We're up at the cottage for a few days and therefore do not have online access. I managed to put a few Posts of the Week choices together before leaving. Due to time retraints, there are fewer than usual and I'm uncertain if we'll be home in time for me to catch up on and select any for next week. Time will tell.
The photo below was taken around Frank's neck of the woods. I was trying to capture a photo of the Monarch butterfly which was posing nicely on the Goldenrod. Just as I snapped the shot, it took off in fight, giving me this happy mistake.
Tomorrow, I'll take you on a walk in my own part of the world. We're way overdue.
And now, without further delay, here are the Posts of the Week. The icon below is yours for the taking if if your blog post is named as a POTW.

Hey, thanks, Hilary! Have a great time at the cabin, and hope you get in some good spooning time!
Thanks so much for the POTW for my sweet little girls, and for pointing me to several posts I haven't yet read. Enjoy your time at the cottage! I look forward to walking through your neighborhood again!
You have to be fast to catch those butterflies. Neat how it flattens out.
Love that happy mistake. It looks rather good!!! Enjoy your time away.
Hey,
Thanks for including me here. My hat is off to the nice lady who left the mouse mama and her brood in peace. May we all be aware of our karma footprint as this lady.
God bless, friend.
Thanks Hilary!

Thank you for the lovely gift of the POTW, dear Hilary <3. It's always such a treat to meet new visitors by way of your blog. And it always takes me by surprise. I'm glad the gifts from this past Sunday delighted more eyes than my own! Cheers!
Nice round up, Hilary. And beautiful butterfly but that goldenrod makes me want to sneeze!
I have read them all some for the second time...all great and all deserving.
Beautiful beautiful pictures Hilary.
Enjoy your break.
I've always wanted to see the places where Monarchs cluster in great groups, I think that must be an amazing sight. They're a pretty and decorative butterfly.
