Capital Cities. This week's Lens-Artists challenge, hosted by Viveka (My Guilty Pleasures), asks us to consider the topic of "Capital". While the interpretation is wide open, I have chosen to share photos from Capital Cities. Amsterdam. Amsterdam has bicycles EVERYWHERE. I liked the colors in this photo as well as the creative basket on the [...]
The Color Red. Red has a way of standing out. Boldy proclaiming its presence. For the Lens-Artists Photo Challenge this week, Patti (Pilotfishblog.com) has challenged us to a scavenger hunt, visiting places and seeking out the color red. We also have the option to "visit" our archives, which is the route I've chosen this week. [...]
What's Up Lately. Episode 009. Hey everybody!! I hope that you've had a lovely weekend! Ours was a four-day weekend around the Thanksgiving holiday. It made it a little hard to keep track of the days. 11/11 and Autumn on display. In my last episode of "what's up lately", I mentioned the fact that it [...]
What's Up Lately. Episode 005. It's been a busy couple of weeks since I was here with my last update. That update coincided with my husband's birthday. Smith Mountain Lake. We decided to rent a boat and spend part of the day cruising around Smith Mountain Lake. The lake is the largest man-made lake in [...]
What's Up Lately. Episode 004. I can't believe it's already Monday morning! I got out of bed at dark thirty (technically, dark fifteen). Miss Sunshine takes her math and engineering electives at a different school. They are on block scheduling, so every other day I must drive her to her high school where she [...]
What's Up Lately? Episode 002. Since I'm mostly popping in with updates, it doesn't feel right to call them "Friday Faves" and also they may not always fall on a Friday. Today, however, it does. And since I need different titles... Episode 002. Secretly I'm hoping that Episode 007 will have something really exciting to [...]
What's Up Lately? Life. It's taken all the little snippets of time that I could steal away from daily life just to pop in here and share a photo for the past few weeks. I figured it was time to fill you in with "what's up lately." Missed those? You can find a Naples, Florida [...]
Friday. I can't believe that it's already Friday! Not only that, it's the last Friday in April! Friday Faves. Most of my week has been checking off boxes...but they have made me feel productive so they also qualify for my Friday Faves. Over the weekend, I became more deliberate in my efforts to get [...]
Friday. Who's happy that it's Friday?! Since there's no rain in the weekend forecast, I sure am! Friday Faves. I'm going to delve right into my Friday Faves. Vacation Clothes. I have slightly less than three weeks before I head to the U.K. and am still missing a few clothing items I'd like...namely, black [...]
Friday. It's Friday! I don't know what that means for all of you, but for me, it means we've officially entered into Spring Break vacation mode. Which for Friday, means cleaning, squaring things away, and packing...and then driving up to D.C. so we can catch an early flight tomorrow morning to Aruba!! Friday Faves. [...]
