All of these graduates at Washington State University, done, finished. Perhaps they were truants here and there, slept in, skipped a class, were out sick, learned from the book or on line. But they are done!
Taken in 2017.
For the Ragtag Daily Prompt: truant.

I have one tulip blooming among the iris and squill. Yellow on green and blue, a color feast.

Just what the camera recorded, no computer changes. My daughter and I were camping and I was photographing the sunrise in 2014.
For the Ragtag Daily Prompt: lemon.
The rhododendrons are starting up, especially the red ones! Glorious!

I got Sol Duc and Elwha as very small kittens, 2 pounds and 1.7 pounds, in fall 2021.
These are from September of 2022. Siblings and bunk beds.
For the Ragtag Daily Prompt: pets!
I took this hiking Mount Townsend in May, 2017 with my daughter and a friend. Do you see the wild rhododendron in the shade?
The top of Mount Townsend is at 6260 feet, here. It is beautiful switchbacks through woods and then opens up at the top. The altitude gain is 3000+ feet.
The first time I hiked it, in 2000, it was clouded at the top. We were disappointed and ate lunch and napped. When we woke up, the clouds had dropped and we had an amazing view of the Olympic Mountains from the top of the ridge. A marmot kept us company further along the ridge as well.
The rhododendrons look like they are just floating in the woods. Airborne!
For the Ragtag Daily Prompt: airborne!

It is not summer, but my magnolia is nearly done blooming for this year.
For Cee’s Flower of the Day.
I was at an AirBnB for a few days last week. The great blue heron landed in the top of the tree in the next yard before sunrise. Then she stayed there waiting and enjoying the warmth when the sun was up. Eventually an eagle headed for the tree. The heron took off and the eagle landed.
The next two mornings I did not see an eagle or a great blue heron in the tree, perhaps because it was gray and cold and overcast both mornings.
That is why we have such big trees in the Pacific Northwest, so that eagles and great blue herons can build massive nests.
For the Ragtag Daily Prompt: landing.
