Planting a lot more this year on my balcony sure paid off with so many more hummingbirds! Here's a visit from a friend just now. 😍

The Scarlet Pimpernel. One of Jane Seymore's finest and the Pimpernel (Anthony Andrews)may have been my first on-screen crush. Ian Mckellen played the antagonist just as brilliantly as he plays the good guy.

My 15 year old son just bought this authentic muppet (not sure if it was ever used since it's incomplete). It's the prized piece in his collection, though!

Thank you for covering this. Hard to express the feelings I had standing vigil. As I took this picture, though, a woman broke the silence, saying, "And I'm MAD! FUCK TRUMP." Here here sister.

Twig!!! We have groundhogs too, and they're all named Twig. Our neighbors live trapped 7 last year and took them on a cruise to the island across the river. 🥰 Recently spotted a new arrival this year.
