I love when this lily blooms in my garden – always in the heat of July.

Movie Time
We went to see The Lego Movie as part of a promotion from our financial planner. Great fun. We tried a selfie but ... Gammy isn't great at it.

Encouraging Sign
These SM East seniors have re-formed the East Against Gun Violence Club in response to a frightening spring lockdown drill that they didn't know was a drill and an experience at the National Speech and Debate tournament in June when there was a suspected active shooter. They spoke to Grandparents for Gun Safety. A group from Sumner and Wyandotte schools also spoke and are organizing. When you get the youth interested in gun safety, I feel hopeful.

Between Earth and Sky
Kansas City native Elaina Wendt Michalski used clay to create this large sculpture in Antioch Park to express the experience of standing in a forest surrounded by trees. It's part of Johnson County Parks and Recreation Department artists in residence program. The sculpture will be on display through December.

More Water Sport
Lowell was happy to show me her new swimming skills while Vala preferred swimming with Barbie mermaids and ponies. 😎

Hanging Out
Scott and I in 1957. He looks precariously placed but he was the 5th kid so maybe they had relaxed safety measures. I like that the lawn chairs are all there in the living room. The beginning of our optional seating.

Water Day
The grandkids had a blast at the splash park, especially trying to fit into the waterfall/jelly fish feature. Adam is barely visible. Vala would only back in.

Sea Nettle Jellyfish
Sea nettle jellyfish at the Denver Aquarium. One of the photos that wouldn't post while we were there. The jellyfish were cool to watch.

Welcome Visitor
I love it when goldfinches come to my feeder. It's a hummingbird feeder but the birds like to drink out of the water (which is there to keep ants out of the nectar).

Leaping Coneflower
I planted this Cheyenne Spirit coneflower last year to attract butterflies and had one bloom. This year it has kindly decided to leap into action. Mostly attracting bees right now.

Early Morning Gateway
This lovely sculpture in Meadowbrook Park looks amazing anytime but was lit up beautifully in the early morning. Made of glass and steel it is illuminated all night or by natural light in the daytime.
