Scenic Destin, Florida

Sandpipers on the beach.

Beautiful white sand and blue waters.

Fantastic resort with marina and more.

Butterflies were everywhere... short stop on their

migration to South America.

What a lovely week we spent in Destin, Florida.

The sunsets were simply gorgeous!

Fall - Herbs and Flowers

Check out some of the herbs and flowers growing in my garden.

Little bee likes the basil.

Lots of lemon balm.

A little parsley among the lemon balm.

Rosemary grows year round.

Orange mums in the front yard.

Yellow mums are so pretty.

Purple ones too.

White mums are pretty too.

Deer

The deer have been roaming our neighborhood, but these deer live at the

National Institute of Standards and Technology in Gaithersburg, Maryland.

Notice the yellow tags. One deer is missing an antler.

I wonder what happened!

Maryland Blue Crabs

Summer time in Maryland means eating blue crabs!

Boiled with Old Bay, Maryland blue crabs from Seafood in the Buff, Germantown, MD.

Feasting on Maryland crabcakes at G & M Restaurant in Linthicum, MD.

Fourth of July Fireworks

A few fourth of July fireworks photos...and the rockets' red glare...the bombs bursting in air, gave proof through the night that our flag was still there.

Korean Embassy/Ambassador's Residence

Lucky for him, my husband was invited for dinner at the Korean Embassy/Ambassador's Residence. This was a special invitation for Tae Kwon Do Masters.

May Flowers

April showers did bring May flowers.


I just love the flowers that are blooming this time of year.


What a lovely color!

These fox gloves are beautiful!
