While our lives can be very busy
it's a good thing to pause and look at the
little things in life that mean a lot to us.

Magpie Tales #226 A Game of Chance
A Game of Patience, 1937, Meredith Frampton
Are you sure you want to see this card?
It's rather like Eve's apple...or Pandora's box
Some say it's real...I say it's surreal
The future is best not known
As it's rarely a good deal
~~~~~~~~
Go Fish see how others dealt with this image
and many thanks to Tess Kincaid for Magpie Tales!

Yesterday we combined family business
with a special and personalized tour of the
restored Capitol building. My dad was
the architect for this Restoration project.
It was the cherry on top of his career.
It's a gorgeous building.

Unless, of course, if you are living in the
Southern Hemisphere - then today is your
shortest day! Either way - have fun and smile!

Magpie Tales #224 The Surreal Rene Magritte
Not To Be Reproduced ~ 1937
There once was a artist Magritte
His fabulous art was a treat
With a pipe in his hand
He said "Aint' life grand"
Being Son of Man can't be beat!

Once snapped the image is trapped.
"The creative act lasts but a brief moment,
a lightning instant of give and take,
just long enough for you to level the camera
and trap the fleeting prey in your box."

Six Words and Sunday Shadows June 7-8, 2014
We took a break from work!
We have had our noses to the proverbial
grindstone lately- especially Russell!
He's done an awesome job replacing all
our kitchen appliances and making our
kitchen much more efficient and streamlined.
So- we drove up to Etna Brewery for
( 50 miles up in the mountains)
tasty ales and delicious food! It was a warm
sunny day and I could not resist these shadows.

It's Awww Monday! June 2, 2014
It's a small world in my garden....
Flutterbye
Busy Honey Bee
Tiny butterfly
Open winged view of flutterbye
Hey!
Blue Belly Lizard likes his privacy...
Huge bumbling bee...
KEW Gardens Rose
( funny as those are my initials)
Our newest plant addition to our garden...
Hopefully the bug doesn't eat it....
And now that I have captured these
insects digitally I will have to find
out exactly what they are for sure!
Have a great week!

Magpie Tales #222 Dead End
Image provided by Tess Kincaid of Magpie Tales
Take this for what ails ya
It ain't aganst the law
It'll make ya feel much bettah
As you ingest for happiness
Erase sadness as you swallow
Tired of all your soggy sorrow
With one gulp and a deep breath
You've managed to hook up with Dr. Death
