    My favorite too….

    October 21, 2015
    Pick a Flavor
    Cherry is “red”, so is raspberry

    I do not remember if it was one of my daughters or one of my granddaughters, but one of them told me their favoritest flavor was “red.” One of my favoritest, also!

    Maple Leaf

    It’s been raining for the past 4 days or so and they are saying we can expect a couple more days of it. Have not shot an image in those 4 days, either. So, here’s one taken from this past October. It has some red in it.

    Shopping

    December 21, 2013
    The Coors Truck

    I’m done shopping! No more for this year. Took my daughter with me last week and she helped me finished it all. Thank you, Monica.

    I met a friend for lunch the other day and arrived a half hour early. So, grabbed the camera and walked around the shopping area. I discovered this truck as advertisement in front of a liquor store. Impulsively, I made four shots and was on my way. Hope everyone has a good weekend.

    Harbor Fish Market

    Harbor Fish Market

    I miss some of the overnights we had on our east coast flying. Having an overnight in Portland, Maine with enough time to head down to the harbor and enjoy a bowl of fresh chowder or fresh lobster. Won’t find this in Wichita or Des Moines or Omaha.

    It’s Red

    February 22, 2011
    The Red Hydrant

    Hobbs or Foster would probably sniff this fire hydrant, maybe leave their mark. I do not sniff it, or leave my mark but I do get down on one knee (the dogs view) and aim my lens at it. It also gets me wonder how many people walk by this hydrant and never notice it. I mean it’s on the sidewalk where someone texting on their phone would trip over it. And, it’s red. So often it’s the simple things we miss in life.
