 Heliotrope blossoms . . . so pretty and delicate.

 Sunflower bud getting bigger every day.

Day 164
 My dad, my sister and my step-mom . . . family get together on Sunday.  Dad looking pretty good for 80.  I have way more gray hair than he does.

 Still snow on the mountains mid-July.

Days 148-154

Day 148 
 Weeds or not, there is something magical about these feathery "wishing flowers".

Day 149
 Foxglove curving towards the light . . . such beautiful wildflowers.

Day 150
 The last of the tiger lilies . . . standing tall.

Day 151
These lovely "Angel Eyes" pansies are extremely fragrant . . . nature's perfume.

Day 152
Waiting in a construction line-up on my way to White Rock  . . . fireweed wildflowers  capture my attention and my camera captures them.

Day 153
Way back on Day 85, I posted a shot of some onions that had sprouted green shoots like crazy.  I planted them as I had read that they would produce a lovely onion flower in time.  And here it is, just starting to open.

Day 154 
Been taking the time to kick off the sandals, go barefoot and get grounded.
