Classic Summer

Splashing in foutains to cool down, fresh produce at the farmers market, day camp with the girl scouts, sounds like summer! Well we're in full swing here at the end of July. Enjoy.


Kids play in the fountain and splash pad at Rancho Tapo Community Park (that's Lemon Park to all of you Simi-ites!)

Butterflies and Baseball


Lots going on in the baseball world lately, but first let's start with butterflies. A hospice in Thousand Oaks had their annual butterfly release ceremony, which turned out a lot of nice shots for me of people that jumped up and left right away. Without names, I can't run those photos! But I can post them here. :)
