SmugMug > popular today > I was in the neighbors yard the other day and I looked over into our yard and I could see Jezzy through the fence and bushes. She was running around everywhere with her nose up in the air,she could smell me but she just couldn't figure out where I was!

I missed posting and commenting yesterday due to Christmas shopping!! Hopefully I will get caught up soon!

No, I didn't make a trip to visit Lady Kate, but when she saw Maeve with her tiara, she felt the perfect accessory was (of course) a boa.  Next thing we knew, the UPS man was at the door with a box containing not one -- but two boas.  One for Maeve and one for grandma.  And since I didn't have my own tiara, she provided that too.  And just to show you how grateful I am, I'm sharing this photo with everyone -- much as I dislike being on this side of the camera.

Thank you Lady Kate and Kamryn!  Maeve and I were having a ball!  (December 15, 2009)

SmugMug > popular today > 15.12.09 - Multi-tasking :)

Am I the only person that works on the PC while watching the TV? I'm just so busy at the moment. If I'm not out and about working I'm on the PC processing photos. At least we got the Christmas decorations up at the weekend. All I've got to do now is all the Christmas shopping!

SmugMug > popular today > "Spatterdock"
Day 288, Wednesday, December 16

This week we've had spiders, Iguanas, alligators and birds.... so let's add a plant.
Spatter Dock is different than the common White Water Lily.

When mature, the 2 inch flower is always and only "half open"... and both the flower and the heart shaped leaf can exist submerged, at water level or rise above the water.  The leaf can grow to 8-16 inches long and 10 inched wide.

Spatterdock can be grazed by deer, consumed by beavers and muskrat and the seeds by ducks and other waterfowl.

From Wiki....Spatterdock was long used in traditional medicine, with the root applied to the skin and/or both the root and seeds eaten for a variety of conditions. The seeds are edible, and can be ground into flour. The root is edible too, but can prove to be incredibly bitter in some plants.
