Thanks to Sandy


A while back Sandy aka Doris the Great of AGING DISGRACEFULLY had a give away, and I won. My gift arrived today: the promised Dark Chocolate Covered Cranberries! I haven't opened them yet, I think I may save them to share on Christmas Day. Maybe. If I can keep from opening them! Then again, maybe everyone will have to make do with fruitcake!
Sandy also sent things to go with this treat: red napkins with a reindeer motif and a beautiful embroidered kitchen towel. Also included was a cute Christmas card and a seasonal family newsletter which I enjoyed reading.
Thank you Sandy, and Merry Christmas to you and yours!

Red Bricks & Window Reflection


This was taken at my daughter's university in 2005, a couple of months before she graduated. We were waiting for her to come out of this building, and I was taking pictures to pass the time. I was glad I looked up, because this caught my eye!

To see more reflections, visit James at Newtown Area Photo; and to see more red things go visit maryt at Work of the Poet for Ruby Tuesday.

I took this about a month ago from our parking area. You may recognize the tree line from other posts.

Shady Creek Reflection


This was taken about a year ago. It is a little creek which runs near my brother's place in northern California.  I like the blue of the reflected sky and the shadows of the trees.

For more reflections, visit Newtown Area Photo. To see more shadows, head over to Hey Harriet.

Full Moon at Dawn

It was cold this morning, and clear. I had to get going fairly early, but when I went out to start the car, I ran back in for my camera.





 Now you know why.
