When you go through your day are you suddenly stopped with ideas of what might be a good photo? So you stop what you’re doing, take the said shot, and then (try to) return to whatever it was you were doing… Well, that’s me. It’s kind of like how artists see things differently – composition, color, the way light is hitting a subject, the shadows and reflections… Continue reading “Charleston Window Reflections…”
I just had a funny thought… for some reason, this photo just reminded me of Continue reading “From the Archives: Charleston Sunset”
A photo from the archives – Maine
Every year I tell myself I need to clean out my almost 9,000 images, I start out doing it, then I get busy and forget about it. The following year I need to clean out almost 10,000 images (and this is after cleaning out during the year) – well… now I’m past 11,000 +++ and I need to get control. So as I start to look back at old photos (but not yet clean out) I’ll share a one from the archives… Continue reading “From the Archives: Sunset in Maine”
When we head over the Ashley River Bridge in Charleston – I try to have my camera ready – Continue reading “Heading over the Ashley River Bridge… ahhh, the view!”
🎶The boots are made for walking, and that’s just what they’ll do…🎶
Ok, so these aren’t technically boots – I have had the LL Bean boots as well – and they’re just as awesome. I’ve owned Continue reading “L.L. Bean Boots – An American Icon!”
Who needs a Swiffer when they have a Jack Russell with long hair that everything is attracted to?
Shadows are so cool! If you keep your eye out for normal, Continue reading “Key Shadows”
Barbara Biel creates the most amazing hearts and crosses. No two are exactly the same. They are so special. We have bought them as gifts throughout the years but never bought one for ourselves. Thanksgiving we bought the cross, and I bought the heart this year for Fred for Christmas. They have larger of both that are amazing, but the small ones are magnificent and look so dramatic in the sun, don’t they?
Snow in Charleston photos continue… back to normal posting tomorrow. Please bear with me. Snow in Charleston, SC is a precious thing! I love…

Ah! The Charleston, SC snow that fell earlier this week was amazing. This weekend I’m sharing a few shots. There are so many (ok, too many) – it’s rare, so I had to document, ha ha… Fred and Charlie out and about – Charlie loved the snow – tried to eat a good deal of it. He was wild!
I have to say…
This may look like a regular snow day to most of you well-seasoned-in-snowy-weather peeps. But here in tropical, sunny Charleston, SC this was a rarity. A very welcomed one! I’ve never seen so many people outside enjoying themselves. You have to admit, it’s really cool as a kid, but as an adult, it’s JUST as much fun. We had about 5″ of wonderful snow – some areas around here received almost 8! As I write this…
This post may look familiar to some of you who are on my mailing list. This is the one time I hope no one opened their email, ha ha. I write my posts ahead of time and schedule them to publish (appear online). Well, since this was scheduled for 01/02/18 – I had forgotten to change the year from 2017 to 2018 (this happened in December) – so it published it immediately. I heard *ding* and saw my email.
Ruh. Roh. So please forgive me, won’t be the last time this year I bet 🙄 – Happy Day to you – barbara
Ahhh, it’s that time of year – to set goals – might as well get in on the fun, and join the masses that have goals to eat healthier, exercise more, learn to cook or maybe a new language, read more books the list goes on and on…
Some of my favorites:
👍Learn to say “No” sometimes – it’s OK. You can’t be everywhere at the same time and it’s hard when you’re stretched thin with work, home, life to try to fit in one more thing. Sometimes it’s barely possible. It’s OK to say no (thank you for teaching me this, Mom!).
While at the computer with Charlie in the chair (with his feet dug into my back), I began this blog. I’ve been at it, and have had a daily post appear since 1/1/2011.

My dad sent me this photo that he took years ago (2013), I love it – so pretty with the lights in the tree. Fresh snow and that fabulous blue sky.
