July 13 – Beautiful sunrise this morning. Again. The whole image. (See also below) 

July 1 - There's a place in Taos that's really cool. It's Overland Sheepskin and it's a great place to walk around. There are many stores and a restaurant there. Here are some water lilies and fish in a pond on the Overland compound.

July 13 – Beautiful sunrise this morning.

July 12 - Well this is kinda cool. This is evening. Looking south. The sun was shining on a rock outcropping behind Three Peaks and they look white. Also the mountains beyond that are in haze and not visible. You can find other pictures of Three Peaks somewhere on here that show the distant mountains.

July 16 - Beautiful New Mexico sunset.

July 22 - another interesting plant I saw near the parking lot of our gym. Google says it's a tamarix plant. Or salt cedar. It's interesting. This is a close-up of the flowers. From what I’ve read it is an invasive species and New Mexico is trying to eradicate it.

July 20 - Beautiful sunset in northern New Mexico.

July 26 - This is the screenshot of the butterfly from my Video Reel that I posted earlier today. It's a Mourning Cloak Butterfly. We were in the Carson National Forest by the stream.

July 29 - Our adorable kitty cat Pumpkin resting. He's 10 years old. He's sitting on the freezer on our front porch. It's amazing I got him sitting still.

July 29 - And here's Sparky. He's 16 years old. Don't mind the pile of clothes in the background. Note the white tip of his tail.

July 29 - Interesting swirling, circular cloud formation this evening

July 30 - A cactus pretty close to our home out on "The Mesa" in Northern New Mexico. The cactus might be a Escobaria vivipara. I'll keep checking to see if it flowers. I hope so. Note in August: It hasn't flowered yet. It probably won't.

July 30 - A mushroom not too far from our home. I have no clue what kind of mushroom it is. It's flat. I should have taken a pic from the side. It's been nice with the rain, so we're getting mushrooms! I wouldn't even think about eating it. I know nothing about mushrooms.

July 31 - This dog belongs to one of our neighbors. Not the neighbor that had the other two dogs. She's cute but she won't let us pet her. She comes up to us and then runs away. She still just a puppy. A big puppy. I'm sure she'll grow more.

August 1 - Beautiful sunset.

August 1. Sunset. Welcome August.

August 2 - Beautiful sunset cloud, but I'm facing away from the sunset toward the east. The picture doesn't actually do it justice.

Above and Below: August 6 - Our two kitty cats together on my bed. Pumpkin is 10. Sparky is 16.

Today, August 14, is my daughter Erica's birthday! Happy Birthday Erica! I also made a video, which is available to watch on my Facebook, Instagram.

Above and below: July 24 - At the Rio Grande River, Gorge and Bridge in Northern New Mexico. See my video on Facebook and Instagram too!

August 18 . Our fuzzy cat Pumpkin in a Prime box. He likes it in there.

August 29 - My husband Bert with flowers. I wanted him to hold them still for me because it was windy. Turned into a cool picture.

August 29. I Love These Flowers

August 30 - We drove to UNM Taos because we wanted to see the library in it's new location. This is the building where they are now located. Here's also a pic of a cool round window facing some of the other buildings on campus. I didn't get a picture inside the library because no picture would do it justice. It's beautiful! And very roomy and very comfy.

August 31 . Bert and me in among yellow flowers out near "Two Peaks". That's Three Peaks in the background. These flowers are called Verbesina encelioides (Golden Crownbeard).
