This was a delight to find at the base of the neighbor's tree, so appropriate for the season. It ought to be home to some fey creature.

The song was amazing music and words both and became "ours" then and ever since.

Birds are an important part of my life and have been for a long time now. Of course people feature in my birding life too.

Well deserved! It is lovely and perfect for the theme of the poem.

I've been going through LOs at the O starting with oldest and just found one that Eva @tanteva needs to see! :D

This is very much a triple self portrait with me at three times in life with three significant people in my life.

DH and I don't really celebrate Halloween but I like seeing all the decorations around the neighborhood and I love all the pumpkins on display. Here's a sample of what I mean:

I don't know that these are best traits, but they seem to be how folks see me.

The idea of a thread running through life is what brought me to doing this page.

The 16th birthday party is still a special memory despite being so long ago. Playing music all evening is what I remember the most along with lots of friends.

Vera, thank you so much for this lovely surprise! My DH will also like this for his photo.

Watching the red moon rise was amazing. We also were looking for Jupiter and Saturn and while we saw them, DH only got photos of the moon and not them. For the double scraplift I lifted these two LOs: First Day by FLKaren https://oscraps.com/community/media/first-day.354302/ Sand and Sea by...

I masked the greenest parts of the cicada then made them really green. The more normal color is in my photo on the left.

This was a nice birding visit with a few surprises. Cormorant photo is by DH, woodchuck is mine.

A female Belted Kingfisher is easy to tell when you see the complete reddish band across the chest. I enjoy them, their calls and their fishing dives. Photo is by DH.

Nancy, these are powerful pages that really tell the story. Sorry for all the damage caused and your basement too. But glad you have the story captured.

I don't remember if this was the panorama feature of my camera or if I just put the two parts together myself, but this is one LO I did with a panned image.

I share your worry about Nancy. I know there is a lot of water near her. Please let us know if you learn anything!

@felis I think we both fell behind and had done it not just one year but multiple. I struggled to belatedly finish the last year I did (2018). But then I got a coupon for a free Shutterfly book last year and just took a selection of my pages for 2020 and did a book to remember that pandemic...

Afternoon all. I'm starting the thread so Chris will know we were good and kept it up while she's away. I had a genealogy thing on Zoom this morning and in a bit we're off to the senior center to do that genealogy group in person again. Still scary, but it worked last month. So, what did Chris...
