I'm leaving on a jet plane..beautiful weather here, and I think I'm traveling into the rain. Go figure. LOL. I'll just have to find the beauty in whatever the weather, and pray my camera stays dry!
This week's hunt
Yellow,
something that makes you smile,
ancient/antique,
splash,
in the sun
Here are my items.
ANTIQUE
|
This chair used to belong to my mother. She made the needlepoint that's on it, and I love the delicate carvings that are on it. |
IN THE SUN
|
This nasty crane fly was sunning on my plants. He best enjoy his time, for the yard has been treated, and there should be no trouble from him, or his friends. They do quite a job destroying lawns. |
YELLOW
|
This is the Oregon state flower. Called Oregon grape. I've never really cared for it, and often wonder how it was chosen. I know it's native to this area. Not all that pretty. Leaves that are poky like holly, blooms that are bright, but just not my favorite.Perhaps when Lewis and Clark first explored this area, there was this shrub all over everywhere. |
THINGS THAT MAKE ME SMILE
|
Tough to choose this one. So much makes me smile, but this little monkey is absolutely hysterical right now. 19 months old, and on the move. Putting words together that make me laugh out loud, or just smile. The looks he gives are priceless. Here he's swinging from the backstop during his brother's baseball game. |
SPLASH
|
Rain splashing in the very dirty bird bath. Once the weather cooperates this will be on the "to do" list
Ashley who sponsors the hunt, said goodbye to her grandmother yesterday. She's in heaven and in a better place, but please say a prayer for her and their family. It's so hard to say good-bye

Love your set this week! Your "things that make me smile" shot is so cute!
Thanks MG, I just learned what my state flower is... how did I not know that?! Anywho, wonderful captures this week! Loving the composition of smile, & your mom's rocking chair shot is beautiful (as is the chair)!
Your message to Ashley is so sweet. We are praying for her, & so sorry for her great loss. God bless.

Amazing set and interpretations this week! Your rocking chair is beautiful... and I love your In the Sun. The pic in your header is lovely. :)
Lovely photos. I really like your splash shot.
Gorgeous smile shot, they are so precious at that age aren't they?

Great set! I want to curl up in that rocker on the porch and read a good book!
Safe journey! Your antique rocker is beautiful.
Gorgeous light on that pretty rocker. You little guy looks adorable and I'm sure is a handful. Our flower here in Maine is the lady slipper.
Okay, I don't even KNOW him and he makes me smile too :) What a cutie! Safe travels, and enjoy DC. I think you are gonna get rain...but so much to do there despite it.
That little fellow made me smile, too! LOVE that chair.
That rocker is beautiful. What a great face you caught on "make me smile". I just keep going back to look!
Great pictures. Yellow is wonderful and smile is so like a small boy. Thanks
Love the rocker and the smile!
What a beautiful chair! I love the things that I have inherited from my grandmother. I love beautiful needlepoint and the time she spent on making things beautiful.
Love your smile pic too!
Amazing crane fly - what a beautiful capture.
Beautiful job all the way through - love antique.
I, too, am in love with that rocking chair. So pretty!
