August is slowly coming to a close.  I hear the cicada at night, so that means fall is in the wings.  I'm not ready for winter, although I guess without the contrast of winter summer wouldn't seem so glorious.  

The pictures I'm contributing to #LIL today represent recent events in my family.  We have a new dog, a beautiful puppy.  He is white and young, and lively. We also have a cat, a 16-year-old cat. This gent is still spry.  The dog wants to dominate, but is learning that the cat has claws for a reason :)

Some of these pictures were taken at a local historic site, Sagamore Hill, President Theodore Roosevelt's home.  Some were taken in Europe, where my daughter and granddaughter recently traveled. Some pictures were taken at home. A few of these pictures were featured recently in blogs I posted in other communities. Today I make them available to all of Hive, as copyright-free resources.

In all, the pictures represent some of the good things in life, some of the happier days my family has recently enjoyed.  I hope my readers get a sense of the joy--and wonder--I get when I look at these.

If you would like to contribute to the LMAC Gallery, or borrow from it, procedures for doing so are outlined in [this post](https://peakd.com/hive-174695/@shaka/the-lmac-summer-special-lets-build-the-lmac-image-library) by @shaka.

Have a great August, everyone. Peace and health to all. Thank you for reading my blog. Hive on!
