Thanks to my daughter, Heather, I am living this month in NJ in an apartment. The apartment is in her house which is across from a nature preserve. I estimate the preserve to be 1500 acres. It has 5 miles of paved trails plus even more unpaved trails. With a little help from PhotoShop, I pretended to use a plant identifying app to confirm the poison ivy. The smart deer is telling me I should have identified the plants under my feet first – OH MY!
JEB – on my morning ride
AS YOU SWING THROUGH LIFE – If you leave TGO for the season, find a nature preserve – you might think you are back in TGO!
Tough iPhone shot – only get silhouettes – one on inside and other on outside on screen out my back door!
AS YOU SWING THROUGH LIFE – let’s be curious about others – be friendly to others – and just in case keep a screen between you and others.
I designed this art with my 2nd cup of morning coffee.

AS YOU SWING THROUGH LIFE – retreat when it makes good sense – try to never get into a situation where fighting makes sense. That is my Brethren thought of the day!
Deer love on the trail ride.
AS YOU SWING THROUGH LIFE –Take a trail ride – Smile

I was a thinkin’ so I wrote: I read that the average office worker in NYC is caught on 70 different cameras each day. So, I say to this golfer “Don’t even think about it – There are 7 sets of eyes watching you.”
JEB 08 03 2024 – Don’t even think about it
AS YOU SWING THROUGH LIFE – Always do the right thing and then you can smile at the camera!
In TGO our un-named ponds come and go – by Plantation Drive behind the Post Office this morning – It all depends on the rain! This one had a just little PhotoShop help. But the ducks were there.

AS YOU SWING THROUGH LIFE – Go out looking for ponds that were not there yesterday – smile!

We just have a lot of trees down all thru our property. I’ll get them cut up when it cools down some. Here are some pictures of a male Scarlet Tanager we found this morning. Dave
