Getting behind can be a pain but fun at the same time. You see if I wasn't behind on these posts I would not be looking at pictures from a whole week ago. Looking back even a week is fun sometimes.

These photos come from last Sunday, a whole week late. But so what. You didn't know that till I told you and I get to enjoy going through them again.

Last weekend we were joined by my brother and his family for a trip to the lake. It was to windy to go fishing but not to windy for a picnic and some playing.

The Dragon flies out in droves. Alex pointed out to me that those sparkly things on the branches way above our heads were all dragon flies sunning themselves. I pulled out my lens to take a closer look. Sure enough they bejewel the trees like some lovely art work.

I took this picture for two reasons. One I like these birds, they make me smile with their bright colors. Two: it reminds me of what Suzie said to me as one stood in our path at a distances. I had pointed it out to her telling her to look at the bird and she responded with "No, that's not a bird, that's a gold finch."
