I thought I was going out early enough to avoid the heat. WRONG! It was still very hot. At first I didn’t see much at all, but I just had to look more closely. There was lots to see, even somethings I didn’t want to see, like a big bull snake slithering along the sidewalk, or another snakeskin in the grass or the dead goose on the rocks. But there were lots more things I enjoyed seeing, which made it a good walk indeed.
One of my neighbors always has such a beautiful garden, and she had moths, bees and a beetle or two in her garden that captured my attention.








Up the road, and on another lake, one of my other neighbors, who also always has a gorgeous garden, had a curious dragonfly perched on a stalk that was posing for me as well.

It was a good day, despite the snake. Despite the things we like, there are always more things we do like. Focus on the good things in life and make everyday a great day.
Iβm so glad you didnβt take a photo of the snake!

I thought about it, from a VERY safe distance. At first I quickly walked away in the other direction, then I walked back with trepidation, but he had already slithered away.
