June 28 - On the shelf

The CDs, which never get played now that all the music is on the iPod,
still need to be stored, and of course the Dylan disks are front-and-center.

June 27 - Bathroom

I wouldn't have blamed you for not clicking through when you saw the title.
So thanks for clicking through! Peeking through the door of the unisex restroom at work.

June 25 - Something cute (also post #1111)

Permit me one more photo of a teeny Weck jar. It was either this or a
baby zucchini. 'Cause I'm just not that into cute. Heh.

June 24 - On my mind

My little teeny (3/4 cup) Weck jars came this week. Just in time for pesto!
An abundance of basil has been on my mind for several days.

June 23 - Movement

Hoping President Obama is re-elected, Congress returns to Democratic control,
and the Senate manages to swell to a super-majority. Onward. FORWARD!

June 20 - Fave photo you've ever taken

A somewhat odd choice, you might think, to be the favorite photo I've ever taken.
If I'd chosen a grandchild shot, the other grandchildren would have been left out.
And I've taken so many pictures of my little Hershey girl it's hard to choose a favorite.

The entire experience taking this shot made me feel like a "real" photographer.
It was the first time I'd gone to the tunnel (this is Big Bend Tunnel in Talcott, WV,
home of the John Henry legend). I took dozens of shots, each one slightly different.
I love the pinhole of light at the other end of the tunnel. Also, it was a spur of the moment
idea and it fulfilled one of Instagram's Weekend Hashtag projects. It wasn't chosen as a
featured shot, but I think it was worthy.

The only other photo I considered for today's prompt was of a slice of apple pie.
Mmmmmmm, pie. =)

June 19 - Imperfect

Well, I missed posting yesterday, which is imperfect in and of itself. But I was in a car, on the road for most of the entire day, which I'll write more about tomorrow. The last few hours of the drive home I was in excruciating pain because of what's pictured below.

My mouth. Totally imperfect. And painful. And infected.
The dentist worked me in today and gave me the unfortunate
(but expected) news that I will, before fall, have upper dentures.
Getting old really sucks.

June 17 - In your bag

Took a little liberty with this photo prompt and used the American expression
"in the bag," which means finished, done, complete – I finished mulching the herb bed!

June 16 - Out + about

"Out and about" implies hustle and bustle.
Unless you live in the Middle of Nowhere.

June 14 - TIme

Time passes slowly up here in the mountains.

So very nice to relax and enjoy this visit with my brother. I feel no pressure to do or be or accomplish anything.

June 13 - Art

Landscaping is an art, right?

I had hoped to take a photo of a very cool bumper sticker today, but the truck that sports it didn't show up at the garden center. Here's what it would have looked like (and I think I've posted a picture of it before, maybe on Facebook, a long time ago).

June 11 - Door

Spontaneously shattered glass in one of the stationary panes
flanking a sliding glass patio door. Photo was taken from the outside;
there is a sheer curtain panel on the inside.

June 10 - Best part of your weekend

For the past several weeks the mowing chore has fallen on a Saturday or a
Sunday. So, lately, the best part of my weekend has been when I'm done mowing!

June 9 - Your view today

This was my view from the hotel lobby this morning before we left for the
state Democratic convention at the Charleston Civic Center.
I was, um, looking LEFT. =)

Day Last
