A couple of weeks ago, I emailed Carolyn that Chase had brought me a rose. It was, unfortunately, still attached to the rose bush he had exhumed. That was probably the last flower in the yard for this year. So, I’m compelled to share what was . . . I’ve learned how to laugh and I’ve learned how to cry . . . darned puppy!

I am past sixty-five and still practicing law. I have two terrific sons, they have lovely wives, and I have one truly special granddaughter. At home are three Cardigan Welsh Corgis that amuse and challenge me. We participate in lots of dog-related activities. I love my camera, writing, and roaming. I live in central New Mexico because it's where I want to be. Thanks for visiting my blog. Your (tasteful) comments are welcome.
What kind of camera do you have Penni? You take beautiful shots!!
For the “macro” shots of flowers and plants, I use a Minolta Maxxum 430si. I call it the “idiot camera” because it has an auto setting that is great for action shots. For the macros I use a 70 to 210 lens and do not use the auto setting. I always carry a boatload of film. Thanks for the kind words. Wandering around taking photos is so high on my list of favorite things!
For the photos of the critters, I have a little Olympus digital that will fit in my purse or a pocket, or can sit on my desk for those sudden “cute” shots. I have a second battery always charging and extra memory cards.
Great photos of the flowers and insects. Thanks for sharing. I enjoyed them.
