This blog is quiet, but I'm not!

I'm absolutely terrible at blogging, and have proved it to myself yet again. So much time online, and yet somehow almost none of it gets here!  I'm hardly a social butterfly, but social media eats up a lot of time.  What would it be like if I actually was gregarious! 

So...  you can find me on Pinterist, my most recent obsession.  Or Dreamstime, where I post my photographs for sale.  Or Facebook of course!  My Flickr photostream is not as active as it used to be, but that is where the best travel shots do get posted. 

I will drop by here from time to time, since this is sort of "home" on the web.

This is the first time we have actually witnessed two butterflies hatching at the same time.

Even in discouraging times, the miracle of daily life is intense.

Without this where would we be...

As a friend on Flickr says... this is life in motion. We move so fast through our busy lives, and sometimes miss the wonders right under our noses. This is certainly not a new comment - but it bears repeating.

A news article I read recently said that a byproduct of the worriesome economy is that people spend more time with their families. So there is a silver lining to the gloomy clouds.

Take a moment to see the fleeting beauty of nature. All we have is NOW.
