Picture-A-Week 2023 - Week 48

[pierces]

Pictures taken between Monday, November 27 and Sunday, December 3.

 

December? Already?

 

Post 'em if you got 'em.

 

Rules: See above

That's it. This isn't a contest.

All photos taken this week are welcome (not just cruising).

Prizes will not be awarded. Discovering the joy of photography is the prize.

The idea is to get folks out using their cameras for more than vacations and toddler birthdays.

Post one. Post many. Up to you.

Have fun with your camera and share your fun with others!

This time it's here to stay, last time I said that it was all gone by the next day. Ski hills open this Sat.

More than hummingbirds in the garden ... this little guy wanted some peanuts.

@Tahitianbigkahuna I am jealous of your hummingbirds. All of ours moved south several months ago. We miss them over the winters.

Scheduling conflicts forced our Christmas party to be held last Saturday. The decision to throw the party was an actual decision this year. It may surprise some of you, but there's quite a bit of work involved in planning and executing a gathering for 30+ people. We had more people we wanted to invite, but our backyard entertainment area will only hold about 35 or so comfortably. The menu that featured Pasta a Fagioli soup and my Mother’s Barbeque beef sandwiches. There were salads, appetizers and desserts aplenty. The heaters worked out perfectly and kept the crowd comfortable despite temps in the mid to low 50°s. All-in-all, it was a smashing success and even the seemingly endless cleanup couldn’t dim our warm, fuzzy feeling of a job well done.

 

We Did It Again
