There is beauty in all things. I found these fantastic fungal growths in my yard. The 'skeleton' of a cicada is especially interesting to me because it's still hanging from the bottom of the shelf mushroom, frozen in time, 'eyes' still glowing green in the sun.
My Aralia spinosa tree is in full, beautiful bloom right now and thousands of bees are working overtime in it. When you walk underneath, the tree sounds like it's humming. Loudly. It's really amazing, so I took my camera and a step ladder outside and took some pictures.... here's one of them.
UPDATE: There is now a separate site dedicated to free-use Tea Party signs and slogans! Visit Tea Party Signs to see them all.
What better way to celebrate the 4th of July than gathering with like-minded, freedom-loving patriots at the Lansing Capitol for a Tea Party? As you can see, turn-out was strong for a holiday event.

Psalm 24:1 - The earth is the Lord's, and everything in it, the world, and all who live in it.
Psalm 19:1 - The heavens declare the glory of God; the skies proclaim the work of His hands.
The earth is a gift from God to man. We should praise and worship it's Creator, not the creation. He has placed so much beauty all around us; I see it everywhere! If you look closely at these photos, I hope you can see it, too.
