Today's photo challenge

 

No matter where I am, or the season

My mind's eye finds a reason

to see mountains in all their glory.

They are my happy place to go exploring.

Thankful today.

Dear Auntie HiC,

A limerick is a humorous, five line poem with a strict AABBA rhyme scheme, and a bouncy rhythm, making it easy to memorize. Many nursery rhymes are written in limerick style.  

We composed limericks (with a little help from ChatGPT) for Katie, Precious, Auntie HiC, Mom, and ourselves. Hope you enjoy them!

HAPPY ST. PADDY'S DAY TO ALL OUR FRIENDS 

WE ARE LUCKY TO KNOW YOU

NEAR AND FAR

DEAREST O'Kat, O'Rocky and O'Cali and O'Kit

AUNTIE O'HiC adores this post x 1000000000

thank you so very very much.  

well done to you all

Dear Auntie HiC,

Breaking News: The Hummingbird Spring Migration has begun!!!

It’s never too early to begin eagerly anticipating the return of our cherished hummingbirds!

Ruby-throated hummingbirds will arrive in NE Georgia in early April.

Due to unforeseen circumstances, we won’t be able to make our trip to Colorado this year for the spring migration. However, we’re hoping to head west for the fall migration. Fingers and paws crossed!

This beauty was at our feeder in Colorado May, 2021.

We’ve observed black-chinned,  rufous, and Anna’s  hummingbirds in different locations, such as Utah and Oregon.

I absolutely adore watching hummingbirds. Here I am, on one of our trips to Colorado, enjoying these tiny, jewel-like creatures!  I hold purr-fectly still, not even twitching a whisker.

Please keep us posted on the arrival of hummers in your neck of the woods.

❤️ Rocky 

Dearest Rocky 

Auntie HiC has a new 5 lb bag of sugar, and I am beyond happy to be able to offer food shelter and admiration to these little Jewels.  They make me so happy
