May 22nd Photo-A-Day V
This Photo-A-Day letter was a hard one. I don’t have a volcano to snap a picture of. No vampire here. Haven’t seen a vulture either. The VIOLENT wind we are having today would be super hard to snap a picture of so, I decided that I would just snap a picture of a vine outside the front door. But when I looked down I found a clump of wild violets. That’s a way better picture than vine that hasn’t flowered yet. So I give you Violets. In case you want to check out a creepy treehouse be sure to read Photo A Day T
May 21st Photo-A-Day U
For the Photo-A-Day U, I am going to go with UNIQUE. As most of you know Miss Bear and I hike every morning. Bear is addicted to eating turkey poo (she’s fast too! Before you can call her out on that nasty habit it’s GONE!!) Of course the Mama hunts for shed (antlers) Up to FOUR now!! This last one being the nicest and largest. Noooo that’s not my Unique, although it’s really cool looking and each and everyone of them is different. I have yet to find a match set. (YET!) No, my unique actually had my city girl paranoia going wacky-a-do! On our hike I spotted a cedar tree with this perfect FRESH square cut out. SAY WHAT?! Who is hiking around in our trees?? What the heck are they doing?? What is THIS!! WHAT THE WHAT?!?! Here is a close up (Yes, I forgot to take a faraway shot, when I find this dang tree again, I promise to post that shot too) It’s NOT man-made!! THIS square, this precise cut out was made from a Pileated (pie-lee-ay-tid) Woodpecker!! How amazing is this?! I just can’t get over that a BIRD did this!!! Oh Mother Nature you…

May 20th Photo-A-Day T
I am kinda excited about this particular Photo-A-Day T prompt because this old gal climbed up into the tree house! Yes, I DID!!! I will totally cop to the fact that I was shaking, white knuckling the climb. I kept hearing the contractors’ warnings about the deck. Same people that built the deck built the tree house……. hummmmmm should this chunky 60 year-old gal reallllllllllly be going up here?? With only the DOG as back up?!?!? Yeah, well I promised that voice in my head a full glass of wine if she just quieted down so I could take a bunch of pictures. At ONE time there were even glass windows in this tree house (yes, another to-do has been added to my list. Go clean up the glass surrounding the tree house) There are curtains, carpet and a small table inside. The curtains are old and tattered and give the tree house a scary look and feel inside (Or coulda still been the contractor’s voice…. who knows for sure) My sister thinks it would be a great place for a Ouija Board and a scary movie marathon. There is even a three-quarter wrap around porch!! Seriously, this had to…
