February 27 ... Outdoors



Ravae was fairy unimpressed with my
attempt at a group grandchildren photo today :(

Today's prompt could hardly have worked out better! :)
I took Mom out for a drive this afternoon through our old
stomping grounds, and came across Uncle John flooding the
community center rink.  He was very cooperative with me
when I got out of the vehicle with my camera ... even
gave me some instructions as to angles and background :)
Also, had to tease me a little with the water hose :)

his jumping abilities :)  
And Kaitlyn demonstrated
her jumping ability for me too :)

Conrad was finding some
fighter jets quite interesting

Hmmm ... something we found at the flea market.
What a good idea! :)
A use for all my chairs!

We found a little car show
to stop in at

Valentine's night in Phoenix ...
we took our loungers out into the backyard
and did some stargazing :)

Red Rock Canyon Drive









One of my bucket list photo shoots
is a bunch of hot air balloons at sunset ...
this was as close as I got this time ...
Snapped while driving down the freeway.

We were a little taken aback
by this guy riding his motorcycle
down the street and wearing a gun!

Just love the view while driving
around the area ... hills and mountains everywhere!

Quick night in GF before we head to the airport.

February 6 ... Toys

It seems with every visit by grandkids,
more toys make their way out of storage
and back upstairs :)

This was quite funny. I managed to snap a photo of Ben while playing at the window,
but when he turned and heard me take the picture, his reaction was "No!! Cheese!!"
Apparently he wants to be prepared to pose before I take pictures now :)

February 4

This is called ... 'grasping for something to shoot when it's cold outside
and I waited too long' :( ...
or 'Leftover Christmas Chocolate'
Today's prompt was something to do with shapes found in nature,
and I was just not in the mood to wander around outside in this weather.

February 3 ... Where I Stand

Month end ... Statement time for me. The job gets done
wherever I feel like being at the time.  Generally close to
heat source and music :)

February 2 ... Heart / blurred backgrounds / Soften / Indistinct

This was my attempt at making hearts 
with my hands ... apparently 2 seconds 
is not enough time :)
