Don’t think of it as a lawn filled with weeds. Think of it as a lawn decorated with festive yellow polka dots. Problem solved.

Today I feel a need to share something beautiful.

Also while in North Carolina, a friend of mine took me to Lake Crabtree where we had a nice meander all over the place to the tune of about 4 miles. It was a lovely day and we happened upon a group of people competing in a radio controlled sailboat race. They were very competitive. And a little shouty. The boats were fun to watch, though.

Another picture from my walks in Research Triangle Park, North Carolina during a recent business trip. Between my hotel and the meeting site, I cross a little bridge with a lovely creek. It’s a very pleasant sound and sight.

This is my first attempt at writing a post via the iPad app, so forgive me if this is wonky. I am on business travel in North Carolina and had time to walk along a trail in Research Triangle Park. It is so very different than walking a home, where I can see for miles. This stand of pine trees is smack in the middle of RTP.

I often see seagulls on the Columbia River – which is always a little odd because I’m rather far inland (many hours!). One morning there was a huge flock in the middle of campus – a rare sight for me! Like a kid, I had to startle them into flying and then I captured this with my phone camera. I guess the phone camera is why there are shadow birds in the image, but I think it looks cool.

Not all the animals I see while I’m out are wildlife or barn animals. In fact I see a lot of dogs but they are usually barking and running and not interested in posing for a photo. This cat was enjoying a sunny spot and watching me carefully. Technically I suppose it could be a barn cat, but it didn’t look like it was into working.

At one horsepower, this is clearly not a violation.

While I walk by the Columbia River in the mornings, I see a lot of different wildlife. Usually it’s birds – a wide variety in fact. However, sometimes I see adorable rabbits. Every single time I see one I squeal BUNNY! . … Because I’m five when I see a rabbit.

During a recent walk by the Columbia River before work I spotted a heron on a rock, head moving to and fro, looking for breakfast. Though I wish I had my camera with large lens, he was still nicely silhouetted against the river. You will want to click to get the large version of these photos or he will just be a dot on your screen…
