The driftwood’s journey
While I was along the Mississippi River, I noticed a very large piece of driftwood passing by.
I wondered how far north it was when it fell into the river. Where is it now?

Ever since I bought my house two years ago, the exterior has needed painting. That finally happened today. The ugly, worn-off, beige color is gone. Yay!
Soaring turkey vultures
I saw a lot of turkey vultures at Wyalusing. They’re large birds, with wingspans up to 6 feet.
Atop the bluffs of Wyalusing
Last week I was camping at Wisconsin’s Wyalusing State Park, which has spectacular views along the bluffs.
Frodo? Are you home?
Seen along the Edgewood pleasure drive in Madison.
Barbra and her lilacs
Last weekend Dad and I went to Minneapolis to see my sister, Barbra Bloy. The lilacs blooming in front of her house made a great backdrop for a few pictures.
