Shadow Shot Sunday~ 2~6~'11~ Charles in the shade at Cedar Key

~~~
Shadow Shot Sunday




~~

This is my husband  Charles, in the shadow of a  tree at Cedar Key, Fl. This was in front of a charming little gift shop.


I believe this was 2 years ago on our 48th. anniversary. We had a little get away trip there to celebrate our day!

Cedar Key is a small island  off the coast- no more than a 2 hour drive from our house. We enjoy going there and I hope we can go again before too long, if only for a day trip.

The Island and town were named for the many Cedar trees that grow there. It was determined that the trees are actually 'Juniper' trees and not 'Cedars.' 
( ..  appropriate, since one of my nick names is Juniper! The ironies of life tickle me! )
   :)

In April we will celebrate our 50th anniversary!
(YES!! That's a long time!)
We jokingly add,about this time of year,"If we make it to April 27th."-insinuating- we might get a divorce before then! ;)
(only in jest-don't worry!)
We have made no plans yet as to where we might go or what we might do this time!
Whatever...it will be something simple! lol- That's what we are-and simple pleasures suit us fine!

Last of the BLUE!

The Project Blue is officially over but I can't let it go without one last look at BLUE!

I saw this little house on our recent trip to Cedar Key and wanted to share it here.

Isn't it just such a charming little place?

I think it's perfect!

Project Blue #6 ~ Blue in the sky ~


Project Blue #6
Visit Anna's site for more blue!


~ Feather of a Blue Jay~



Every now and then I find a bird's feather in my yard ! The Blue Jay's feather always gets my attention and I can never just walk by without getting a close-up look at it! This time I happened to have my camera with me and took this picture just as I found it!

THIS is a treasure to me! :) I have a collection of such things of nature that I have collected over the years!

~~~ :) ~ I know!! It doesn't take a lot to thrill me- and I'm glad!! ~~~

~~~

Here's another Blue Bird of the skies! We saw this plane parked at the landing strip at Cedar Key!







...and~ what about this!!
Fantastic!
I have never seen a Blue Angels Air show!
I hope I can some day!

Ode To Big Blue ...( And Project Blue #3 )



This is my Project Blue Post #3!



This is an Artsy tiled wall we saw in Cedar Key!



...And this ties in well with my blue post!

This is not my photo but one an online friend gave me permission to use.

'Char' is Gordon Lightfoot's # 1 fan! :) She goes to a lot of his concerts and just recently saw him in 4 shows in Toronto, Canada!

I am a Lightfoot fan, too, but have only seen him 2 times!

He's
the best for these type ballads!

The man still has his talent intact!






Enjoy!

'Ode To Big Blue'
