@crimsonblu22 I like those shows too but David Attenboroughs are just amazing.

@wissox83 I never pass up a Planet Earth series by Sir David, or any of the others he has done.

Last year we had a robin drop one egg in a wren's nest. It stayed there until the others had hatched and I think she abandoned it for a racoon to find it. I only see robins during migration, and it's only for a couple of days at the most. In Minnesota when you saw a robin it meant spring was here. Anybody else have local tall tales?

@RockChalkinTexas-0 I'm not sure of the origin of the mascot but the town we lived in in Wisconsin had a mascot of the Red Robin.

The sunflower patch is succumbing to the heat and bugs have eaten the leaves.

Happy 250th Birthday America! I flew to Philadelphia at the end of June 1976 to visit my BF who had moved from Leavenworth to Bethlehem PA for all the bicentennial festivities. This is a throwback to my trip to see the Liberty Bell and a shirt I bought. Saw the tall ships parade and it was awe inspiring. Went down to Cape May and spent the day walking the beach. Was a magical time and I have lifetime memories of the joyful moments that were everywhere you went. Have a great day!
P.S. Congratulations to Travis and Taylor

Here's a 2,000 piece puzzle we worked on this week. It is called Radiant Rainbow Mandalas. It was a tantalizing array of colors.
What Is the Purpose of a Mandala?
Ever since their creation, mandalas were used as symbols for meditation, concentration, protection, a personal maturity process, and healing. Different religions, philosophies, and cultures, all use different techniques of mediation when using mandalas.
Using a mandala can help you to find yourself, or the path you wish to travel.
Spending time cultivating harmony and peace within your heart. From this, you can find gentle words and thoughts that can show you new paths or directions. If you are passionate about coloring and want to try something different, try to color a mandala and find the purpose of a mandala for yourself. Have a look at the benefits of coloring a mandala. They are widely available for about any design you could imagine. -
