Purple Photo Passion Ladder

This is my very purple ladder...isn't it pretty??? The potted rose is just posing on the ladder for the picture, waiting to find it's permanent place in the garden. I have a purple room. It is a combination craft room - library - office. It has high shelves so I need a (purple) ladder to reach my "stuff". I am in the process of doing a little re-organizing in my room, when I finish I will post a pic of my purple ladder in my purple room!!

Skywatch Lake Huron Sunrise #2

These shots are exactly as they came out of the camera. The first was taken about a minute sooner and zoomed in on the mass of clouds.
I was fortunate to have lived on the lake for several years. I kept my camera on the coffee table and captured many spectacular sunrises.

That is why I decided to number them in the title .... there will be more.

Window Views - 6-24

The light this morning caused a bit of a glare on my window! The plants in the pot really do not show up as much as they should - but any week now (LOL) you will be seeing some very pretty flowers ....I hope! Have a great week and enjoy those views!!

Color Carnival Cake

My granddaughter recently celebrated her 10th birthday and this was her very cool (and colorful) birthday cake. I thought it would be perfect for my first visit to Color Carnival!

More heavy rains this week, which has again left lots of puddles! Now if only we could have a week of nice warm days and nights maybe things would speed up a bit. We transplanted an Annabelle Hydrangea near the fence, it was not happy in it's previous location and is rather sickly looking at the moment. I will give it a little TLC and maybe it will produce some of those magnificent white flowers it is famous for!

Ruby Tuesday Schoolhouse

This very vibrant red schoolhouse is located in Michigan's Leelanau Peninsula.

Shadow Shot Swans

My swans - giving me some great shadow shots.

Mimi on Skywatch Duty

We have some very high windows in our family room and our kitty Mimi has discovered all it takes is a few tricky little leaps for her to be at a great place to observe the outside world. In these shots she was enjoying a particularly lovely sunset.

6 weeks and still not much change. The flowers in the planter have already been knocked down once by frost and we have frost warnings again tonight!! What month is this???????????
