Day 30 - The Rotunda

Waukesha is home to some of the most gorgeous buildings I have ever seen. Very old, and full of rich history. The Rotunda in the middle of the historic dowtown district is no exception.

Day 23 - Winter Wonderland

Let it snow! Let it snow! But don't let me drive in it! This is something I took early this morning as the snow was falling, and I had an epic fail with shoveling. Some of the area was belted with nearly 2 feet of snow. Thankfully, we stayed under a foot...but not by very much.

Day 22 - MORE Snow!

I just took a walk, and it's that kind of snow that is heavy, wet, and perfect for snowmen. The kind that sticks to every tree branch, and makes it beautiful! It's dark out, so this is the best I can do. We are expecting a foot of snow by tomorrow morning...or so they say LOL!

Day 21 - Ah, snow!

So it did not snow all that much today, but it still made a nice mess on the roads. Expecting more tomorrow... 11 inches!! Yikes!

This sunset nearly blinded me on the way home from the mall. I had to pull over to the side of the road and take this picture because not only was it stunning...but I am a sucker for a good sunset!

Day 11 - Midnight Madness

So I left my house last night at 10:30pm. Arrived at 12:30am in Kenosha WI at the Prime Outlet mall for midnight madness shopping. Stores open at Midnight till about 6am. Well, the first thing that happened was a line to GET OFF the freeway at the exit. We sat in it for over an hour. Today was eventful, didn't get home till 6am, and only had a bit of sleep. However, since this is just a photo - a - day blog...I have chosen the line outside the coach store at 4am this morning. This was AFTER the store had been open for 4 hours. You should have seen it when we first got there. And because I love you all...some additional pics for the heck of it. Oh, and yes...we are eating Chinese food at 3:30am *winks*

Day 9 - Lolita

We had a moment of sunshine today, in which Lolita enjoyed herself. She was bummed that it has since been raining, and is confined to the house. She does not 'do' rain.

Day 8 - Abandoned

Since my camera has decided not to cooperate today, I pulled this photograph from my archives. This is a barn in Iron Mountain, MI. It used to be an old antique store, but is no longer operational. I has a lot of charm, and I love it.

Day 5 & 6 - A Wonderful Weekend

Day 5 - Spent the weekend with some amazing people, and to cap it off, we had this glorious sunset on the beach in St. Joseph, MI!


Day 6 - In the wee hours of the morning, after learning indeed what a "power hour" is, I snuggled down with a good friend of mine to relax while we let our day come to an end.

Day 4 - Waste not, Want not

Louise has a thing for boxes. She believes that we should never throw anything away, and will insist on staking her claim to every box that is slated to be chucked out. Makes me laugh.

Day 3 - Let Sleeping Dogs Lie

This is Ducati, the BloodHound Mix. It's hard to take a picture of her, even when she is sleeping, but I couldn't resist.

Was lucky enough to capture this little fellow ... haven't seen him for a while. Stuck around for only a moment.

Day 1 - Autumn Colors

My leaves are always the last to fall this time of year, so for my first picture, I thought I would post the beautiful colors I am graced with on a daily basis.
