I'm so behind on my blogging these days, work has been in the way, but I won't carry on about that. T and her friends built a bonfire out back and roast marshmallows the other night (4th of July) just like they did last year this time. Last year they camped out there too, setting up 2 tents. This year was much more laid back and quiet and I worried less about the neighbors complaining . I wanted so bad to get some photos of the group but as I sneaked around the side of the house to take some I was afraid they would see me and think me a snoop so I quickly snapped a photo and headed back inside. It looked like they were having a nice time. / my best friend's birthday is on the 4th of July. makes for a great party. sparklers and a camera are fun.

I am itching to go on a "photo adventure" with Taylor so badly I can hardly stand it. Adventures just aren't the same alone. We had the best times on these treks of ours, looking for the perfect locations for whatever idea she had in her head at the time. Last year the river park is where we found the tall grasses and brush she was looking for. Well today, she would have loved the fields of goldenrod. So I stopped and took a few iphone pics and picked some to bring home - to place on the table and also to scan in for my nature project I have going on.
By the way, I don't know what to call my etsy art work. It's not photography, and scans just sound wrong. Is it mixed media - nature and textures mixed together in photoshop? Any ideas? / mom, sorry for pulling from last year again. this is the same weekend as the one you pulled from yesterday. we had the best campfires out back, remember? i'm so ready for campfire weather.
