Adventure Twelve of 52 Weeks

Adventure Number Twelve took me to Phoenix, Arizona to visit my son and daughter-in-law.  When my plane landed, I grabbed my backpack and made my way to the Metro Light Rail Station. From there, it was a short train ride to ASU. I love wandering around college campuses. It's the perfect setting for people watching. On Saturday, we went to the Renaissance Festival. Once again, a perfect place to capture interesting photos. My short trip to Phoenix, with its abundant sunshine, was the perfect tonic for curing the winter blues.

Fifty-Two Weeks...Adventure 11

Today's adventure was an unexpected surprise... I keyed Claire, my gps, to take me to the Springfield Winery near Bloomfield, Ky. When I arrived at the destination, there wasn't anything there!! Like humans, Claire makes mistakes, too. I didn't want to go on a wild goose chase, so I turned Ol' Blue (my car) around and headed back towards home. This path led me to Taylorsville. Its roots go back over two hundred years. Sadly, there's not much there. I did have a nice lunch at The Tea Cup. The locally owned establishment is a bakery and sandwich shop. The place was filled with friendly locals. My lunch included soup, ice tea, and a danish for less than $6.00.

Fifty-Two Weeks...Adventure 10

This week's adventure took me to Shelbyville. I explored a few antique stores and a couple of coffee shops.  The find of the day was the little doggie in the window. He was sitting on a chair watching me. When I approached, he posed nicely for the picture. Shelbyville was the home Colonel Sanders of KFC fame. I provided a link with a little info about a family restaurant they started years ago.

This old door was leaning against a building. I love the rustic look of it. Judging by the layers of exposed paint, it probably has many stories to tell...

Photo Therapy

It's another gloomy winter day. It's photos like this one that provide the sunshine and warmth that I need... The castle was created by my son-in-law. He set it with the perfect backdrop.

Adventure #8 Disney Cruise

A  Disney Cruise adventure had been on my Bucket List since the birth of my first grandchild. Watching the excitement of two very active boys, as they experienced Disney's magic, was priceless... 

BF

This is my daughter's cat. For some reason, he's decided to be me bf. We have spent countless hours sitting together on the couch. Maybe he just wants my ipad...

I always look forward to Tuesday's Communal Global Challenge. It's fun to see what is happening in everyday places all over the world. This week I'm in Florida visiting the grandkids. This picture was taken at the Manatee Viewing Station in Tampa.
