"ICY BUSH"

“To every word of love I heard you whisper, the raindrops seem to play a sweet refrain.” ~ The Beatles

Brrrr.....it's February, already and my hubby informed me that today is National Wear Red Day! Red is my favorite color.

Since ice storms are very rare for us, I have a few more shots from the winter storm two weeks ago to share and then I'll move on to another subject:). Photographed the same day as the previous three pics, this is one of four short bushes in our front yard covered in ice. It was also a 60% work day........woo hoo:)!

Oh Happy Friday!

"Bow, stubborn knees!" ~ William Shakespeare

"STREAMS OF ICE"

“Mirrors are ice which do not melt: what melts are those who admire themselves in them.” ~ Paul Morand

SOOC, uncropped

Brrrrr...........

Two weeks ago, on the day this mirror was photographed, we were allowed to leave work early (12:50 PM) due to an ice storm warning in effect. Once I arrived home and parked the vehicle under the garage, I took this picture. The weather was intensely freezing cold with temps in the lower 30s during the day and the lower 20s at night. I was hoping for snow:).

Have a terrific Tuesday!

"BIG TEPEE"

"GOODIES"

"They say that paradise is a state of mind. When all of the ingredients are of the highest quality, it can also be a place." ~ Author Unknown

Regent Seven Seas Cruise (Seven Seas Navigator).........the ultimate cruise experience

Your comments regarding yesterday's POTD (it landed at #1) are so humbly appreciated......seriously! I am still learning so much about photography. SmugMuggers, you rock!!!

By the grace of God, I made it through 2½ years of posting a daily photo.......woo hoo!!! I'd like to take this opportunity to say that I genuinely and humbly appreciate all of my fellow SmugMuggers and non-SmugMuggers who have perused and commented on my photos - whether in the daily community, my other galleries, or both. Additionally, I am so honored to be among many meticulous and discerning photographers who really know the art of photography. As a result, I have been inspired by many of you. Thank you all for welcoming me into this community, appreciating my work, and for what you demonstrate in the name of photography. I await with great anticipation your photos in 2013.

Tomorrow is New Year's Day (2013)!

Have a marvelous Monday.

"2013" Theme

"We will open the book.  Its pages are blank.  We are going to put words on them ourselves.  The book is called Opportunity and its first chapter is New Year's Day.  ~ Edith Lovejoy Pierce

For Judy (aka fotoeffects)..........

Last month, Judy (aka fotoeffects) suggested red, chartreuse, and hot pink accents for our December Christmas table setting. On the other hand, Karen (aka Kjakes1) suggested red and gold. Although I finally decided upon purple, lime green, silver, and black - colors suggested by fellow SmugMugger Nelli and one of my colleagues, I still created a table setting in Karen's suggested color scheme and felt up to the challenge of creating one in Judy's suggested color scheme, too.  I tried to create a different arrangement of the ornaments for each plate. 

Additional photos of this table setting can be viewed here: http://www.smugmug.com/gallery/11014855_M5W6FW#!i=2291582302&k=6nXGtCg

Happy New Year to all!

"PRAY, PREY, PRAY"

"And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away." ~ Revelation 21:4, The Bible (KJV).

Unfortunately, a week ago today, twenty children and six teachers died after a man packing heavy firearms embarked on a ghastly killing spree at Sandy Hook Elementary School. We offer our deepest sympathies to the families. "Prey" (in the caption) is not a typo; get it?

"Following the devastating mass shooting in Newtown, Conn., support for stricter gun control laws is now the highest it's been in a decade and has surged 18 points since the spring of this year," according to a new CBS News poll. Also, "President Obama has said that in the coming weeks, he will use whatever power is at his disposal in efforts to prevent anymore such tragedies." ~  Reprinted text from here: http://www.cbsnews.com/8301-250_162-57559669/poll-support-for-stricter-gun-control-at-10-year-high/

Do you know what today is? It's the first day of winter.  

4 days until Christmas.......

TGIF and vacation starts........woo hoo!

"BALLOON CHRISTMAS TREE"

"Blessed are those that can give without remembering and receive without forgetting." ~ Unknown Author

Thanks a million for your overwhelmingly kind comments on my post of the day yesterday. SmugMuggers rock!!

The Gaylord Texan Resort is decked out in all of its holiday splendor and glory.  How many ways can you make a Christmas tree? Well, this creatively interesting and unique tree is made with balloons! Can you believe it? I love it! 

Also, with one-and-a-half million twinkling lights, 12,000 ornaments, an amazing 52-foot-tall rotating Christmas tree, a life-sized gingerbread house (yes, it's made of real gingerbread!) and exclusive holiday events and attractions, Gaylord Texan offers some of the most distinctive holiday entertainment you can imagine. Additionally, this year, you don't want to miss ICE! featuring DreamWorks' Merry Madagascar. The animated holiday TV special will be brought to life in an interactive world of colorful ice sculptures and 20-feet tall ice slides carved entirely from TWO MILLION pounds of ice. Relive the story of how Alex the Lion and his friends saved Christmas after Santa and his reindeer crash onto the island of Madagascar. ICE! Merry Madagascar is hand carved by 40 artisans from Harbin, China who arrived in early fall. You've got to see it to believe it!

Another pic of the tree is here: http://www.smugmug.com/gallery/27019281_bb6VvX#!i=2276211941&k=zfL2DzC&lb=1&s=A

6 days until Christmas...........

Have a wonderful Wednesday!
