Delightful Lillies...

noreply@blogger.com (LingoVise Says...) — Thu, 11 Jun 2009 19:32:00 +0000

The modest Rose puts forth a thorn,
The humble sheep a threat'ning horn:
While the Lily white shall in love delight,
Nor a thorn nor a threat stain her beauty bright.
-- Walter Blake

Not a Lily white... but quite lovely still despite.

Our Love Bug.... Camera Critters and Pet CPR

noreply@blogger.com (LingoVise Says...) — Sat, 19 Jul 2008 11:21:00 +0000

This here is our Dear Sweet Kaehlyr, she's a 13 year old Miniature Schnauzer.

She gave us quite a scare this week - she fainted/had a seizure and quit breathing.

We're still trying to figure out exactly what happened... but one thing is for sure -

without Pet CPR she wouldn't be with us on this beautiful Saturday morning!

I was only aware of how to do this procedure because my mom has had to perform it on her own dog.
Thankfully! I was prepared. Are you??

Revolving Art Installation... Odd Shots Monday

noreply@blogger.com (LingoVise Says...) — Mon, 07 Jul 2008 10:52:00 +0000

This is a revolving art installation in Yokohama Japan.

My husband grabbed this shot with his cell phone while on a recent business trip there.

He said it was quite visible from his hotel window - 61 floors up!

I just love it!

Stunning Pause... Camera Critters

noreply@blogger.com (LingoVise Says...) — Sat, 28 Jun 2008 12:54:00 +0000

I thought for sure this guy was a goner, after flying into our the kitchen window.
He layed like this for several minutes before I noticed some very subtle movements.

I was able to capture these before he completely regained his composure :)
