Posted these recently for the theme of “action” but it was so delightful watching these two “flower girls” burn off some energy waiting for the dang wedding to start, I thought I’d share them again for movement.
I made the mistake of looking further in my files and found this…
And this…(not a very clear shot but I have waited for YEARS to see one of our wild turkeys fly!!)
But then I remembered the wonderful train trip we took from Seattle to San Diego…
Can’t stop now. This challenge had stimulated some serious movement in me!
Next, I found this,,,
Normally quite docile, this batch of my bugs is very fast moving and cleaning their home has become a two person job. James has to watch them while I refresh their terrarium!
They usually just wait patiently on the screen lid while I clean, except when..and I’m not making this up…I play Pink Floyd. Then they line up like these guys, and no kidding, will sway in time with the music. Little line dancing Extasotoma’s!! (One time I even tried posting a video of this dancing phenomenon on YouTube. Hey, I thought it was cute. But was turned away because I didn’t have the rights to Comfortably Numb. I didn’t know. It was just playing on Pandora while I was cleaning.)
And then there is the movement you don’t want to see!!
Or lastly (honest,) the movement that absolutely CANNOT happen!!!
There’s my submission for this topic, Movement!
I had fun!
Excellent choices for movement!! Those bugs…you’re brave, I don’t know if I could have them as pets!!
Originally gifts from my young grandsons. What’s a Gramma to do?
I went back to my childhood seeing the little girls dance. It’s soooo innocent.
What a delightful response!!
What is that streak of light ? A satellite reentering ?
It’s a weird contrail at sunset. Light hit it just right! It does look a bit alien though…
Wonderful photos of the sweet dancers – getting the sense of the movements between each one. 🙂
I don’t know what I would do if I got bugs from my grandson. Oh my!!
Probably what I did…
“Gramma, wanna hold them??”
“Uh.. Well, sure…”
It creeped me out totally!
And then I fell in love with them.
I wrote all about them here:

I enjoyed this backstory post 🙂 Great photos with the stuffed animals too.
You are definitely the coolest gramma I’ve ever heard of!
By the way, I have a photo of myself with the same exact haircut as your little picture (I forget w I at those are called…)
Oh and Thanks!
All of these photos are just so much fun! What exactly is that flaming ball falling from the sky? Thanks for joining the challenge!
That was a sunset on a contrail… at least,as far as I know…(Twilight Zone theme playing here..Do do do do do…)
