Scavenger Hunt Sunday - September 14, 2014

  Hello.  I hope you all had a great week.  It was a nice one here.  Enjoying some late summer weather with temps expected to be back in the 90's for a few days.

So this week I'm joining in with Ashley (Ramblings and Photos) for SCAVENGER HUNT SUNDAY .  The prompts were:  Stripes, Packed, Travel, Too Cute and Favorite.

Since my camera was off for repairs I had to do the hunt through my Archieved Photos this week.

STRIPES:

How about "Stars and Stripes" - I took this shot when we attended the Charlie Daniel's concert.  Those weird black spots you see are crows flying past.

PACKED:

This was one of the old cars in the Car Show we attended last weekend.  I loved all the bags and such packed on top the van.

TRAVEL:

We don't often get to travel during the summer but on occasion we take a short drive (that counts as travel doesn't it) someplace close by.  Early in May of this year Coleen, my mom & I drove up to Tollgate one day.  We were surprised to find that the lake was still iced over.  What was even weirder was that it was only 50 degrees up there but down in the valley which is only about 1/2 hours drive away it was in the 70's.

TOO CUTE: 

Watching our newest cat, Spooky-boo playing with a spinning top of Coleen's was just too cute.

FAVORITE:

I recently took pictures of sunflowers at Coleen's school (see my Good Fences entry this past week) and this was my favorite photo of the sunflowers. 

So that's it for this hunt. -  I hope you enjoyed your stay and will check out the other participants as well.

Good News:  My camera has been repaired and is on it's way back home!!!

Hooray for Friday

Hello Everyone.  It feels so good to be back blogging again.  I want to thank everyone that stopped by and left comments about the wedding.  Also for your patience with me during my blog break in preparation for the wedding.  I missed you all and am very happy to be back blogging again.

Today I thought I would try out a couple of new (to me) memes that I found.  Feline Friday hosted by Steve (Burnt Food Dude).  This is my first time visiting his blog (but not my last).

I also discovered this meme:  Feline Art hosted by Julie (Kitty Par-Tay)

For my piece today I went simple.  I took the above photo, used the Posterize feature on Pic Monkey, a Circle Frame and Photo corners and came up with this:

First up those Tiny Mini Daffodils that were featured HERE on Sunday.

 I just think these are the cutest little daffodils I've ever seen. 

Next up it's a Macro/Close-up of Spooky-boo's claw.  I was trying to get a macro shot of his paw and caught this funny expression on his face as well.  I hope it brightens up your day.
