Spring break: the bitch is back!

March 17, 2012January 6, 2015 ~ Tara R. ~ 22 Comments

I got called a Bitch this weekend... and I could not be more satisfied. The area where I live is a big tourist destination. Being that Spring Break has begun, tourist have been flocking to the beaches like seagulls looking for cold french fries. I know that our area depends on tourist dollars. That was … Continue reading Spring break: the bitch is back!

Sneaking away: flu edition

March 10, 2012January 6, 2015 ~ Tara R. ~ 19 Comments

The Boy had the flu all this week so it kept me close to home being all mommy-ish with my sick 18yo baby.  I can count on two things when he's sick: 1) while awake, he carries on the worthy tradition of being totally incapacitated by a Man Cold and 2) when he does sleep, he's … Continue reading Sneaking away: flu edition

A turn in the season

March 4, 2012January 6, 2015 ~ Tara R. ~ 21 Comments

Still a little wintry and grey around these parts, a nasty storm kept me inside on my normal Saturday photo hike day. Fortunately there was enough of a break in the cold and gloom earlier in the week for a short walk. Sunday morning was bright and shiny, a little chilly, but hopefully a turn … Continue reading A turn in the season

Hockey: the iPhone edition

This weekend the peeps got together with some friends and attended a local, minor league hockey game. While not on the same level of excitement as a pro team game, we all had a good time. There was the zamboni - always a favorite - and the obligatory fights. Gloves and helmets flying, and a … Continue reading Hockey: the iPhone edition

Grey skies

February 18, 2012January 6, 2015 ~ Tara R. ~ 19 Comments

Headed out to the beach on a gloomy, grey day. I like the lighting on days like that. It gives the beach an almost surreal effect. I also found another old, abandoned building. I would love to know the stories surrounding these places. Maybe, I'll just have to make up my own. (Photos shot with … Continue reading Grey skies

Colder than it looks

February 12, 2012January 6, 2015 ~ Tara R. ~ 25 Comments

Hopped around some for my photo hike this weekend, stopping at several locations. Drove out to Navarre and walked the fishing pier again. It was a little cloudy when the day started out, and the sky was amazing. Took the long way home through Milton and then hit a few spots nearer to home. It … Continue reading Colder than it looks
