July Photo-a-day Challenge with ChrissyT
Day 17
On A Shelf
📷 📷 📷
A foggy morning walk today.
60 degrees and calm.
Started out foggy but the sun came out later.
Walked around both of the cemeteries.
The herd bulls are back in the pasture down by the Drane house.
There used to be 7 black bulls.
Now 3 of the black ones are back with 4 of the new Speckled Park ones.
Had a couple of books to drop off at the library so stopped
at the Jeep, picked up the books and walked to the library.
From there I walked up and down some side streets and
over to the ball park.
Walked around there, a few more side streets and then
back to the pond.
I saw Shelia out running.
🙂 🌫 🥾 🧢
Got some house stuff done in the morning.
The sun was out but it was a filtered sun because of the smoke
from the fires in Canada.
Didn't sit on the porch today because it smelled like smoke!!
David and Liz came over this afternoon for birthday cake.
I gave David one of the cards I had made.
We all had a piece of cake and I gave them the rest
of the cake to take home.
Some of you have asked how David was doing in his new job.
He's been there a few weeks now and things are going well.
He not only works with the fork lift but they have
him inside working on a computer also.
He's outside when using the fork lift but in an air conditioned
office when on the computer.
Has gotten lots of praise for the job he's doing.
So that's it for today.
Hope you had a wonderful Friday.
Thanks for stopping by.

You don't raise heroes, you raise sons.
And if you treat them like sons,
they'll turn out to be heroes,
even if it's just in your own eyes.

Hi Karen, your photos are lovely. I especially love seeing the bulls!
As far as the weather goes, last week we here in Canada had extreme heat and humid conditions that the weather experts were saying was due to a heat dome coming from the U.S.
Now you in the U.S. are getting smoke and bad air quality due to our Canadian wildfires! Sigh!
I hope the smoke alleviates and eradicates soon! Ontario, here in Canada is getting it big time right now as well. :(
I hope you have a lovely weekend, dear friend. Please stay safe.
...those foggy shots are wonderful and "on a shelf" custom made for you, Karen.
Nice foggy shots, they look great.
Great pictures for 'on a shelf'
I like your foggy photographs.
Pleased Davids job is going well - happy birthday wishes for him.
All the best Jan
Glad to hear David is having success at his new job.
Good for David on his new job. I hope he'll be happy there.
I liked seeing your first photo of the shelves. I have almost exactly the same ones!!
Rather foggy where you are currently. Is it winter already? Soon be Christmas.
God bless.
The for around the cemetery was eerie. Great photos for today!
Between the fog and the smoke it must have been a little strange walking.
Nice shots of your shelves for the photo of the day.
I’m loving all these photos. So evocative and beautiful. Have a wonderful day.
I like your shelves. I see some Pioneer Woman bowls in the first picture. I have a set like that but with different designs.
Glad to hear that things are going well at David's new job.
That's great news about David and his job. Love the 'shelf' photos. Sorry that the fires are still burning and the smoke is coming all the way to you. We are having our first real smoky sky morning here today. There are fires on the Colville Reservation...
Sounds like David is doing great with the new job.
I love your foggy images, the cows are cute critters.
Happy Saturday! Have a great weekend.
That final poem spoke to me, since our oldest son was described as a hero after his water bomber crashed in Alberta fighting a fore.
I love how cozy and cheery your shelves look!
I'm glad David's job is going well. I love the quote about sons.
