52 Photos Project

The prompt for Week 11: red, white, and blue

However you celebrate—beach, barbecue,
fireworks—I hope you have a fun Fourth of July.
Happy 237th birthday to us!

Weekend Reflections

One of my all-time favorite reflections:
the bright summer sun glinting off the beautiful
blue ocean.  Unfortunately, my long (or not) beach
weekend was cut off by the projected arrival of
Hurricane Irene, which is supposed to be passing
right over this beach in the next couple of days.

Today's Flowers

If you visit the folks who live here at #22, you're greeted
by this gorgeous lacecap hydrangea.  If I didn't live
in an apartment, I'd definitely have one of these!

We had some crazy weather around New York
this weekend. I was out on Long Island.
Sadly, some big old trees didn't survive the
storm, but as far as I know no one was hurt.
