Lis's Project 365

Doug and I enjoy having dinner outside in the summer. It’s not very buggy on our deck, and we get to enjoy the evening sky.

I know most people don’t like pigeons–“rats with wings” is what people call them. But for someone like me, who enjoys observing animal behaviors, they are a perfect subject, as you can get quite close to them. For example, pigeons may mate for life, but still engage in various courtship rituals, like chasing each other around on the ground. It’s pretty funny.

I have no idea who wrote this on my whiteboard, but it really made me smile and made my day that much better. So, thank you, whoever you are!

From a distance, all I could see were the black necks of these Canada geese (not Canadian geese!!). As I got closer, I realized what they were, and wondered what they were doing on the edge of the channel.

this is so very wrong on so many levels…

With this many people working, it took no time at all to shuck 4 dozen ears of corn.

Clambake was a grand success, with yummy food, picture perfect weather and lots of good friends!

We celebrated Mud Day at work with lots of dirty messy fun. I had a great time mixing up this pool of mud with my feet, and I encouraged these three girls to do the same. Good times.

There’s a new installation at work–photographs of caterpillars. Which may sound a little “huh?” but these images are stunning. Here is my own little effort, but if you want to see the images in the exhibit, you should come check it out; you can look here for a preview.

while I did not find what I was actually looking for at today’s market, I did enjoy walking around looking at all the tasty produce and bright flowers.

at Hemlock Gorge on the Newton/Needham line. The bridge is aptly named, as even the slightest sound bounces back clearly.
