    I have absolutely no defense against little girls in pigtails. None. They are just too cute. I surrender. :)

    Beautiful shots! Our outdoor time, being in southwest Florida, is completely limited to water adventures now. It is so very hot out there! We stick to the beach, water fountains and the pool. Or inside, playing with our nature collections and making art from the great outdoors.

    Greetings, we are finally back from vacation. What a great summer you’ve had. I’m loving all of the beautiful nature photos and your girls look so busy and happy. I have to say that your little sea horses have grabbed my heart and are so adorable. It’s so fun to see what you’ve be doing while we were away and I look forward to being back and reading your blog. Be well.

    Mondays, somedays – whenever we get out it’s a good day. This summer’s heat has been a challenge to our explorations, but we’ve been trying out different water holes – rating our favorites. A waterfall got top scores for teens and little ones.

    Your pond pictures are beautiful – and such a great place to find animals and insects.

    We have been having lots of nice outdoor adventures, but I have no idea if it’s happening on Mondays or not. My last post happened to be Sunday…

    Surely any day is a nice day to be at the pond!

    At the moment, celebrating Monday on Wednesday, sounds good to me. I love the photo of the bee. So shiny and black, with just a splash of furry.

    We did our outdoor challenge down in the harbour. Sun, water, boats and plenty of fresh air.

    It is your choice whether to play or not, but I still wanted to include you in the blogs that most inspired me and that I wanted to share with others.

    I love rambles with boardwalks . . . Weds/Mon – who cares? It’s summer.

    We crossed a hiking length/height barrier over the weekend and had an amazing time doing so.
