Random

I couldn't resist a walk around the neighborhood this afternoon and thought I'd share a few things I saw. I was delighted to find a few mushroom friends in my very own back yard. Perhaps if a can safely identify them, and identify them as safe, I'll have them for breakfast tomorrow!

Whetstone Park

When you jog the same path over and over, you begin to see things, and become aware of how Mother Nature changes her attire. Tonight I had to go back to not jog, but walk with a camera without my 5K training partner (sorry, Stephanie) to capture some of the things that have captured my attention. It turns out that Whetstone Park is a vertiable gold mine of mushrooms, among other things. I saw mushrooms, deer, reading friends, and other curiosities.

Happy weekend, folks! Go take pictures and show them to me!

German Village

I visited my old stomping grounds, German Village, tonight. It's strange, walking around a neighborhood where you once lived and seeing how things have changed, and how they haven't changed. And how I once sat on those steps deciding on what to do with my day. The smells eminating from Happy Dragon still tell me they make the best Phad Thai in town.

You know I don't usually go in for 'pretty', but the blossoms bursting out all over my neighborhood were calling to me today.  If you want to see more of what I saw, hop on over here.

Have a lovely weekend, folks!

Spring Colours Week

About my blogging neglect, have I mentioned Pinterest and how much of your time that can gobble? Oh, yes. You're looking for something, say, a plum pie recipe. Forget Google, you'll find it on Pinterest with a nice picture and a few reviews of it to boot. It starts innocently enough. You start with a single board, pin a few things randomly ... and then you notice other pinners are putting things in such tidy little categories and they surely have their lives in equal order, right? You know some pinners have boards called 'Braids'? And others have boards named after every single room in the house? It can get downright exhausting. In any case, here's a little blue for you. I don't have a board on Pinterest called 'Blue'. Yet.

Spring Colours Week



I know, I know, I've been neglectful.  I seem to have overcommitted myself, what with learning mushrooms, and deciding to run a 5K this year ... that takes up a chunk of time, going to the gym nearly every day to get up to speed. Oh, and there's the shoe project I want to start on. Yes, I want to get people wearing their favorite shoes, the ones they think say something about who they are, the ones that can really reveal one's character. And then I want to make a book about it, or try to exhibit the results somehow. I've got quite a little Spring mapped out for myself, but for now I think I might just try to give you one picture a day celebrating a single color. Have some yellow, will you?

Storms



One of my favorite things about Central Ohio is that we get big, crazy storms. It's actually kind of fun, dodging hail to capture a few shots. These are a few favorites.
