Painting the front porch welcome grate. Truthfully, taking a picture of the front porch welcome grate that CH painted while I fiddled around and took a picture of my shadow. Kinda how things go here. CH does the work outside and I take pictures.

  4. Nice grate, and looking at your header, I remember I took lots of pixof a similar one when I visited Raphoe in July. It made me think of you. Must dig them out.

  5. That’s a lovely grate! It’s a good day for outdoor activities here – for me it will be garden clean-up I think. Almost everything looks so TIRED! No doubt I will be myself after a couple of hours out in the gardens….. :D :D HAPPY SUNDAY!

    • SomeBODY will mow today because we finally got enough rain to make grass grow again. It will be an outside day here today too. I can hardly wait! As soon as Sunday Morning and Charles Osgood are over I will get moving. Planning on wine time Under the Oaks around 4:30 :D Enjoy your outdoor Sunday! Storms for us tomorrow.

  6. You and CH seem like such a well matched pair to me. (I wish I had somebody to do all the work, but right now I’m the inhouse worker and photo taker.)

    • Yeah, it seems to work! 39 years in January. Yikes! I do wash my vehicle and scrub up the wine time chairs because, you know, the 4011 trees are not good enough for the birds to sit on and poop from. They like our chairs for that birdie habit. And I handle all the inside work.. :)

    it is a great shadow shot. :)

    • Thanks Tex! When I had to do the shadow for the challenge I couldn’t make it happen. Usually I am trying to keep my shadow out of the way!

    I was wondering what the problem was with what you were doing! I thought that was the way it was supposed to be!

    September 16, 2012 at 12:01 pm

  11. That sounds like a good way to share the work. Great looking welcome grate and cool shadow.

    September 16, 2012 at 12:09 pm

    September 16, 2012 at 8:11 pm

  15. Sounds like a good plan to me and I like the grate very much.

    September 16, 2012 at 8:53 pm

  16. I am getting less and less done . . . and enjoying it more and more! :mrgreen:

    September 16, 2012 at 9:41 pm

  17. I really try to get work done outside, but I’m forever having to grab the camera!

    September 16, 2012 at 11:36 pm

  18. That sounds perfect – get the man to do the work and you take pictures. Could you help me train my hubby for that?

    • Well I negotiated the deal BEFORE we moved out to the Tiny Ten.. :D He knew how it was going to be and he was good with it.

    Interesting photo, Pix. :) I kinda do that a lot.

    September 17, 2012 at 4:13 am

    • I had a hard time making it happen when the challenge was to get our shadow for a shot. We only had sun one day last week I think. Thanks for the visit!

      September 17, 2012 at 6:00 am

  20. Cool shot :)

    September 17, 2012 at 7:14 am

  21. Somebody’s got to do it and somebody’s got to capture it

    September 17, 2012 at 7:17 am

  22. Ha ha! Isn’t that the way it’s supposed to be? He works and you play? That’s how it is here!

    Have a great day, Pix! I’m loving this cooler weather we came back to after vacation…and seeing a little more green, too!! Yay!! Hope you got some rain at your Tiny Ten.

    September 17, 2012 at 12:02 pm

    • Yep I think that is how it is suppose to be but I don’t know if he planned on working quite so hard after retirement. Have not heard any complaints though. It is nippy this morning! We have been missing the rain, just a teeny bit here and there. Nothing yesterday. Hope you are getting some. We are going to water today! Welcome Back!!!

  23. Shadow photos are such good fun. :)

    September 17, 2012 at 4:52 pm

    • EC I have never taken one before. I don’t think! I am always trying to NOT get the shadow in the shot.. :) I used to always get unwanted shadows in barn shots that I didn’t even know were there!

    September 18, 2012 at 11:44 am
