~ November, 2023 ~
It is beyond the middle of November (it's the 19th today atually) but we are finally getting the November blurb and picture out there!! We hope
it's been a good month so far, and that the last 2 weeks are safe and happy ones for everyone as well. Have a wonderfully delicious Thanksgiving,
whatever that turns out to be menu-wise, and we will all see you on the other side. We have had rumors of snow before Thanksgiving, and after it (!),
so we will try to keep the camera rolling. Happy November all around!!
~ October, 2023 ~
Welcome to October on the Driveway!!! We are so delighted that October has wandered by again. Pumpkins, goblins, falling leaves (we will get
that page updated (but most the links still work)), sweaters, cider, things that go bump in the night! It couldn't be lovelier! So settle in, turn on (or off, up to you) the lights, and be
prepared, for anything ~

We are back in the BER months!!!! Welcome to September on the driveway ~ It may be meteorological autumn, but our first "heat wave" of the summer is
on its way this week. We will take it, if it means then we head into cooler temps, changing leaves, sweaters, and the joy of falling into
autumn. Welcome back BERs! :)
~ August, 2023 ~
It is August on the driveway, and around the world (as seen from the driveway) and beyond ~ Enjoy the lazy crazy dog days of summer (unless you are
one of the millions under the heat dome, and our hope for you is that you find shelter and get through the rabid hyena days of summer you are having!)

Here is it July 4th weekend already! Things have gotten a bit out of hand at driveway cam so we are going to work on at least keeping the
camera up and running! Regular blurbing when it's possible. Until then we hope everyone has a safe and a happy 4th of July. Stay out of the
heat, and the storms as best you can, don't set off any new fires with firecrackers,
and here's hopeing everyone can still count to 10 on their fingers come Wednesday morning. (and we mean in base 10.......)
:)

Today Karen is turning 75!! We came up with lots of clues to let people guess, but then decided perhaps we should just say it out loud, and proud!
We hope it's a wonderful year for you Karen, filled with lots of adventures and good times We are hoping to figure out how to get some cake
and ice-cream to help you celebrate ~ if anyone has any ideas or is in the neighborhood... please stop by!! :) And now it's on to the
views and the rest of the planet here on Juneteenth and Karen's birthday!
That is what 75 roses looks like! In case you were wondering. :)

A very Happy Father's Day to all who have filled that roll through the years ~ you've made a huge difference in all of our lives. It's a sunny
day on the driveway but elsewhere
the weather is still being destructive so be careful out there. If
you have to stay in, or even if you don't, here is
one of our favorite google games
to play with, or in honor of, your father! Enjoy!!!

Welcome to a sunny Saturday (so far) on the driveway.
Elsewhere the storms continue
and we hope everyone is able to stay safe in those areas. We are going to check in on
the Statue of Liberty
today as it is the 138th anniversary of the day the boxes containing the statue arrived in New York harbor. It was a giant puzzle to put together then,
so we'll
do a puzzle too! :)

A Very Happy Flag Day ~ as we celebrate the day, back in 1777, that Congress adopted the Stars and Stripes as the national flag.
We will check in on some of our favorite flags to watch.....
here, in D.C., this one
in New York city,
and this lovely view
decorated for flag day
"I marveled that a Rose with 'American' in its name could be so old. I thought such roses were usually 'modern' " ~ Carolyn Parker (In 1886, American Beauty was introduced into commerce in the USA from a plant collected from the garden of American historian, George Bancroft. (later identified as the 1875 French-bred Hybrid Perpetual Mme Ferdinand Jamaim (!)))("old" is relative. lol)

Running late (we got mesmerized by the puppies) so we will just quickly say that on this day in 1509 Henry VIII married his first wife Catherine of Aragon, and, in 1982, "E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial" was released. Who knows what will happen today, that we might see on one of the views, that will be in the blurb either 514 years from now, or even 41 years from now! If you see something that fits the bill... let us know!! :)

~ Friday June 9th, 2023 ~
The weekend is here and, our air is almost clear. Time to celebrate! Or at least time to wander the views :)
Puppies are a great way to celebrate,
indoors and outdoors! so we
will start there! Have a delightful day ~
