Welcome!

January 1, 2011 is the first day of a new year, and the second year I will try to attempt to post a photo every day for the next 365 days. It didn't work out so well last year. But as a New Years resolution, I have decided to try the 365 Day Photography challenge again.

218/365 At The Lake

Thom and I went to Alward Lake with friends to do some fishing. This is a small lake about 10 miles north of Lansing. It's small but it's pretty. We didn't catch anything we could keep but it was fun to get away.

217/365 Mini Cooper



I ran across this little car while shopping today. I had to take a picture of it because it's yellow. They are just too small for my taste. I would not feel comfortable in one. I don't think they even have a back seat. I think they look like an accident waiting to happen. I don't care for them.

I have a feeling my next car, whatever it turns out to be, will be yellow. I have taken a lot of pictures of yellow cars this past couple weeks.

216/365 Hollyhocks and The Bee...

I think it's very cool to watch the bees do their thing around and in the Hollyhocks. I am very thankful that the bees are doing their job, we have every color you can think of in our back yard because of the bees.

215/365 Good to The Last Drop...

Beebe is very good at cleaning out the Biggby cups every time. She's not afraid to get right down in there to the bottom of the cup. She's the only one who will put her head down to the bottom. The funny part is, when she's done she has all the sticky stuff on the side of her head that the others then will help to clean off for her. It was not coffee, thank goodness, or she would get hype.

214/365 Just a Relaxing Evening

We stopped at the bookstore this evening to pick up a magazine, and I seen this lady. She looked like she didn't have a care in the world. I had to take her picture. She looked so peaceful. I think it looks really cool in black and white. I was in that mood.

When did life become so busy that I stopped taking time to look through some good books? I loved spending hours in bookstores and libraries when I was growing up. I wasn't a good reader and I couldn't spell, so getting lost in the shelves was my idea of fun.

I realize as I've gotten older, I need to spend some quiet time surrounded by my friends again.

213/365 Beautiful Butterfly

I love my Nikon Coolpix L100. I have never been able to get this close to anything in nature.

I haven't seen a lot of butterflies lately. He/she was just flying from tree to tree. After it stopped, it would open it's wings. I am told that is it's way of cooling down. I wish I was faster, I could have gotten a better picture.

212/365 Yellow VW

We were at the bookstore this afternoon and I seen this VW. I have always loved VWs and yellow is my favorite color for these cars. I do like the older bugs better, but this one will do just fine.
