I grew up in the city, I work in the city and still live in the city. One of the great things about Buffalo, NY is you can drive about 15 minutes and you feel like you are in another world. If I go north I'm in Niagara Falls and if I drive south I'm in the country. So last month I drove north to take pictures of the falls for the "water" theme. This month I'm driving south to find barns. I am having a lot of fun. Thanks everyone..

Thanks so much for stopping by and leaving a comment so I know you were here.

Something I knew nothing about. So, like you, I googled blogs and WOW. Political blogs, family blogs, and then I saw Photography blogs! I read and read and found my love. <br /><br />Just by googling I found blogs that used prompts to get people out and participate with one another.<br /><br />Thus our Prompt addicts as well as finding a community of like minds. I had always been an avid photographer of my family and friends, but this became a new adventure. <br /><br />Just like your prompt, Carol, having an assignment is often exactly what we need to go on the "search".<br /><br />I will get out this month, I promise, but last night I was been digging through old folders (which is also good) to review old memories. <br /><br />Terri-- Love your Mosaic-- the story of your find was so fun!<br />hugs!Claudiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06061773932119197157noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7068408751309289035.post-6548312178182585322012-08-14T07:38:18.596-07:002012-08-14T07:38:18.596-07:00We have deserted barns but our roads are very litt...We have deserted barns but our roads are very little and quite often it's quite difficult to find a parking spot.
