    Photo-A-Day F is for fun. F for forest. F is for a very bad cuss word. F could be so many things but I chose F for FUNGUS. Okay, don’t get all excited. I’m not going to show you a toenail or some gross skin condition. I am not that mean. Well, I am but, not today I’m not.  You are welcome. Bear and I went on our daily nature walk. I am bound and determined to find discarded antlers. We have so many bucks all year and I just KNOW someone dropped at least ONE antler on the property. Right?!?! Yes, I know…. shiny….sidetracked…… back to my F during this hike Bear and I found these things attached to the base of a couple of trees: Truthfully, I first thought it was a pipe, old lantern top or piece of trash. I asked The Husband and he said it’s a Fungus. I had to look this up cause really? “whaddya mean it’s a fungus??” This thing is SOLID. I mean solid as stone.

    Photo-A-Day D

    Photo-A-Day D I bet you thought I would post a picture of Bear the DOG but H-E-L-L-O!! We all know she is a fur baby and not JUST a dog!!! D for dark; as in when it gets dark here it gets DARK!! Then I could just post a big square black picture and you would never know the difference. So, I chose D for dishwasher. Not not just any ole’ dishwasher. Ohhhh no! Not me!! A 1962 dishwasher. On the phone with Alice working on a school assignment she had to interview Mom and Grandma and ask questions about when they were in the second grade. I told you already; that made my brain hurt! One of the questions was “What was the most modern appliance you had” Oh my gosh, memory of the very first dishwasher came flooding back to me! We were the hoity toity house with our dishwasher. No one else we knew had one! Aunts, uncles, cousins and neighbors were so jealous!! Everyone had to come see the dishwasher! *you had to really clean the dishes before you put them in this beast.

    Ashes Photo-A-Day A

    This month I am going to use the alphabet for my Photo-A-Day prompts.  Today I give you Photo-A-Day A Hello A!! Now I know y’all are expecting a complete series of pictures of Alice. Well, noooooooo instead I give you A for ASHES I swear the previous owners tries to burn this house down.  There are so many clumps of ashes and burn areas in the middle of trees, close to house, circling all around the house.  So finding Ash was very easy. Pallllease y’all know I didn’t really make A all about ashes.  I should only be for Alice!! This A is really special too!! Alice just got an ACADEMIC AWARD!!  SO OF COURSE A is for Alice. How Adorable is this Amazing KID!!! BTW I do still think the previous owners tried to burn down the house.
