How could I resist?  These  Amish Teens were on one of the side roads.  They saw us come over the hill and scrambled.  They were putting their cigarettes out and hiding their beer.  Some of the girls had their bonnets untied and thier hair down.  This is a common place for them to hang out and be teens.

Two of My Favorite Things To Photograph

The weather is getting nice but the fire danger is really bad right now.  The fire department has been really busy.  Yesterday some friends house caught fire.  They stopped it and it rekindled last night and they lost it.  We went to see if they needed anything from us.  While we were there my husband got called to a Grass fire. We went when things were all done and they were clearing out.  Because of the cut backs on the DNR (Dept. of Natural Resources) they had to call on other  departments.  This fire burned about four acres.  It was quite windy so it really pushed the fire.  (This is the part of the story that you that know me will get the title of this post) Now here are the  guilty parties.  One of them picked up a bunch of dried grass to see if it would burn.   Well he burned his hand a little and dropped it. Well he found out the hard way that yes it would burn.  When they left they walked down to the farm down the road for lunch and to wait for the elders.  I can't imagine that they will be very happy with them.  It almost burned down the neighbors house too.  Now my husband is out on another brush fire.

Meet Gary. Gary is a staunch Democrat in a town in a county in a region that is overwhelmingly Republican. He and his wife have decided to use their house and garage to let people know their feelings about the current administration.

I am still wondering where spring is...still no colors out here other than brown.  So, here are some more brown pictures for you:)
These photos are from the Quabbin Reservoir. It was created by flooding 4 towns in MA in 1939. The flooding was completed in 1946 providing drinking water for the Boston area.
It is a great place for wildlife pics, but today I felt too lazy to hike in the woods. One thing about this area... it is full of deer ticks. I had my share of them over the weekend. Gross!! So, here are some roadside shots

Maybe it is just me, but I thought I could see something in this tree trunk. Who do you see?
Please feel free to give me your honest suggestions. I cannot improve without your help:)

Sunday found me wandering the byways of West Georgia towards Augusta.  Checking out the small towns (many dying) along the way.  I haven't had time to look through everything, but this is my favorite.

Just a few...

One from Rome - it's nothing major.  The Pantheon is behind me, but this image is what I remember of Rome outside of the ancient monuments.


Several days ago, I shared a few B&W - here's some color from the same morning.

One more post from the old barn. I took a lot of pictures here, and it has taken me a long time to go through them all. I was going through them again one last time to make sure I didn't miss anything when I found these three, and thought they were worth showing...
