#11 Hair (Theme #136)

I was taking candid shots at our church social tonight and caught this father tossing his daughter in the air at just the right moment.

#10 Stripes (Theme #306)

I found this stripey rock along a trail at Roan Mountain State Park--during a brief period of no rain. My son thinks it looks like Jupiter.

#9 Pair (Theme #223)

A pair of chimneys at the Kingston Steam Plant--taken while my husband was doing 70 mph down the interstate. It's what I call a "drive-by shooting"--the challenge is to compose and focus before passing the object.

#8 On My Table (Theme #207)

On my table tonight is the pizza that my son made for supper.

#7 What's For Dinner? (Theme #357)

This is a recipe book that I put together a couple years ago when I realized I was missing a lot of meals at home while taking care of our neighbor. I put in recipes for our most frequent meals, including ones that I normally keep in my head, so that if I was going to be gone I could call my son and have him fix a meal. His favorite meals are enchiladas and pizza (which he made the dough for today since I was out running errands).

#6 Water (Theme #353)

I took my car through the car wash today to get rid of the salty residue from our trip. This is through the windshield during the rinse cycle.

#5 On The Road (Theme #208)

There was snow on the road between Roan Mountain and Elizabethton as we headed home from our vacation/family visit.

#4 Temperature (Theme #317)

The morning we left Roan Mountain State Park--this was the thermometer on the front porch of the cabin. You can see in the background that it had snowed during the night--finally something besides rain, but we were leaving.

#3 Rain, Rain, Go Away ! (Theme #249)


We went to Roan Mountain State Park to visit family this week--it rained every day--until the day we left when it snowed!
