Captured a couple
of lightning strikes this morning

August 30 ... and some more racing :)

In Gimli today to watch Brian race ...

Waiting ...

In between races with Moose :)

Managed to find a spot a little closer to the action

Conrad & Moose :)

We were very thankful ...

Brian took a spill late in the afternoon, but came out with no serious injuries and 

minimal damage to his bike.  

August 29 ... At ground level

At ground level ...
and in the fog :)

Took my camera along
on my walk this am ...

Clint, driving his dad's car at the
Legends Car Club Charity Drag Races

And had the pleasure of
these munchkins (and their mom and dad :),
for supper

The carpet of hail stones
this morning

I felt pretty lucky this morning.  I was out on my morning walk,

and made it back into our house less than 2 minutes ahead

of this stuff!  

August 27

After waiting for several weeks to try to get my hands on a bundle of denim patches,
finally decided to try to make them myself.  At this point, 2 pairs of  Troy's  jeans
had yielded 12 patches.  Only about 80 or 90 to go ...

Zoe is 3 months ... and
discovering fingers and tongue :)

August 25

Today's prompt had something to do with ...
where I rested my feet today ?
These feet rest on my bike pedals for a part
of almost every day :)

Came out the door and heard
a power chute sailing by ...
I've always wanted a ride on one of those!

August 24

Loving all the fresh produce in our fridge these days :)

August 23

Post-workout drink?

August 22 ... Contrast

August 21

Going for the plunge

Ravae loved the pool,
despite the coolish temps today

Technically, not a great photo ...
but got such a kick out of these expressions :)

These guys were busy, busy, busy ...
a little hard to keep up with them at times

And Zoe dipped her
toes in yet too



Ravae and Grandpa
sharing a little dessert

Always on the hunt for
letter cubes ...

August 19 ... Domestic / Familiar / Recognizable

The laundry rack set up in a spare bedroom,
always seems to be full 

The neighbors out
for a ride after supper

August 18

          The kids were

          pretty hyper

          with all the excitement

          of the lift

       and the chain saws

      going on at our

      place tonight :) 

This group of girls decided
to watch from the safe distance
of the veranda swing

One dead elm tree 

bites the dust

August 16 ... Red / contrast

Some of our tomato bounty :)

A wonderful afternoon for golf
with Harry & Fran!

August 15 ... In the sky

This heat has made me lazy and unmotivated :(
Just can't get up the energy or enthusiasm to go
hunting for photos these days, so ...
you get what you get.

August 14

Corn picking helper

August 13 ... Portrait with Red / Prop

Started reading some ebooks
on my Ipad this summer

Very ominous looking skies this afternoon

Ben has become
very intent on fishing ... everywhere!

Watching the combine unload this evening

One of my drive-by shots
coming back from the city today ...
lots of harvesting happening :)

Zoe ... 11 weeks

Stopped in to visit with
Great Grandma tonight for awhile,
and of course, that means treats! :)
