I am back.

Hello team.

I was away from blogging for about a decade because I had to work. Now I'm back. I have taken a lot of pictures like usual but haven't had time to post them until now.

These two pictures were taken in two different places. The California poppies are from Berkeley Marina. We went for a walk with two dogs there about a month ago I guess. The weather was perfect that day. And the other one is from the fire trail. It was very dry. But it must be much better now after the rain. That's a relief. :)

And these two are from the same place as the poppies. Can you see how nice the weather was? It was a little breezy but in a good way because it was quite a warm day and without the breeze it could have been too warm. You can really see the city. I still feel good just to think about it now. There were a lot of people out there and some bikers on the area that dogs can be off leash. My boyfriend really dislikes the idea that bikes are allowed even in the only area that dogs can be off leash especially when he has Nina with him because Nina doesn't like things with wheels except for cars.

Right next to the city are the clouds and the fog. How lucky we were on that day. Both East Bay and San Francisco.

Now, this is a caterpillar a boy found and he showed it to me. It scared me because even though I know that animal is pretty and harmless, still, I am scared of it. Poor thing had to put up with the boy for a while. I hoped he would let it go finally. I don't think the caterpillar was gonna make it to be a butterfly if the boy took it home with him. :( Poor guy.

I just took this today this morning. There was a pile dog poop in our front yard and therefore there were some flies on a bush just next to the stair in front of the house. They must have been doing something with the dog poop. But still, they looked so pretty. Who cares if they are dirty, they eat their food. Sorry if I have been so gross. Click to see the big picture of that one, it's pretty detailed.

I am always in love with this kind of flower. Now the season of them is coming. I like how luxurious they look. Really, they look kind of grand, classic, anyway, I like them.
