Happy Monday, everyone!
I’m away from home for a second week, part of our annual summer getaway to St. John’s and surrounding areas. I had planned to blog a few Sunday Snaps yesterday, but time got away from me while visiting family and friends, so here we are. Monday Snaps it is!
I couldn’t resist Cee’s Fun Foto Challenge from last week, even though it’s the last day today. Orange in the great outdoors is often a vibrant colour, as the following selection of my photos will attest.








You’ll be back there enjoying the golden evenings before you know it, kitty. ❤
All beautifully composed. I have a thing for bees!

Yes, I agree, bees are wonderful and need to be protected.
Thank you, Frederick, and thanks for dropping by. I hope you’re staying safe over there!

Orange has a way of saying, Life is good! What made this post so much fun, was all of the different shades of orange and all the locations where orange is found. Love those carrots.

Those carrots tasted even better than they looked. I wish I had a bunch of them right now.
Thank you, Rebecca, for your lovely feedback xx

Meg, I’ve seen a couple of the orange-belted variety this summer, though I’ve never seen them before then. Maybe they got lost? Or migrated? 🙂

These are so pretty, Jennifer. The blue background for the butterfly is gorgeous. As is that second sunset. But you know the winner for me is little Vivian adding a special touch to your last photo. That is the sweetest picture.

They are. I’m looking out my window and see no orange at all despite my huge backyard with lots of plants. I’m not sure what that says!

Hi Jennifer – I love seeing orange in nature. As you say, such a vibrant color and you’ve definitely captured it in these pictures. I can’t believe how perfect those carrots are and happy to hear how good they tasted. We tried growing carrots two years in a row and the results were very average. In fact, they never got to be as bright as the ones in your picture or taste even close to store-bought carrots). Hope you are enjoying your time away!

Hi Barbara! Those carrots were probably the best I’ve ever tasted in my life. So sweet and tender! I wish I had more of a green thumb. I’m trying to grow herbs and that’s turning out to be a challenge. Oh well.
I am enjoying my time away. Always nice to have a change of scenery and a change of pace. 🙂

I was very excited about my herbs and this morning I noticed that some creature chomped down on my basil. The rest are doing okay, though.
