It's in the Bag: The door prize goes to....

...drum-roll please......

All of the place cards from yesterday's open house were placed in a camera bag (what else)...and mixed thoroughly.
The tension mounts as all participants move farther forward on their chairs, stools, cushions, beds, floor, etc. The music builds....

The first name is drawn.....

Congratulations, Douglas! Well done!

But wait...there's more! What's this? A second name? Two winners? It must be that my open house was so exciting I got a bit carried away!


Again....moving farther forward, anticipation mounting..... music swelling to a crescendo....

Congratulations, Georgia!

And thank you to everyone who joined in the fun.
What?
You want to know what the give-away is?
Well, of course!


You may choose from one of these prints:

OR, one of these prints:

OR, if you prefer note cards, you may have a box of mixed cards. Some of the images will be different from the ones you see here.

Please e-mail me with your choice, and an address to send it on to. I'm very excited to have my work travel the world....give-aways are actually quite rewarding!

Thank you, everyone, for joining in the fun.....

Wow! I didn't even know I'd been entered for anything. Winning is always sweet, but surprise winning is the sweeter.

Thank you Sandy. Am e-mailing you now.

Best to all

The bee is one of my favorites, the owl is pretty special. The Ba'hai Temple was a great study in architecture. One might think I enjoy my images...for the most part, I do:).

Ah, but I do love Monarch butterflies too... and I tried blowing glass at art college and have total respect for those who can do it... and am writing a book that has lots of bees in it... and owls are a sort of interesting to me where I live... and architecture, don't get me started... and the pictures all so different and so wonderful... and I have to choose just the one... is greedy to want more than one? :-)

Plus I am never good at this kind of choosing... my wife says it is an annoying characteristic...what can you do?

100 Blessings

It's funny how a project takes on a life of its own. I started out making a list of things I'd like to take pictures of - piles of M&M's, rocks on the beach, license plates hanging on an old garage door. Then I decided it would be interesting to find 100 items about "me," celebrating my 100th post with items about me/my life/etc. This way I could tie my compulsion to blog in to my theme. So, I started THAT list. And when I was done I decided all the things I was collecting, ideas as well as items, were actually blessings. Things about my life that make me who I am and allow me to keep striving to be the best I can be at what I do. Each activity isn't necessarily a blessing, it's my ability to do the things I love to do, and be with the people I love to be with. This became an introspective activity, and that's probably where I am in my life right now. If the shoe fits..., so to speak. So, welcome to my 100th Post ! Without everyone I've met thr...

Hidden Gem

Thank you, Georgia , for helping me focus on the hidden gem, the place we love to go and not be found. Not far from home...it IS home. We call it "out back," and once there we are transported to a private place, not visible from houses or road or the casual observer. I couldn't choose just one photo, so I created a collage of this special part of our world. Enjoy.

Restoration in the Works!

  The Ammi Wright House.  Built 1888.         Our town has some pretty remarkable older homes and businesses.  Many have already been restored and are residences and/or businesses.   We went to a meeting the other night which focused on how to go about restoring a beautiful old lumber Barron's home - the Ammi Wright house, just off the main street. It has been empty for a great many years and needs a lot of work to bring it back to life.  But this group of people can do it.   The building itself is already purchased as part of an agreement with the Gratiot Area Historical Society.  Located in a nearby town, they have purchased it and Alma will be part of this system.  We are now forming committees for all the areas which need to be addressed, including historical research, fundraising, publicity, etc.  Lots of work, and lots of interest.  There is a steering committee in place, and we all signed up for an area we feel...
