One Word Sunday: Rush

Kids always seem to be in a hurry to get wherever they’re going. Maybe it is just the thrill of the run, who can get their first, or their ever present boundless energy. RUSH

The Ragtag Daily Prompt for Sunday is: LOSS Take the word, think about it, let it hold you for awhile. Then take those thoughts and feelings and create a post.  Last week as I stood […]

CFFC: Books and Paper

A lovely bookstore to browse through in New Paltz, New York. So inviting. Old favorites. Very old paper. A check written by my great grandfather in 1923, made out to Commissioner of Internal Revenue.

A Photo a Week Challenge: Injuries

In September of 2012, due to my inattention, I tripped over a person’s foot in a store, went airborne and landed directly on my elbow. My olecranon, the bony point of the elbow was shattered to bits. Even these many years later it is hard for me to think about. One moment I was fine, […]

CBWC: Half of Anything

When I was a teacher in first grade we taught about symmetry, beginning with how we are “symmetrical” in order for the kids to understand the concept. That is what came to mind when I saw Cee’s prompt, which led to my using selfies I had taken last year in school – but cutting myself […]

Sunday Stills: Going #Back … ?

“Going Back…” implies going back to something, whether a place you’ve visited before, going back “in time” as you view your photo archives.. however you want to interpret it. I couldn’t decide what to do with “going back”- my first thought was my BFF- we go WAY back, becoming friends at age 12, and here […]

Lens-Artists Challenge: Keep Walking

This summer my husband and I covered a lot of ground. We took one night overnights discovering many new parks and small towns in New Jersey . We traveled to New Hope Pa. We walked and walked and walked. Trails along rivers, in the woods, boardwalks along the ocean. We walked through the streets of […]

CBWC: Bridges

Living in New Jersey I am surrounded by many bodies of water within New Jersey and in New York. We always seem to be crossing bridges no matter where we go. This is a view of the Williamsburg Bridge in the foreground, and The Brooklyn Bridge behind it. Both lead into different sections of Brooklyn, […]
