I love nature.  I love seeing bumble bees buzz all around my flowers.  I took these pictures in the spring and forgot I had them.  It's hard to get a picture of a bee because they are so fast and active.  But patience paid off and I got these pictures.

Happenings; Camera broke

We went to Knoebel's today and it was really too hot to walk around, but we had a good time anyway.  I know the kids did. My husband, my oldest daughter Shelly, and I only went on the train, the Ferris wheel and the haunted house ride but it the kids went on more. I packed a lunch and we got a picnic table and ate first, everyone was hungry then, then walked around.  That was the first time I was there in about 15 years and it looked so much different then I remembered.  Anyhow I took pictures but when I got home, something happened to my camera and I can't get it to come on even though I changed the batteries.  Hopefully, I can find someone who can fix it and I can take the pictures off of it and show them.  This top picture is from the 4th of July in my back yard.  Hope you enjoyed your day.
