Thunder Clouds
It’s been crazy hot up here. Like, hole up in the house, and don’t go anywhere in daylight hot. One of the few bright sides to that is the really interesting weather the heat brings on. (And we’ve been lucky there – no crazy statewide damaging thunderstorms that knock out power for a week…)
Petit Manan National Wildlife Refuge – Steuben, ME
In an effort to find something Down East that we hadn’t done before, the BF stumbled upon the Maine Coastal Islands National Wildlife Refuge, specifically the Petit Manan Point section in Steuben. It was definitely the best part of our weekend. (And I say that despite the fact that we were nearly eaten alive by

Wolfes Neck and the Supermoon
So I went to download my knitting project pictures yesterday, and realized I had 95 pictures on my camera. I have a rather large project going on at work right now, and I’m apparently more distracted than I realized. The BF’s cousin and husband had come up to visit us last weekend, and I

Spring Flowers
From around the neighborhood. These were actually taken on the 15th, so a number of them have now gone by.
