My day started off by taking one of my dogs to the vet in the pouring rain this morning to get her yearly shots. We both got soaked. (My socks are just now drying out) Oh! And nothing like riding in an enclosed car with a wet dog. I will be wishing for this rainContinue reading “White Rain – Snapshot of the Day, No. 69”

The Magnetic Rat Head – Snapshot No. 68
This is what happens when I wait until 9:00 p.m. to take my photo of the day. I’m left with refrigerator art. Joe has a great story associated with this little guy. I’ll leave it to him to tell it, though. He still needs to write that book of his. It will be full ofContinue reading “The Magnetic Rat Head – Snapshot No. 68”
Japanese Lamp – Snapshot of the Day, No. 65
This was my mother’s lamp. She is a Japanese Geisha girl. (The lamp. Not my mother.) As long as I can remember, the lamp never worked. My husband fixed her a couple of years ago, so I bought a red lamp shade for her and the rest is history. She makes me smile whenever IContinue reading “Japanese Lamp – Snapshot of the Day, No. 65”
Blowing Glass – Snapshot of the Day, No. 62
I went downtown at lunch to buy a gift card for a neighbor, and stumbled across this cool glass blowing studio. It’s called Ignis Glass Studio. With their help, you can make your own glass ornaments. Pretty cool! My intention for this photo was not how it turned out. I wanted to focus on the bowlsContinue reading “Blowing Glass – Snapshot of the Day, No. 62”
Key to New Orleans – Snapshot No. 61
My husband and I honeymooned in New Orleans. We love that city. We have a New Orleans-type restaurant here in town called Blue Orleans. It was not open yet when I walked by this afternoon, but I happened to see all of these keys hanging on the inside of the door. I thought that was veryContinue reading “Key to New Orleans – Snapshot No. 61”
The Produce Section – Snapshot of the Day, No. 60
I have been trying all day long to get my Snapshot of the Day with not much success. I think what my problem is I’m starting to hesitate too much. I ask myself, “Is THIS really what you want your photo of the day to be?” And then the moment passes. I sometimes take otherContinue reading “The Produce Section – Snapshot of the Day, No. 60”
Biking to the Pub – Snapshot of the Day, No. 59
It was very cold today – at least to us who have had a mild winter. It was actually spitting snow here, but you can’t tell. This is a local pub downtown called the Honest Pint. I thought it was humorous to find a bike parked in front in the middle of the afternoon. I guessContinue reading “Biking to the Pub – Snapshot of the Day, No. 59”
Fathers and Sons – Snapshot of the Day, No. 58
This is a photo of my husband and his father when Joe was five years old. I found it the other day when I was looking for something else. I love this photo because it has that “Sixties in America” feel to it. A car, a pair of blue jeans and two sets of sunglasses.Continue reading “Fathers and Sons – Snapshot of the Day, No. 58”
Nesting – Snapshot of the Day, No. 57
I love birds. They are little gifts from Heaven. They always cheer me up a bit no matter what mood I’m in. Bird nests are so masterfully made, too. If one ever falls out of a tree or bush, I pick it up and put it on a window sill. This one I’ve had aContinue reading “Nesting – Snapshot of the Day, No. 57”
Southern Furniture Wholesalers – Snapshot No. 56
Apparently this was the South’s largest wholesale distributor of home furniture. I’ve live here my entire life, and I never knew it existed. The only reason I found it was because I got turned around looking for something else today. I love old warehouses like this. I can picture the former employees working inside allContinue reading “Southern Furniture Wholesalers – Snapshot No. 56”
