I met up with my photography friends for another outing. After having a gorgeous blue sky filled with perfectly puffy clouds all day long…the gray skies took over. So much for our plan to get some sunset photos. I found these cute flowers, and I think they made up for the sunshine that had disappeared.

Even in black and white, these flowers are cheery!

Which one is your favorite?

Who knew an old typewriter could be so fun? I’ve been searching for one for some time, with the original idea to make jewelry from the keys (seen made by another jewelry artist a few years ago). A few weeks ago, Reggie and I took off on a Friday and visited the yard sales along US 40. After just a few stops on our journey, we happened to visit a smaller yard sale, when I spotted this…

After handing over $3, it was mine! What a deal!

This machine dates back to 1942, and it still works! It just needs a new ribbon. Since I don’t really make jewelry anymore, I’m keeping it as a photo prop. So if you know of any writers who would like some portraits…;)

Here’s one result of some time spent introducing this ol’ typewriter to my camera.

Have a wonderful day!

Wishing a very Happy Father’s Day to my dad, and to all the dads reading this.
Dad, thanks for all that you do, and thanks for the old camera, it’s really cool!
Love you!!!
Have a great day, you deserve it!

I’m blogging from a car show, so my apologies if this doesn’t turn out!

Here is a photo of my dad and I dancing at our wedding to Stevie Wonder’s “You Are the Sunshine of My Life.”
