Tennis Fans – Snapshot of the Day, No. 223

The main reason we went to New York was to watch a tennis match at the U.S. Open. Joe has always wanted to see a match, so we decided – why not? We saw the Bryan brothers lose, and then Andy Murray lose. This image is from the Andy Murray match. I took a panoramicContinue reading “Tennis Fans – Snapshot of the Day, No. 223”

Times Square – Snapshot of the Day, No. 222

I’m back from a wonderful trip to NYC with my husband, Joe. I had no way of uploading my photos of the day, so I’m doing them all now. They will be uploaded in the order they were taken to keep with my theme. I chose to make this one black and white as aContinue reading “Times Square – Snapshot of the Day, No. 222”

Choo-Choo Fish – Snapshot of the Day, No. 221

I drove the block or two from work today over to the Chattanooga Choo-Choo to buy a souvenir, of all things, for my cousin in New York. I actually did find something not too touristy, yet Southern at the same time. I meant to ship her some locally-made MoonPies, I just never got around to actuallyContinue reading “Choo-Choo Fish – Snapshot of the Day, No. 221”

Chickenman Floats – Snapshot of the Day, No. 220

This is our dog Murray’s favorite toy – Chickenman. Named for my father’s favorite radio serial by the same name. It cost .99 cents at Wal-Mart several years ago, but it’s worth a fortune to him. He LOVES this toy. He offers Chickenman to whomever walks by – but he doesn’t REALLY want you toContinue reading “Chickenman Floats – Snapshot of the Day, No. 220”

Pick of the Day – Snapshot of the Day, No. 219

We went to lunch today at Big River after church today. At one point, I felt someone looking at me. I turned and saw this extra cute little girl leaning over the back of the booth staring at me…..with her finger up her nose. I instantly dug inside of my purse for my cell phoneContinue reading “Pick of the Day – Snapshot of the Day, No. 219”

Pulling Back the Curtain – Snapshot of the Day, No. 218

We went to Atlanta today for the opening game of college football. Alabama (our team) – Roll Tide! vs. Virginia Tech at the Georgia Dome.  We stopped for lunch at Maggiano’s Little Italy – our very favorite Italian restaurant. I saw these kids on the other side of the curtains and had to take their photo. We hadContinue reading “Pulling Back the Curtain – Snapshot of the Day, No. 218”

End of the Day – Snapshot of the Day, No. 217

We’ve been renovating my old house. The one I grew up in. And it’s taking a lot longer than we had originally thought. But we’ve learned a lot, and for the most part, have had fun. But it’s about time to go. We are about finished; but mostly, we are just tired. Joe and hisContinue reading “End of the Day – Snapshot of the Day, No. 217”

The World in 3D – Snapshot of the Day, No. 216

I decided to go to our IMAX theater’s gift shop today to buy some presents for my cousins. I had forgotten how beautiful the lobby of the place is. I think the world sculpture was created by one of our local artists, Jim Collins. But don’t quote me on that. I can’t find anything onContinue reading “The World in 3D – Snapshot of the Day, No. 216”
