A sunrise this morning. We have a new dog, Sadie, and she gets up early, and that means we get up early with her. You dog owners know that when the dog gets up you better take it outside right away or face the consequences.
A neighborhood skyshot and reflection.
My volunteer gig with the Tulsa Urban Wilderness Coalition is kicking in. It’s Earth Day season. Here is me and my friend Marci at the local electric utilities employee Earth Day event.
And at a community event a couple days later in downtown Tulsa.
And speaking of electric utility, here is there power plant on the Arkansas River.
And the boat shed at Tulsa’s Gathering Place.
Here is my wife Heather. We attended a fund raiser for the local botanic garden. It was called “Sip and Stroll” so that we sipped and strolled, noshed appetizers and talked to people. Our first grownup date in a while and it was fun.
It had been raining in the gardens so the iris’s had raindrops on them. I love raindrops on flowers.
I am linking with Skywatch Friday and My Corner of the World.
…the iris is a showstopper!
Yes, when my dog has to go, she has to GO! Beautiful! I love all of these photos.
I love iris – it’s a beauty!
voilà une magnifique série de photos,et de bien belles sculptures dans ce jardin botanique. Le gros plan sur l’iris est fascinant

Beautiful orange in the sky.
Me gusta la primera imagen. Te mando un beso.
Yes, raindrops on flowers are special. I think all of us who get up early to walk the dog should be rewarded with a beautiful sky.
Amazing sky views. Glad to see Earth Day Event.
Iris flower with raindrop looks Awesome.
Hello Yogi,
Beautiful skies and I love the windmill on the Skywatch blog.
Pretty flower and a lovely photo of your wife at the garden.
Take care, have a great day and a happy weekend.
Glorious iris! Windmills, sip and stroll! I love it!
Beautiful captures.
That’s wonderful that you are so involved in your community. Keep up the great work!
Beautiful sunrise, and that puddle photo is a winner! The Sip and Stroll sounds like it was a lot of fun and enjoyed the “origami” in the background. Happy you are out and about once more.
A nice pictorial record of a busy and fun week — beautiful skies a bonus. Love that Tulsa Gathering Place and the sip and stroll looks like my kind of grown-up date. Thanks for the smiles. I hope to be blogging smiles and beautiful skies again very soon.
My daughter’s dog Bug is the same and usually goes outside most mornings around 5am – ish. I haven’t been a power plant like that for year here, theres one in Huntly but I’m not sure if it’s still operating.
Now that you’re retired, you’ll be very busy with volunteering in addition to your other interests.
Good for you for volunteering. You and your wife seem to be very busy. I also find it very busy in retirement.
