HOWDY !! Hope your Spring is Blooming along !!
I shared my “camera/phone” with a guest photographer the other day on a walk in Downtown Aurora.
See what you think. I told him as we started walking, “just let me know if you want to take a picture”.
Surprisingly he was pretty selective :)
Here they are: (I added the notations PhotoBySam)

| I took this one :) |
Here are a couple of pictures I took that need to be shared :)

| No more Skeletons in that closet?? :) |

| Is there a politically correct term for a “man overboard dummy” ?? |
It turns out that this past April’s rainfall was quite a bit above average here in Aurora and even more so in Chicago. The reason I mention that is because I have a Video to share that I am calling “May Flowers”, you know, “April showers bring May flowers”. And despite the ridiculous number of pictures I take I did not take a picture or short video during a rain shower, just a couple that show some small puddles :) I realize now that a “rainy” photo/short video would be nice to start off a “May Flowers” video, but instead I have a few “puddle” photos and a very full Fox River :)I hope you enjoy my “May Flowers” Video created from my photos during, you guessed it, the month of May. I have tried to be accurate with the flower/tree names but sorry to say, no guarantees. It is a good idea to pay attention as you watch it, could be parts of the Final Exam sprinkled (pun intended) throughout :)
Next up is another “Screenshot Video” created by MyShadow, this time from the YouTube channel “Amazing Places On Our Planet”, in the Sahara Desert (remember I did a screenshot video in Post #219 about Corsica hiking). Definitely not how I pictured the Sahara to look like, and this is just a small section, the overall variety is most likely “endless” ?!?!
Moving on, does it mean I am getting old when I use a word in conversation that a 45+ yr old person hasn’t heard of?? Remember Post #220, we only use several thousands of words out of a much larger selection and evidently my vocabulary has at least “one” rare word :)?? Raise your hand if you know/use the word “nomenclature”, not everyday but maybe once or twice?? :) At least I was “heard”, it even generated some laughter :).
By the way, if you need an excuse for anything right now, there is a Full Moon (unless you are reading this after May 31 :)
Oh, check this out………
Ciao for now !!
