growth



These bamboo stalks are coming up all over my yard. If I ignore this one for a week, it'll be taller than me, and by the end of the season will be thirty feet high. So take a good look, because I don't intend on that happening.

Here are more pictures representing growth.

dogs of art



Today I am correcting the scarcity of dog pictures on this blog. Above and below they frolic/sniff around a public sculpture garden. That is sculpture they're posing with. Or some form of herbacide.


Here we have the silver and bronze medalists in the bridge race.

sprung



This last week I was seeing signs of Spring around town. This would be early early Spring, which means we're about two weeks away from being in the middle of deep oppressive Summer. Well . . . not really. I believe these are dogwood trees. Or pear.

uncaged heat


Here are some pictures of how I spent last weekend, including the one above of what appears to be a girl escaping from a pen.





There was a cookout featuring grilled foil. Maybe all the food went to the horse.
