Strawberries, flowers, sail boats and lazy days at the lake – this week’s set of photos is all about summer memories new and old. The week started with this pretty shot from my parent’s garden followed by one of our tiny wild strawberry plants caught in the middle of an evening sunbeam. Next is a scan from an old film photo of our sweet dog Maxi who was the perfect combination of black lab and border collie meaning she was smart as a whip, devoted to her pack and always ready to play. This was taken about 15 years ago at a lakefront party when Ryan was baby and Max took a few minutes off from nanny duty to enjoy the sun.
Wednesday I stopped to laugh at this set of fridge magnets, there’s one for every situation, and Thursday night I made a quick trip to the nursery for a few more flowers so we could finish our deck pots. Friday evening John and I took a walk around the marina instead of working out at the gym and Saturday I couldn’t resist one more shot of this beautiful view.
Coming soon I’ve got a great set of new photos almost ready to share here from our latest adventures and if you’d like to follow along in real-time don’t forget I post my daily photos on Instagram, Twitter and Facebook. If a once-a-week blog read is more your speed my weekly recaps will continue here along with caption notes containing editing information for each photo.

Lovely week in photos, Lisa. Really like the last one of the marina. It looks so beautiful there, and it must have been a bit of a romantic stroll for you and John 😉

It was a nice break, Mabel. 🙂 Ryan was out away from home one more night and after the walk we went out for dinner so a great time all around. 🙂

Like Eric, I love the water shots, Lisa. They are all beautiful, though. I love the way you pay attention to things of interest beauty throughout each day, and then document the memory! 🙂

Thanks so much, Debra! These days are flying by so fast there are times I feel like this project is the only thing forcing me to slow down and really recognize individual moments. I guess that’s why I committed to another year of daily photos. 🙂
