The camera was flummoxed by this little star.

nice focus on the bumble bee but not close enough

Can not blame the camera for this one – I just didn’t get close enough.

And, the major lesson learned today. If you put the camera in your purse and don’t turn it off – you end up with LOTS (and lots) of pictures of the lens cap!

Took the day off from work to go listen to the 2015 financial presentation to the residents of the old folks asylum. What did I learn? The rates are going up 3.5% next year. They have been too aggressively controlling wages of the workers and must play catchup or lose too many people. 69% of their budget goes to staff wages and benefits. They are going to get a new bus. (that was greeted with a round of applause.) 30-35 units are freed up every year when residents move “to the next level” – i.e. – die. They no longer contract out the food service operation. This was a cost saving move. They hope.

Then I walked home. And went to the pool.

Enjoy Every Sandwich – fish tacos.
