Every single one of my pictures was rotten today. I just couldn't hold the camera steady enough, so they all came out blurry. This is the least blurry of them all. I really need to get a tripod.

Donald and I left Raleigh very early this morning, 6:45. I told him welcome to the world of being a Mills. As soon as we got to Wilmington, we went to Linda and Keith's house to drop off the dog, load the boat and head out. We spent a delightful morning sitting by the ocean. It felt great to get some salt water on my skin again. Here you have Donald, his sister Linda, and brother in law Keith.

The magnolias are in full bloom! If you've never smelled a magnolia, you don't know what your missing.

When I went outside to take pictures tonight, this little wren was singing away. It's not the greatest picture, but this was one happy bird.

I apologize wholeheartedly for today's picture. It's been a long day, and by the time I had a chance to take pictures this slug was about the most interesting thing I could find.

One of the biggest pleasures of spring is seeing all the flowers pop up. These bloomed yesterday.

Remember the cilantro from day 124? Here's what they look like now. They're going in the ground tomorrow.

We've had killdeer outside our office for the last several years. I went out to get a few pictures of them this afternoon. The parent birds were not happy that I was there.

Today was not a good picture taking day for me. I went outside to play around with light settings, and this is the best I got. I do love the blue sky, though.

My high school mascot was the Spiders. Do you think that's why I like to take so many pictures of spiders?

I had just about given up on a bird feeder because of the squirrels. Donald found this shepherd's hook for us to try. It didn't take the birds long to find it. Unfortunately, it didn't take the squirrels long either. Did you know that a squirrel can climb a very thin pole?

Donald brought home some plants from his mother's house this past weekend. This poor mint plant looked pretty pitiful when it got here. Amazing what a little water will do for the soul, or in this case, for the plant.

Six helicopters flew over Louisburg Elementary today. I couldn't get all 6 in one shot, but here are four.

The irises are so pretty this time of year, and I've been playing around with the macro settings on the camera. I like it!

We went to Village Fest in downtown Kannapolis today. One of the local churches was giving away frisbees. As you can see, Thug loves his new toy! (It's rare these days to see him run around like a puppy.)

I went outside to take some pictures of the basil with the camera on macro settings. When I came in, I saw this face. This is way cuter than the basil.

When my sisters and I were children, we would hold a dandelion under each other's chins. If it reflected yellow on our skin, that meant we liked butter. It always reflected yellow.

Storms all over Raleigh tonight. They had pretty much passed when I went out to take some pictures of the clouds.

Hello beautiful little cilantro plants! This picture also marks the very first picture I took using complete manual settings!

The spiders have found my outdoor plants. This one looks scary, but was really about the size of half a pencil eraser.

I've been a little under the weather the last few days and haven't felt like taking many pictures. You get Thug tonight.
