concoction

Pretty color, but do not be deceived...it is nasty and disgusting.

r.i.p.

Various perspectives of the same fence in the historic Morton Cemetery, one of Texas' oldest cemeteries.

banana pudding

Grandma's banana pudding is one of our family's favorite desserts. 

She even makes her own cookies instead of using Vanilla Wafers.

Nothing beats a ride around the neighborhood with the windows down...

Iced tea on a hot day...mmm!

Which is your favorite?

dream house

This is one of the houses I love to look at when we go driving on a summer evening...

mouth watering

love

I love the fact that I don't play tennis in the 100 degree heat...

I'm always looking for tips to improve my photography. I recently read to take random pictures of ordinary things around the house which I often do. And to take pictures of the same thing from five different angles. I often take shots from various angles but rarely five. 

Here I tried the 5/1 tip with a household item: the treasured milk bone jar.

f-oooo-re!

This is for my 3 boys who played in a charity golf tourney today...

Dinner at Sonic...

a blast from the past

Jeff filled in as starter today for our old swim team. Seeing him in his fish shirt, straw hat with air horn in hand brought back some fun memories...

feast

Feast your eyes on this leaded glass window in the restaurant called Feast. 

Very British cuisine in the heart of Montrose...an interesting combination.

trellis

This vine almost looks illegal!

butterfly weed

Monarch butterflies love the color and nectar.

windbells or heartchimes

What's your preference?

straight...

or 

crooked...

nothing but net

Turning the camera at a different angle often makes a shot more interesting...

After a crash lesson on shooting in Aperture mode and using the external flash, Nathan shot this picture of Molly cuddling with Patriot in his fort (i.e. under the coffee table).

Then he learned to kick it up a notch and focus on Pate's paw, creating a shallow depth of field.
Artsy.

end of the rainbow

100% chance of rain.

Pots upon pots all shiny with a summer shower...

Vibrant colors...

as well as beautiful muted shades...

rain, rain go away

A little too wet to use the tire swing at the nursery.
