The Red Sea....in Travelers Rest

So it seems the rain and wind from the past week has wrecked havoc on the camellia bush. I was surprised to see that the ground below was a virtual red sea of blooms.

Too cool that there were still a few rain drops on some of the blooms, huh?

The Typewriter's Last Word...

It's been raining for the better part of the week, and I haven't been able to get many outside photos. I thought I'd shoot a few pictures of this old typewriter I have.

This Royal typewriter, is approximately 65 years old.

Dandelions Are Dandy!

When I was a kid, I never realized that dandelions were weeds. To me, they were pretty and pretty = flowers.

I know I'm all grown up now, but I still think they are pretty!

The Grass May Be Greener On The Other Side Of The Fence...But You Still Have To Cut It.

Sometimes you have to get down & dirty to get the shot you want and I don't mind doing that.

I'll be the first to admit though, getting up off the ground is sometimes a challenge! ;0)

On a side note...if you're native to Upstate South Carolina you say "I need to cut my grass."

You would never, ever say, "I need to mow my lawn." Saying such a thing will cause you to be punished to the fullest extent of the law.

Rain

Rain

The rain is falling all around,
It falls on field and tree,
It rains on the umbrellas here,
And on the ships at sea.

Mmmmm...Spice Drops...

I love me some spice drops. As I peered down into the bag, I thought it would would make a cool picture.

Ehhh......it's ok.

Slow Go

Last Friday, I was driving along East North Street coming back from Sonic, and I got behind this fella.

No doubt, I'll get scolded by my mama again for taking pictures while driving, but sometimes you just gotta do it! :0)
