Photos by Maria E!

Looking out
Photography is something many in this family enjoy and do well.  I saw this picture by Maria Elena and knew it had to be posted to the blog.  That woman has an incredible eye.  I like what she's able to capture in her photographs.  Yep, she another talented member of this family.  
I like her subjects

Great piece of old "current" events

Music never dies

This old house


I'm impressed with all of her pics.  There are many more on her facebook page and I'd really like to post more.  I have a feeling there will be another posting of her pictures in the future.  Keep taking great pictures, Maria.  I'm loving them!

I Laid Down My Burden

Raspberry Island on the Mississippi River
Sunday morning I decided to take a walk around my neighborhood.  One of the places I explored was Raspberry Island.  I've been there many times before, but it's usually to walk around, look at the river and move on.  I did things differently this time.  I actually spent time sitting by and enjoying the views of the river and city from the island.  I'm glad I did.  Being near water is always something I liked to do.  River, lakes or oceans; being near water is something I never grow tired of doing.
Live on stage

It was one of those unplanned events that was a good one.  I will be doing it again before the cold weather sets in.  A fun time was had by me.

The Nightlife

I do enjoy the view.



Moonshadow, Moonshadow...

Early morning moon shining brightly
So the past couple of mornings I've been awake to check out the "Blue Moon."  It's important to take a moment or two and check out the world in which we live.  This picture doesn't show very well, but the Moon was a beautiful sight to behold.



Please Take A Look...

He's the MAN

I know this is typically where I would write about family stories or share one of my own.  I had to share this.  I have no idea how many will see this, but if ONE person views this clip it's worth it.  I cannot stress the importance of how we should PAY ATTENTION and not get caught up in the okie doke. 



Check it out.  You may learn something you didn't know was right in front of your eyes.

I wore this in 2008 and I intend to wear it again in 2012.
