When she was thirteen, Leann Rimes had a huge hit with BLUE. Story goes it was originally written for Patsy Cline, who died before she was able to record it. I don't know how much truth there is to that, but it is a good story. Here are the last of the February Project 2010 entries. I present to you...BLUE!
Last week's color was green and we were surprised at the variety of photos that came in. Be sure and vote for your favorite on our FaceBook Fan Page! And remember the current color is Blue!
...and they call it mellow yellow. The color yellow is the first color your brain recognizes and identifies, it happens a milisecond before your brain registers all other colors. That is why there is so much yellow in advertising. And caution tape!
Recently I spent some time at Yorba Regional Park with a friend. We visited and spent a couple hours looking for inspiration. Our conversation was sometimes intense and sometimes light, but a good friend and a long walk are sometimes just what the soul needs. I only took a few photos, but when we were lucky enough to stumble upon some bees, doing the things that bees do, I started snapping away!
We spent some time walking through a new park we've discovered, and came across some wild mushrooms. What struck us was the tragic beauty of these disgusting little spores. We have always believed that beauty presents itself everywhere, all you have to do is see it.
I was born, as many of us were, a very young child. The hospital was in Connecticut , and so were my parents, which made it convenient. Until the age of 7, I grew up in a small Massachusetts town called Middleboro. I had a better than average childhood with very little money. I spent days playing with my friends, picking berries, and generally finding mischief wherever I could. Only once were the police involved.
I met Evelyn at a time when my life was at a crossroads. Her love saved my life and gave me hope.
