  • BEWARE SPOILER BELOW******************If you haven’t seen Pirates of the Caribbean 3 don’t read this part…

    GEMS FROM CHARLIE

    Ben and I took Charlie and Is to see PC3 there is a part where they show the dead kraken laying on the beach. Charlie leaned over to me and whispered… “Aw Mom I bet that would have been a lot of good sushi…” I gave him a look he said “What? I like sushi!”

    I know I’m bringin’ em up right when they like their sushi.

    SPOILER ENDS HERE******************************************************************

     

    OK I’m off to the post office today to send out three more MAILART.

    Only four more to go and then I should have everyone finished.

    Here are some more photos I’ve been playing with. I know, I’m a picture nut lately.

    You all know about me and barns.

    I also like Phlox.

    Tug Boat w/blue sky

    On Memorial Day night I went back to the field of flags. 

    I was the only one there and it was scary and sad.

    The wind was flat and just as I was ready to leave it came up a little as if to wave goodbye.

    It’s hard to get a picture you like when there are casino lights in the back ground.

    But I do like this one.

    Which do you guys like? If any, and why?

  • I love that first pic.  Very cool.

    LOL Hadn’t thought of turning that big dead thing into sushi.  That’s funny.

  • I love the first,second ,third ,fourth and fifth the best!!!
    The first the best of the best!
    You know that i love barns too!

  • That’s cute what your son said!!  I love all of them….gives you a sense of PEACE!!!

  • I like the picture of the barn, but the purple weeds out front look bad – they need mowing

  • I like the tug boat picture best.  I like the black & white tones of the boat and water and then the blue on the horizon is just right.  I hope you continue to post your pictures – I love seeing them.  Peace 

  • loved the barn pic

    I’ll pass on the sushi

  • Of the field of flags I like the first one the best, the depth of field makes it seem as if the back flag is beckoning me to come closer.

  • I like the tug boat too, but what is really great is yesterdays picture of the sandy toes!!! Got hit on eh, good for you!  Have a great weekend – take lots more pictures!!!!

  • I love barns to…awsome pictures :) I havn’t seen the new Pirates movie but I want to so bad :)   ryc: that little baby needs all the prayers she can get, thank you :)

  • i’ve never had sushi before… thou my cuz tells me I’d like it… as for the pictures… I like the first one, how the flower is the only thing really in focus… and the rest are kinda dreamy like… but the colour really POPS! although that last one is really nice… meaningful…

    do you use a digital camera? what kind? been thinking about getting a new one… one photo software do you use as well???

    anyway… ttfn…

  • I have never had sushi- but that could be because I know what it is.

  • Is it still considered to be sushi when you can cut slabs bigger than a Texas steak at a family Bar-B-Q? I am not sure of this… but then, I am not a sushi kind of a guy. Is kraken any good with ketchup? Worcestershire sauce? Krakatoa sized barbecue, anyone?

  • RYC- The photos were from NW Montana, not Wyoming. Sorry for the confusion… I was both places that trip. Incidentally, they meet on their western common border side at none other than Yellowstone National Park… which is really pretty scenic in its own right. Thanks for the comment.

  • Hah, how did I confuse you?

    I know I must confuse people sometimes though, because a lot of the things I do contradict what I’d do anyway…

    I’ve got pictures from my road trip. I’ll post them soon.

  • I think I like the first one best… the lighting is just perfect and the contrast between the flowers and the barn is really neat. You take GREAT pictures, honey! Keep ‘em coming.

    RYC: Thanks for the sweet words of sympathy and wishes for a safe journey. We’re here, safe & sound, and I survived going to Super Wal-Mart in rural Kentucky on the first of the month (also a Friday). My, what an interesting cross-section of humanity! We only have to be here for two and a half more days… just two and a half more days…

  • LOL!!  I can’t wait to see the movie.

    Wow– your first picture is so cool– with is unfocused on everything BUT the flowers. Awesome!!

  • Hey sushi is good!  :)

  • I like them all. Especially the last one. Don’t know why. The flags are “posed” just right I guess.

  • Hi Angie, I just love the pictures. Thanks for visiting my xanga site. I am kind of new at it and blogging. I am an old guy of 73, married 51 years, and retired 11. I am trying to be transparent and vulnerable in my xanga site. We already have a lot of perfect Christians in xanga–I am one of the imperfect ones that allows my growing xanga family to share my struggles. Thanks for inviting me back. I really appreciate your offer and kindness.

  • 2 and 3, for composition and focus.  The barns in my country were painted ‘CPR’ which is short for Canadian Pacific Red.

    You have a good eye for photography.

  • Sorry, I missed the Memorial day part.  I just got it now.

  • Which I like Ang ? I like the quiet boat , the phlow in front of the glowing sherd and also of course the last .
    Love
    Michel

  • I was very disappointed with Pirates 3. I love your photos. The top flag picture is amazing.

  • The boat of course.
    I think maybe peagreen has had to go on some flower hikes too.

  • Cool Pics,

    RYC Car was ready, but got rained out again, going to race a go-cart on dirt tonight. Never done that before so will be a lot of fun.

    See Ya

  • I love old farms

  • There is a round red barn in Arcadia Oklahoma on old Route 66 that you would like to visit

  • I thought Pirates 3 was better than Pirates 2, but not as good as Pirates 1.

  • Love, love, LOVE those photos! You’re a genius!
