Is he not lovable?

Look at this face and convince yourself otherwise.

Lovely.

Thursday’s morning sky was lovely. While getting up at 0445 AM to do what I need to do, then get to work at a reasonable time is at times more than a little unpleasant, viewing such beauty is a reasonable trade-off.

A hole in the clouds.

Last night, as a rain shower moved almost overhead, I happened to look in the right direction at the right time to see this, a hole in the low cloud cover revealing a sunlit cumulus way up high.

Bright and cheerful.

Seeing this nasturtium flower made for a bright and cheerful start to my day.

Toad.

This toad tolerated my getting up close to take its portrait.

Watches the world pass by.

Lucy watches the world pass by. We raise the window curtain so she can do this, which reduces the possibility the will become bored. A bored dog can be a mischievous dog.

Happy to share.

We are happy to share our yard with this little sprite, which finds plenty of shelter amongst the rubble left over from a concrete pad demolished before our deck was replaced.
