LittleBit Visit!

What a fun time it is to be able to re-explore the world through their eyes while everything is still new and exciting! Remember running across the field just because? Or curiously watching a bug hop from leaf to leaf, being amazed by an airplane taking off, spinning around in circles until the world tips over ...

Having grandchildren around is a great reminder to stop and smell the Pacific Water Parsley!

Perseid Meteor Shower

I was so excited to set up for a night photo session on Lands End bluff that I started too soon and burned myself out before the actual event happened. According to the media (ABC News) we're right in the middle of the Perseid Meteor Shower! I was able to capture some wonderful night star images, but never lasted long enough to actually capture the meteor showers.

It was just me, the owls and the coyotes overlooking the Salish Sea ...

 

Wow.

Point Defiance Zoo

Even on a sweltering hot day (probably the hottest all season) we were able to find some fun things to do with Renee' and the LittleBits at the Point Defiance Zoo.

I think their favorite part of the zoo was riding in the blue stroller while Capo gently rammed into the sidewalk barriers and landscape rocks creating an impromptu amusement ride!  Many of the animals were hiding in the shade requiring "special binoculars" to view them.

Such a gift to be able to see the world through their eyes ...
