Critters for this week and...

 At the Black Mountain Tailgate Market May 18,2024


While Amelia was telling me about the Westminster Dog show awards, I saw these canines walking by.

Sorry I missed the photographer's name for this great Road Runner shot showing his iridescent feathers.


And a bonus peak at the sky Thursday afternoon, as I awaited a thunderstorm to appear. But 4 hours later it still had not made it over the mountain ridge. But I didn't water the flowers outside, hoping that rain would take care of them!

Today's quote:

At every moment, we always have a choice, even if it feels as if we don’t. Sometimes that choice may simply be to think a more positive thought.

    1. We've been pretty fortunate with their owners following market rules.

  3. Hello Barb,
    I love the cute dogs! The Roadrunner photo is awesome, I saw one on my Arizona trip, it ran across the road so fast, too fast for me and my camera.
    I like the think positive quote! Thank you for linking up and sharing your critter post. Take care, have a great day and Happy Memorial Day weekend. PS, thanks so much for leaving me a comment.

    1. It was a good catch by that photographer, wish I'd saved his name.

  6. I enjoyed these very much. You may certainly use a screenshot of my rainbow with the quote you liked: with my happy permission. Have a beautiful Sunday friend. Aloha

    1. Thanks Cloudia. I hadn't even thought of doing the rainbow as well as the quote, but that's very gracious of you to offer permission! Soon, to be shared here as well.

    1. Some of those clouds whisked on by, but later in the day we did have a lot of rain. Thanks for commenting!

So glad to have your comments...whatever they may be. I'm one who likes to reply sometime or another, so others will see that; or you might happen back sometime and see what conversation might have started.
