Ok, I know I've gone flower crazy, partly because it is the season and I love flowers, and partly because I'm so busy, I need to take a pic a day for 365 and, well, flowers are always there.
So I decided at least I should do something different, and since color is such an important part of a flower, I decided to take it away.

This image evokes childhood memories of fresh, sun-warmed laundry drying in a summer breeze. The vintage handkerchiefs were my mother's, found neatly folded in a drawer after she passed away. The blue sky, gentle breeze and sunlight? Provided by Mother Nature. This picture has a slight dreamy feeling to help convey the vintage feel.

Day 188-365 "Balloon Flower"
The bad thing about catching up on posting on a 365 is that you finally look at the pics you took that day and are disappointed. And now that day is over and you can't take anything new, so you have to put up pictures you don't like. At all. Unfortunately, it looks like I have several days of them :-(.

Day 187-365 "VIntage Daisy"
Trying to catch up. It's been a busy few weeks.
My daisies are bursting into bloom. guess what I will be taking pictures of in the next week ;-). Tried to give this one a vintagy (is that a word?) look.
Day 186-365 "Starbucks Goodies"
Trying to catch up. It's been a busy few weeks. Unfortunately, in my rush to dump my 365s onto flickr, they ended up totally out of order!
Driving home and a stop at Starbucks, coffee only, no sweets :-(.
Day 185-365 "Nature's Fireworks"
Trying to catch up. It's been a busy few weeks. Unfortunately, in my rush to dump my 365s onto flickr, they ended up totally out of order!
Waiting for Fourth of July fireworks, the sky put on it's own spectacular. I rarely take sunset shots, so this was nothing more than a snapshot.
Day 184-365 "Ben Watches Over the Precedings"
Trying to catch up. It's been a busy few weeks. Unfortunately, in my rush to dump my 365s onto flickr, they ended up totally out of order!
Went to the Franklin Institute in Philadelphia. It was hard to get a better picture than this because the area was closed off while they set up for a wedding reception. But we did get to enjoy the rest of the science center, including a Star Trek exhibit. Wonder what Ben would have thought about that ;-)!
Day 183-365 "Christopher's Dishes"
Trying to catch up. It's been a busy few weeks. Unfortunately, in my rush to dump my 365s onto flickr, they ended up totally out of order!
These were made for my oldest son when he was born, more years ago than I'd like to think!
Day 182-365 "Patriotic Painted Toes"
Trying to catch up. It's been a busy few weeks. Unfortunately, in my rush to dump my 365s onto flickr, they ended up totally out of order!
You can only get away with this look under the age of 10.
