Day One Hundred Eighteen

Grandpa Neil got a little help from grandson Elijah this afternoon, out in the sunshine in the backyard, planting ferns. Good times. Great memories. Love you guys!!

Day One Hundred Seventeen

Are you next in line for swine flu? I remember that strain of flu from back in the day when Gerald Ford was president. There were people who took the vaccine for it and ended up permanently disabled. Apparently there is no vaccine or cure for it this time around. The talking heads on the news keep telling us to wash our hands and hold your breath when somebody near by coughs or sneezes. Not really. I made that last one up. I guess we can only pray to be spared from this latest dread. And keep washing our hands.

Day One Hundred Sixteen

Project 365, a picture a day for a year, is what this blog is all about. But it's also about scrap booking the pictures I take. Here is the digital scrapbook page I did for week eleven. As you can see, I'm falling behind. I use Photoshop Elements 5.0. The template is KL 365 01. It was a nice freebie from a website I am ashamed to say I did not record in my list of products. If someone recognizes it, maybe they can drop me a note here. The bottom paper is Christina Renee's Grungy Gingham Green and the top paper is Katie Pertiet's A Bit of Grunge No. 02. The font is Especial Kay (hee hee! wonder why I chose that one). Got to get busy and do some more pages!

Day One Hundred Fifteen

Today was a quiet and laid back Saturday. Started organizing all sorts of photos that are loose and scattered in a box. When I tired of that, I grabbed my cell phone and started walking around the house, inside and outside, taking random pictures in the negative setting. Thought I'd share one of those, since I didn't take any "normal" pictures. This is a sun face stepping stone in a rock path on the north side of our house. It's speckled with those little tree seeds that blow all over the place like tiny helicopters in the spring. I think this picture nicely represents this hot, sunny, cloudless, smiley kind of day.

Day One Hundred Fourteen

I guess I'm in a '60's frame of mind this week. Lava lamps and Love posters. Neil says we need some incense and sitar music. Late Beatle George Harrison comes to mind. This poster is a favorite of mine and has hung in my living room for probably years. So Peace out, y'all, and have a groovy weekend.
