I came upon these flower pods (poppies?) during a recent visit to a local nursery.  By the time I finished photographing them, the wind had blown the outside pod covers off.  I’ll bet that they were open to their full glory by the end of the day.

H and I recently visited a favorite little ice cream shop in downtown Marietta.  We were there late enough that their neon signs were on and glowing.  It gave the whole place quite a magical feel.

In looking back at the outfits of my younger years, everything seemed to be a bit snug, high-waisted, and ready for rising waters.

H and I joined an Atlanta Preservation Center walking tour this past weekend that focused on how railroads and commerce transformed Atlanta.   I was surprised at how much street art we encountered during the two-mile walk.  It was a lovely way to spend the morning.

Fashionable Family Friday: All-Purpose Pleats

This must have been a favorite skirt style of mine (elastic waist and pleats) because I keep finding it in the photo archives.   It seems that white socks and dark penny loafers were stock items in my closet as well.

Yesterday I encountered this meeting as I was leaving work… uncomfortable seating, no beverages or snacks, and it looks like the conversation is at an impasse.

Hidden under the remains of winter are fantastic surprises.

Fashionable Family Friday: Piling It On

I certainly look well-coiffed for my fourth-grade school picture, but I question the need for the feathering on the sides and the extra poof at the top.

 

House-Hunting… Bird Style

This tiny nest sits precariously high in a tree that grows in the landscaped island of a busy shopping center nearby.  As we approach the warm-weather real estate season, I’m curious to see if it will pique the interest of any of our feathered friends.
