The Daily Pixel: A month of pixels!
So… I lost track of an entire month. Again. Oops! But as the photographic evidence below suggests, the month did, in fact, happen. So there. Enjoy an entire month of Daily Pixels.
#159- June 7- Rrrruffffff.
Fierce old man dog. |
#160- June 8- Loving my new paint
Next time I decide to paint, I’m hiring someone. Or emptying the room first. Maybe both. |
#161- June 9- The half-Dexter
So our giant old bed frame isn’t easy to move… so I painted around it. Talk about upping the complexity of a paint project and the amount of plastic swathing needed! |
#162- June 10- Meeting the RV-1
At the Golden West Fly-In and Air Show, I got to meet the Vans RV-1, the prototype for the entire line of Van’s aircraft including T’s formation flying plane, the RV-4. I got to sit inside the cockpit and that plane is DINKY. I couldn’t even extend my legs completely. |
#163- June 11- Summer means Little League
The second best part of Little League games (besides the unbelievably cute baseball players): Sno-kones! |
#164- June 12- Happy gardenias
After a few years of pruning problems, I’m pleased to report that the gardenias are happy, happy, happy! (Now, stay that way!) |
#165- June 13- All hail the burnt sugar
I may have to dedicate an entire post to this creme brulee, it was that good. |
#166- June 14- Happy Flag Day!
And happiest of birthdays to my dear Alesha and Graden. |
#167- June 15- Moose’s Tooth memories
We arrived in Alaska and promptly found sustenance in the from of this Moose’s Tooth pizza pie–half “American” meat and cheese, and half apricot/chicken, a strange but delicious combination. |
#168- June 16–Cooper Landing, Alaska
A most picturesque dinner spot. More photos of Cooper Landing and Moose Pass here. |
#169- June 17- I’m on a horse
Well, I was. We had an awesome trail ride in Seward. Photographic evidence here. |
#170- June 18- Boarding a big boat
The Coral Princess in Whittier. See pictures of Trouble Taking a Party Bus AND mooses and bears. |
#171- June 19- Gorgeous sunset.
We enjoyed a day of scenic cruising and saw the Hubbard Glacier. |
#172- June 20- Glacier Bay!
More of the prettiest pictures ever, here. |
#173- June 21- BEARS!
The best part of Skagway–bears! And the Yukon. And the White Pass Railroad. See more. |
#174- June 22- Glacier Walking
Want to see a zillion phenomenal glacier pictures? I know you do. Click here. |
#175- June 23- A birthday kayak adventure
Paddled the Tatoosh Islands on my 30th birthday. Too cool. |
#176- June 24- A day at sea.
As part of the birthday splurging, T and I had the best massages ever. Sigh. |
#177- June 25- Why my pants don’t fit. Again.
So, I may have had waffles and corned beef hash every single day of the cruise. I would say “But you can’t prove it,” but I’m pretty sure you can what with my pants barely fitting again. Dang it. |
#178- June 26- Harvest!
Home from vacation to a yummy tomato harvest! |
#179- June 27- Post-cruise detox dinner
This is what you eat after a week of indulgence. |
#180- June 28- Oops, I forgot my picture!
Saw this on Facebook and it reminded me of living in Phoenix. Need tips for beating the heat? See here. |
#181- June 29- Ha!
This magnet made me laugh! |
#182- June 30- Birthday cupcakes!
Threw myself a little birthday party with delicacies from Icing on the Cupcake in Rocklin. |
#183- July 1- Bounty
Happiness. |
#184- July 2- Only slightly sinister
Goliath’s in his dark place because he really hates balloons. And I really love throwing (floating?) them at him. Because I’m a bad, bad dog mommy. |
#185- July 3- Heirloom loveliness
Check out those gorgeous Cherokee Purples, my first heirlooms. |
#186- July 4- Happy Fourth of July, I forgot to take a picture!
We enjoyed the most minimal of festivities because Mr. T decided to catch pneumonia. Boo! |
#187- July 5- The bounty continues
I think my gardening friends find me rude for posting these photos on Facebook, but I can’t help myself. It’s tomato Christmas around these parts! |
#188- July 6- Marvelous Mehndi
In advance of attending my first Indian wedding, I got to take part in a Mehndi night, where the women folk get a henna tattoo on their left hand. |
#189- July 7- Blessings to Geeta and Max!
#190- July 8- A homegrown salad
Three different types of tomatoes, lemon cucumbers, bell peppers and basil from my little garden. |
