Did you say Buck Moon?
Today, I saw 6 deer in the park. This includes a buck that had just started getting it’s antler. The antlers had the velvet and weren’t that largest yet. This made me think of pictures I took last week of the July full moon. July full moon was on Sunday July 21st, 2024 and called…

The state park is unique in the sense that it has mounds created between 200 BC and 200 AD. They were formed by the Adena culture. Here’s what I’ve been able to glean about the mounds in cliff notes… I summarized the above information from link – plan MDS.indd For me the illustration really hit…

Cardinal Greenways Rail Trail Indiana
We had an enjoyable but hot day (mid to upper 80s) on Indiana’s longest rail trail (62 miles). The trail started out as part of C&O railroad and was discontinued in 1985. In 1993, a nonprofit company Cardinal Greenway Inc. was created and purchased 60 miles of the trail. In 2011, the 60+ mile trail…

I think I found your problem, Ma’am
Sooo … there is a rumor that men are not good about reading instructions. There might be some truth about that, but you did not hear it from me. This is what the Sphinx Moth picture taken on my Samsung Galaxy A14 phone should have looked like. The photo still has too much processing, but…

We found Mothra; where is Godzilla?
The actual size of Mothra was slightly smaller than shown in the Godzilla movies. Mothra was only about 1.5 inches long with a 2 inch wingspan; I guess the film crew zoomed in like I did … or the people in Japan are really tiny. This is a zoomed in picture of a Sphinx Moth.…
