Photo-a-Day Week 17

Boy, Sunday slipped by quickly. I am almost into Monday as I write this. The weekly wrap-ups keep me posting regularly, which is good. So, on with the editorializing of this past week's photos.

Day 111-
We had doctor appointments on Monday, which meant an earlier start to the day than our usual leisurely coffee and then breakfast. The skies were full of wispy clouds, and I wanted to get a photo of them.

Day 112- 
Sometimes I am at a loss for what to get a photo of for the day's photo. My husband suggested our cabinet pulls would make an interesting photo. We had these made when we renovated our home in Virginia. Moving to South Carolina, we decided to bring them with us. They are fun.

Day 113- 
Spring is really coming on strong, and many plants are blooming. I couldn't resist getting a backlit image of the Evening Primrose, Oenothera speciosa.

Day 114- 
Spring wildflowers are coming on strong. This one, Toad Flax, is abundant in the fields and meadows, creating a blue hue. Toad Flax, Linaria canadensis, is native from Canada to Texas and all across the South.

Day 115- 
Dirty windshield, hit the washer button and the spray across the unwiped area leaves an interesting pattern. Black and White makes it stand out.

Day 116- 
We went to an event on Friday evening. It was a Celebration of Life for a friend and neighbor. One of the other attendees was telling me how she likes my photo a day posts. I told her that my goal is to get a photo of something that people will say, "That's a cool photo". She was very generous saying I had accomplished that, and I reminded her is it only April! Hoping you find these photos to your liking. This photo is the garden of the place where the event took place. Once part of the Riegel Mill, home to the superintendent of the mill, now serves as place for gatherings, weddings, showers, High Tea, and for our friends- a Celebration of Life.

Day 117-  
While in our mechanical room looking for something on the shelves in the back hallway, I noticed the cobwebs on a Victorian house that my girls played with when they were little. Our grandkids are about at an age where they may like to play with it when they come to visit. In the meantime, I think it needs to be dusted! It is a Playmobil dollhouse, quite lovely.

That's a Big Cobweb!

That's a quick wrap-up for last week, come again!!
