Saving my hollyhocks was quite the ordeal for my fence building team, but I’m proud to report that my fence was built with minimal damage to my hollyhocks and they should do just as nicely again next year.
My image organization is a mess right now, as I am bouncing around amongst 3 computers, so I’m not sure what I will publish next week. It will either be lilies or coneflowers.
I’m not sure who anybody is in these Halloween costumes, but I don’t remember Halloween costumes being so swanky back in the day.
I believe the car pictures are of an old car that sat in Lowell’s grandpa’s yard.
For the first time in several years, I was back to where I am supposed to be on the Fourth of July: eating Derrick’s cooking.
Here are some pictures from that day.
Next week’s random pictures feature a few pictures from the Iowa Band Festival, but in reality, they are mostly Evie pictures, again. I doubt there are any complaints about that!
Today is the birthday of my eldest sister, so happy birthday to her!
The following images came from:
Backup/Old My Pictures/Real to Life/Black & White
Real to Life was 1 of the many photo “business” names I have considered over the years.
I’m guessing at some point I considered these to be some of my best or most interesting black & white pictures.
1 of the first black & white pictures I ever took.
This picture was taken with APS. Remember APS? I didn’t think so.
This dead tree was near the Grand Canyon. I always liked the idea of photographing dead trees. Don’t know I’ve ever taken a good picture of a dead tree.

Next week’s Personal Photo Project will involve Hollyhocks.
Unfortunately, I can’t remember the name of this flower. Here are more pictures of the mystery flower.
More pictures from the Cry Gratitude Series tomorrow.
If you look closely, I’m pretty sure Carla is on that Girl Scout float.
I took a few pictures of Dawn’s grandchild Kayelee a few weeks back. Here are a few of them:
Despite the fact that I’ve never had a photo shoot so beset by so many technical problems, I think we did some good work.
