may snapshots

I want to get back into the habit of sharing everyday photos on this blog (and not just my 365 project, which has already done so much to get me back into photography and blogging). Here are a couple of snapshots from the entire month of May.

• A new puppy at the dog park. Her name is Toby
• Man-of-War washed up on the beach. A family was gathered around it and I warned them not to touch it, as there are even nematocysts in the head
• One of our new Lionfish, given to us as an anonymous gift. Other facilities have been so kind in the wake of our disaster
• Laura mixing some cookie-dough
• Beach Koda
• We've started going to trivia again. I love spring evenings
• Earth eyes
• Sometimes a day calls for donuts (and iced coffee)
• Drawing with sidewalk chalk is definitely on my list of summer activities, even with mosquitos and humidity trying to force me inside
• A beautiful candle set-up in the jellyfish exhibit during our putt-putt fundraiser event
• A couple of old-school golfers. I felt pretty sassy in my plaid shots, argyle socks, and my name tag reading "Arnold" (Sean was Palmer)

Snapshots

• A Texas (aka alcoholic) Cherry Limeade at a beach bar after work
• The happiest cemetery I've ever seen
• Up close and personal nature
• Exploring in my princess cape
• Tiny flowers with big hearts
• J.J. Abrams was here
• My love for cacti knows no bounds
• Someone worked hard on their home
• Birdwatching is my crack
• A Great Blue Heron flying overhead
• One of my exploration buddies (he was cray)
• My very first Scissor-Tailed Flycatcher I saw in Texas!
• Argos playing in the water on an evening walk
• A glimpse of Houston

I was productive tonight and actually did real things like laundry and uploaded 80% of my 2000 photos to my computer! So here are some snapshots of Texan life. I will attempt to post about my Houston road-trip I took two months ago to see Bruce Springsteen and go to the downtown aquarium at some point, as well as other photos I've taken from my wilderness wanderings around Corpus Christi!
