Monday (18-July-2011) — New Jersey

Indoor Summertime Nature in New Jersey.

My New Pet?? If I don’t have anything better to shoot for my “image of the day” I can always find one of the house centipedes to pose. I just wish that they were outside and going after what ever is nibbling on my tomato plants.
