The International Space Station last night. I almost missed it. It was thundering and lightning off to the west, and mostly cloudy. I was about to give up, when suddenly it appeared through a hole in the clouds. It caught me by surprise, so I didn't even have time to set the timer on my camera. I just swung the tripod that way and hit the shutter button, hence the squiggle at the beginning of the trail.


The sunset Thursday night. We've sure been having some colorful sunsets this year.


The gardens are really growing this year, with sufficient rainfall for a change. And especially since I've got most of the potato bugs squished now.


My favorite place to read my books.


The yellow day lilies are blooming, but not the orange ones yet.
