I Like Thursday # 463 skies, books, hula hoops!

 

blue skies over the driving range

it's summer y'all... in case the 100 F. temps didn't convey that.... Summer in Colorado is hot hot hot. 

the fields are full of wild growth creating vistas

we are at a higher altitude than Denver even, and the sun takes full advantage of thin altitude. 

the lawn ornaments might melt


some might have given up!

Found: sneakers (at last)

I think I have finally found sneakers that feel fairly good (although not a lot of arch support)
legs may appear larger than in real life!
These are RYKA brand, cushy from the first wearing with room for toes

 Audio books turned into movies on hallmark

I love Jude Devereaux and now this trilogy is turned into movies on Hallmark. 

Across time, love continues through many lifetimes

Our conversation starter this week

are you able to  hula hoop? as a child, did you or a friend have one and learn to use it?  What do you remember about them? 


I had one like most people my age, but never mastered it. Along with walk the dog using a yo-yo, LOL


I tried, and practiced and never got the balance.... Mine was bright pink, maybe even made a shoop-shoop sound, and was frustrated that my friends could do it. I actually still wish I could do it! 



Me (saying to my first poodle Cole) "let's play jump through the hoop!"

Cole's response  "what fresh hell is this?"

as always, I love creating with fabric, example
the color of the month at rainbow scrap challenge is aqua to turquoise/teal and I notice things along my walks in that color.... eeeeeeeek! 
unfortunately I think it was dead, but it was a brilliant blue
this tree reminded me of the apple tree in Wizard of Oz
trees have a hard life in Colorado

classified notice: 

still seeking a poodle to love
(talked to a standard poodle fostering to adoption this week... but the poodle is over 80 lbs, and yanks people off their pins on walks... reactive to other dogs and prey to the point I'd be injured if yanked by her sideways) I'm open.... appreciate your wishes for me to find a non shedding dog to adopt

watching on video

how do you like a swimming pool? 

this much?  (link to that video)
