Just a few thoughts I feel worthy of jotting down!
Photo of the Day – February 25th
Hi, there…..thanks for stopping by! It was a rainy, chilly day today. I was planning to just have a quiet, lazy Saturday and stay in out of the weather and do some things around the house. But……technology had other ideas for me! My wireless router died! I debated going to Walmart or Office Max or somewhere to get a new one, but finally just decided to go to the Time Warner store in Brockport and turn in my old modem and get one of the new all in one (modem/wifi) units. So, I did! While I was out, I filled up my gas tank and popped in to the open house for a new holistic/wellness shop in Medina. I missed the open house, but picked up some info. Might be a cool place! When I got home, I set up my new modem/wifi equipment and left again to go get some dinner……by then, I was just too pooped to cook! Now, I think I can finally curl up on the couch and read a little or catch up with whatever is on my DVR. What a day……lazy Saturday – yeah, right!!! 🙂

Photos of the Day – February 23rd
Hi, there! Welcome and thanks for stopping by my blog! A couple fun photos, today……I went through the car wash to get the response to today’s photo prompt (and get rid of the salt and yuck off my car while I was at it) and had a really fun evening with some friends at a “Sip-Bead-Create” craft event at a local winery! We sipped some wine, enjoyed good friends, and made ourselves a bracelet to top it all off!
So, here are the Photos of the Day for February 23, 2017:

Photos of the Day – February 21st
Hello……we had a gorgeous sunrise this morning and I almost missed it! Megan started pacing around the bedroom about 6:30…..1/2 hour before we usually get up! I tried to just pretend she didn’t wake me and then tried to talk her into laying back down for a little while longer, but she wasn’t having it! So, I got up and let her out the back door and saw THIS!!! WOW!!! I grabbed my camera and snapped off a couple shots. By the time Megan was done and came in for her breakfast (literally 5 minutes later), the colors were already drastically muted and they were gone before the time I would have normally been there to open the door and see it! Thanks, Megan……

Gorgeous February Day at Point Breeze – 02-20-17
The Spring-like weather we’ve been having the past few days…..and more showing up in the forecast……has me itching to spend time outdoors at some of my favorite spots around the area! Still a tad chilly to be at the lake, but the sky, sun, and water were so gorgeous, it was worth it!
Here are some shots from a quick stop at Point Breeze in Kent, NY on Lake Ontario earlier today…..just look at all those bright, vivid, luscious blues:
Aaaahhhh…….wasn’t that just wonderful???
Photos of the Day – February 19-20
Oh, Boy……I realized this morning that I didn’t post yesterday’s photos of the day! One of them did get posted to Instagram, but the other one didn’t…..and, neither got posted here! So…..I’ll just tack yesterday’s on with today’s and move on like it is exactly what I intended to do all along! 😀

Photos of the Day – February 17th
Hi, there! So, today I took the photo prompt and sort of themed up both photos of the day and then some! I started on my goal to start walking more. It was a lovely day – about 44 degrees when these photos were taken – so I decided to make a short loop around a lower section of Mount Albion Cemetery. Start slow and build up, you know! I’m going to give this the good ole college try……whether I keep it up is yet to be seen, but I can promise that if I do continue to walk in nice outdoor locations, such as Mt. Albion or the Canal Tow Path, etc., that I will absolutely have my camera with me and you’ll see what I see! But, given the unpredictability of the weather this time of year and the desire for more flat, controlled surfaces to start my efforts out with, I will likely seek out indoor locations – like the walking loop at the school, maybe???? Whatever I end up doing, I really do need to build up my knee and energy to be able to walk further than I do……I have three adventures planned between now and June that all will require extensive walking! Â So, wish me luck!
So, here are the Photos of the Day……and then some……for February 17, 2017:
# 48 Photo Prompt – Sport:
“Left, Right, Left, Right”
#sport; #walking
# 48 Caught By My Lens:
“A Nice Winter Stroll”
And, more of what I saw along my walk:
I’m not the only one who’d been out walking, today!
And, signs that some critters were enjoying a nice winter stroll through the cemetery, too!
I just love how beautiful and peaceful it is in our lovely cemetery!
I strolled past some ancestors on my grandmother’s side……the Armina L. Miles on the left was a cousin of my great grandfather’s (my grandmother’s father). She died at the age of 29, just 3 months before my grandmother was born, so her parents gave her the middle name of Armina in her honor.

I FEEL HUMAN, AGAIN!!! YAY!!! Finally got enough sleep to shake off that weak/tired feeling…..I feel like I have actual muscles, again, and am no longer a limp dishrag that has to fall onto the couch or bed after the slightest physical exertion! And, I had my regular routine doctor visit, today…..I told him about my episode and he agreed that, from what I described, he would most likely conclude it was food poisoning……not that it really matters what name we put on it, but it does put my mind at ease that it most likely wasn’t a virus that I might end up with a relapse of!
So, here are the Photos of the Day for February 16, 2017:
# 47 Photo Prompt – From Where I Stand:
#fromwhereistand “These Cows Look Cold”
# 47 Caught By My Lens:
“Happy Barn”
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
And, now…..in honor of how HAPPY I am that I feel human, again……how HAPPY those cows probably are to be out in the fresh air (even if they look cold)…….and this very HAPPY barn:
