A stepping stone which OC helped me paint...
Colorful...
OC rescued a dragonfly from drowning in our wading pool. The dragonfly needed some time to catch his (or her) breath, and so hung out on the rescuer's hand for about 10 minutes, allowing me to capture the moment in a half dozen shots...
OC explains the dramatic moment of the life-saving operation.
A close-up on our subject.
No wonder my memory card filled so quickly! How many shots of a dragonfly does one need? There are more that weren't posted. But, this is a pretty cool looking dragonfly.
And finally, we get to summer camp. OC spent a week in the Cascades where, among other things, she rode a BMX bike, canoed in a lake, shot a bow and arrow, and rode around on an inflatable banana behind a motorboat. Of course, I don't have photos of any of these activities, but I do have one of her camp counselor.
This is Melanie from New Zealand.
This is us on the way to camp:
Not one to waste time, husband brought his laptop in order to work out his raceway design. OC enjoys a classic Beverly Cleary story.

Love the photos! What an awesome dragonfly! Hope we can still connect again before summer ends.
The camp cabin picture makes me wonder if she went to the same camp my older kids attended for several years and the younger ones will go to next year.
