May is usually a long month, but this year it whizzed right on by before I knew it. How can today be the first of June already?? Graduation is in two days and in three I will wrap up my sixth year of teaching. Holy moly! I have too many feelings to process. It’ll probably take me all summer and then I’ll be back at work before I know it. I started clearing out some paperwork at school today and found myself lesson planning in my head for the 2015-2016 school year. Good grief. I haven’t even finished this year and I’m planning for the fall. Typical Patty move. I drive myself crazy sometimes. 😛
Here are my favorite photos from May. I hope you enjoy!
Photo #1
Title: Whizzing By
My blogger friend, Neely, over at www.neelywang.com, inspired me to take landscape shots from the car. I set my shutter speed to 1/4000 and snapped away. So. Much. Fun. (If you click on the picture, you’ll see a bigger and better version!)
Photo #2
Title: Red Rock Canyon
One of my favorite spots when visiting Las Vegas.
Photo #3
Title: Desert Beauty
The rock formations are so pretty. ❤

Great shots! I like the second one the best. The colour in the rocks just stands out nicely =)
The second one is my favorite, too! 😀
How have you been, Patty? Long time no hear, I miss you!!
Hi Angie! I’ve been well, thanks. How are you? Are you out for the summer yet??
I’m doing well myself but busy, busy, busy…and I won’t be out for another 3 weeks. Wish we had your schedule!! 😃😃
Hello Patty, what are your summer plans? Any trips planned? Your Florida Bud, Cheryl
Hi Cheryl! My summer plans include a lot of sleeping and resting. Hah! We do have two trips planned so far…Oxnard in June, then Toronto in August. What about yourself? Any fun plans?
Hi Patty, we were in Greece for our 12th wedding anniversary end of April. It was wonderful. With the children home just summer activities and may go out on the boat to the Islands for a few days. I love Toronto it is the most clean city for one that size. You’ll enjoy it. Keep in touch!
Greece! How fun! I’ll let you know how Toronto goes!
Fabulous shots, beautiful colours 🙂
Thanks, Elaine! 😀
I hope you’re well Patty xx
As well as I can be! I hope you and the family are well. Please give Bob extra hugs and kisses for me! xoxo

The photos are beautiful Patty! Six years! (I still think you should be the head master). xxx
Hahaha, then I would fire all the assholes. And then I’d really get in trouble. LOLOLOL. 😛
Beautiful photos, Patty! I agree–the last few months have just flown by!
Thanks, Nancy!! I hope you’re doing well. ❤
Ooh Patty, these pictures turned out great! So vivid and clear! Glad you had fun taking the pictures — definitely makes a long drive much more fun and bearable :). Where to next? 🙂
We’re heading out to Santa Cruz today, Neely! Thanks again for such a fun photo tip. I hope you’re enjoying our super hot summer! 😀
The photo’s are gorgeous, the color is unbelievable. Looks like a painting.
