Darn it! I just got busy.

And then lazy! This isn't from today but it will help get me back on the picture a day theme. This was taken this past fall in Decatur Alabama. I really liked this place because of the old time feel that it had and I would love to visit again.

We love soccer!

Five games in 24 hours and my daughter was in no mood for pictures. Needless to say, I have a ton of pictures from this weekend and because we were so busy I didn't get a chance to post anything on Friday or Saturday. This one is for Friday even though I took it on Saturday.

Seagulls and Museums

I went to the Art Museum today and renewed my inspiration. Sometimes I over think things and that just makes things complicated. Part of the new exhibition has a piece by one of my all time favorite artists, Chuck Close. Of course, the security person wouldn't let me take a picture so you'll just have to go see it yourself.

Bird's eye view with my fish eye lens


It isn't often that I use my fish eye lens so I got it out just for fun today. This is the bird's eye view of my out dated kitchen.

Mardi Gras in Mobile Alabama

Mobile boasts that it is the home of Mardi Gras. You would think that with all that experience they could direct the traffic so that I could find my way out of there. Here is a picture of Mardi Gras colors and the balcony rails. For me this sums Mardi Gras up.

It peels, it cores and it slices!

I gave my wife an apple peeler for Christmas and she uses it every night. Every now and then I actually get a gift that she absolutely loves. Of course I had to put an artistic spin (pun intended) on the whole operation.

Fire

One of the funnest things about having a wooded lot and living in the country! FIRE! Remember, Saturdays are Archive days. This picture was taken this summer.

It's Snowing in Mobile!


For the first time since I've lived here it is snowing! BB and the dogs are loving it. I, of course have seen better.

My workspace

I've been staring at my computer all day. So I took a much needed break and watched Survivor. Editing can be the most tedious job, tomorrow I start all over again.

The Chilean Navy


Today I had a job of great interest to me. It ended up being a very pleasant job (aside from all the stairs.) Anyway, I got to photograph the Chilean Navy accepting a former U.S. Naval Ship. Click the link below to watch the full story. If you have a keen eye you can spot the back of my head and my flash. http://www.fox10tv.com/dpp/news/chilean-navy-ship-commissioned

Pencil

If I were a pencil, my eraser would be worn out. I would pray that God would bite on the metal part to squeeze more eraser out.

Saturday is Archive Day!


I think it would be nice if I had one day a week that I posted an older photo that I like, so Saturday is the day. Of course, feedback is always appreciated and this way I can tell who actually reads my blog. Oh, and when I say older, I don't mean old people. hahahaha!

Mophead!

Dirty Mophead, which reminds me; I got to hang out with my son today! He really needs a haircut.

Rain again, but no flooding yet.

I do live in Mobile Alabama and for those of you who don't know Mobile is the number one city in rainfall with only one competitor, Seattle. We beat Seattle in rain and sunshine most of the time. Which can only mean that our raindrops are bigger! hahaha

What lies beneath a manhole cover?

A city employee came to clean out the debris in the manhole that is causing our flooding problems. When he flipped the lid over this was what I saw. Thankfully the roaches live under the lid and not in my house. When I saw this I thought of Hawaii; I know, I know, but I used to live in Hawaii and I can tell you that the roaches are insane!

The aftermath of previous post!



That girl did get BB's foot! Although it is not as bad as it may look, here is a picture of BB's wound. This is a post for yesterdays pic of the day.

Dogs Rule!

My Monday post!
Our dogs are the best! Our neighbors dogs bark all day and all night but not our dogs! Ann is the momma, Abbie (on the left) is one of Ann's puppies.

Saturday!


High School soccer season begins soon and our girl had a jamboree this weekend. So, of course it is a picture of her playing soccer. BB is the one in white and it looks like the girl in black stepped on her foot.
