On the back road to my house I spotted these bovines milling around. Tomorrow, come back and check out a “seed picker”

Today I am poaching on Jelistar’s territory by posting this picture of the entry way to the new Longhouse on the Peninsula Community College Campus. On our field trip last Tuesday, we were able to go inside and take a peek. The official opening was on Monday . As you enter, there is Native American art work displayed in the foyer. (thumbnails)
 

One would think I am really hard up when I end up posting a picture of a worm…but it was after the storm on Tuesday…they were all over the ground and this one was a big one…couldn’t resist.

I happened on this pretty rainbow Tuesday afternoon. 

I was tagged by Kim of Seattle and didn’t get the information on my page until late afternoon. If you want to know more about me than you might have gleaned from my profile and previous posts, (Is there anyone who doesn’t know I’m I’m crazy about my grandkids?) take a look at yesterday.

Most days by the time the sun comes up, I’m in my classroom, setting out books, running an agenda, starting the coffee, doing the dreaded “paperwork”, but today was a field trip to the main campus and I stopped by the local Starbucks for some coffee. Look at the show the sky was putting on. It was only after I got home I spotted the bird in the sky. 

Whoops! Apparently I was “tagged” and neglected to follow through…O.K…. 8 things you might not know about me.

1. Despite the fact I go to work early, I am not really a morning person. My most productive time is probably in the evening.
2. I had a grandma who lived to be 106. (good genes)
3. I ALWAYS ring when I go through the metal detector at an airport (artificial hips and one knee)
4. My minor in college was history. I still have a passion for the subject.
5. One of my mottos is “have passport, will travel”.
6. I lived in Germany in the early 80’s. Were it not for my late husband saying we had to go home and be sensible, I’d still be there.
7. I love to play games…even ones I am not good at. I think it goes with my wanting to learn something new everyday.
8. I collect and wear antique jewelry. It all started with Grandma’s rhinestone pins.

Now…who to tag? If you have not been tagged…and would like to play…tomorrow is your day! Tell us 8 things about yourself that we might not know.

I stopped at a friend’s home this last week and as I was walking up to the house, I spotted this deer resting on the lawn. He/she waited until I returned with my camera. 

I posted this same scene last year. The sky is different…the trees are the same. Which one do you like best?
