Time to change the post

Not a very original title is it?

I always have things to say but that doesn't translate automatically to a blog.
I decided to post pictures.

I mean, why not? A picture is worth a thousand words so this blog ends up being a short story, right? LOL

This first picture is of a place I drive by at least twice a month but I've been doing it for 15 years. Finally I slowed down enough to snap this picture. I wanted to share this with you so you could see the sheer absurdity of posting two different speed postings so close together. I mean, if you go 35MPH, do you get a ticket for breaking the 25MPH limit?
Which one do you choose and since when should we HAVE a choice? LOLOL
I don't think it's too often where numbers make me laugh,but these sure do.
What were they thinking? And why leave it for over a decade?



This next photo is one of three baby snakes my kids found. They put 2 in the hole they dug so they could view nature up close. Of course I had to come out to see what the excitement was about. Personally, I'm not too excited or enthusiastic about things that slither but I have to admit, small things, even snakes, are cute.


This next shot is of an unusual bug that up until I moved to the country, I thought were exotic and had only seen them on TV. What an amazing surprise to find this five incher...possible six, in our yard after a rather humdinger of a thunderstorm. It's an amazing critter and you know what? I think they bite. Won't catch me testing that theory out though. ::shudder::



I love this picture. It's of a friends frisky dog and I was able to snap the pic because the little darling needed a rest after racing pell mell all over the neighborhood when we took her for a 'walk'.
**gg**
She's such an adorable and loving puppy. Though I think she'll be a year old fairly soon. Where does the time go?



This last picture is of my SIL's dog. Another cutie who luurves his mommy. My SIL was out on the porch talking to my DH and the dog was inside. As you can see, inside is NOT where he wanted to be. Isn't the paw up in the air endearing? Soon after this picture was taken we took pity and let him out so he could jump joyously around my SIL. I'm personally not a dog person but being in these two dogs' company for awhile, I can see the appeal.


Well, there you have it. Words do come from pictures and I now have my blog post.
Have a wonderful week everyone!

Sing with me.


I GOT YOU, BABE!

LOL

This is also a great lead in to follow up on the "Bite My Tongue" post.
The police ID'd the thief!
Seems finger prints DO work! ( I never doubted it, just doubted the possibility of the "perfect" print)
Turns out, the thief is well known. He strikes like a de-fanged cobra - in and out quick and never hits the same place twice. I guess there's a bonanza of targets out there. Anyway, he gets caught, serves a few years, gets out and does it all over again.
I actually feel bad for the guy. I mean, what kind of life is that? That isn't living. But he's made his choices and after ten years, I don't think it's going to change.
I wonder what happened to put him in such a cycle of crime?
The good thing, if you could call it that, is he's a non-violent offender. He doesn't like confrontation. Which makes sense if you remember how I said he was frazzled when the witness came upon him unexpectedly.

All in all ... as Inspecter Clouseau would say, " The case ... is .. Sol-ved." *grin*

It 84 degrees today! What a nice change and LOW humidity. That's always a bonus.

Pssst.
Guess what?
Tomorrow is my 22nd wedding anniversary! Where did the time go?

AND this is my 424th post! Who knew I could blab so much?



I think it's time to celebrate, don't you?
