"?

George said...

You got wonderful pictures of Jiminy Cricket, regardless how they happened!

Cute story.From my point of view,I would rather have him on the windshield, while I was safely in the car.

Sunday Sunset

 I snapped these from the Target parking lot. The sun had just gone down, but the trees were hiding the very bottom part of the sunset. Life...
