Yesterday's hike - we saw whales breaching, waterfalls and ate our lunch overlooking the ocean. In spite of the very humid day we had a great hike.

7 years agoI think many of us wish we could go hiking with you, Casey! The Canadian Maritimes are one of the few places I'd like to visit. Maybe someday.
I'm not well-traveled (far from it), but I find photo ops on the property from time to time.

Comments (4)There used to be an adage, "corn should be knee high by the 4th of July." Farming methods have changed that. Better seed, nitrogen additives, etc. This corn is only a few days from being picked. The folks who have this sweet corn plot do 4 plantings of corn. They sell beginning at 3:00 p.m. and sometimes are still picking when I get there and I have to wait. It's a bit more expensive, but the freshness is there....See MoreI'll Show You Mine if You Show Me Yours Sat July 25

Interesting wasp.

Comments (16)I admit I'm a touchy-feely fruit and vegetable buyer. I only bought one of the Florida variety years ago and I selected it based on its firmness when held gently in my hand. I use the same formula with the California and Mexican avocados. Lately I've had a couple of bad choices with the Mexican avocados so I'm sure it wasn't your/our selection process. I, too, was surprised when I opened them. They may have been picked too early and synthetically aged for market. A difficult process to control. Overall...so far this year, our market here in the northeast has been less than its usual excellent quality and there isn't the abundance of produce that we usually enjoy. I'm blaming it on the global weather problems of last year. And sobbing at the prices the markets are charging for what is available. I never attempted guacamole with the Florida avocados. My instincts told me then that the fruit was too watery to make a good blend. But I readily admit to being a fussy guacamole eater. :-) If you decide to try it...please let me know how it turns out....See More

Nicole, how fun to be in a photo class. I love your picture. I have liked taking them in the past because they do get you out and taking lots of pictures. Having assignments always helped me progress.
Susan, your picture is gorgeous too, very striking and I agree with you about Casey's hikes and the pictures that result!!! I would love to go there too someday.
Mine is from a trip to Alaska about 12 years ago.
