244/365: I returned from my trip Out West and immediately left for a family reunion at a state park in north Missouri. It involved s’mores. It was fun.
245/365: Another from the family reunion. This cutie makes an appearance twice in the 365 project this month.
246/365: A picture of (most of) the family.
247/365: Purple coneflower in my front yard.
248/365: Shadows on my popcorn ceiling.
249/365: The Mongolian chain restaurant in my town has a Make-Your-Own-S’mores dessert option, which my sister chose as a birthday dessert to share.
250/365: White clover in my backyard.
251/365: My dog in the white clover in my backyard. It was past dusk. She likes to sit outside and monitor the world with an eye on the house.
252/365: I was really sick. Really, really sick. I took this with my iPhone because I was sick.
253/365: The front yard of my parents’ house is so lush in the summer with hostas and green things everywhere.
254/365: Milkweed grew all over my weedy backyard this summer, which was much appreciated by the local bees.
255/365: Hydrangea in my front yard. I love hydrangea.
256/365: My bedside table lamp and stack of unread books.
257/365: Coreopsis in my backyard.
258/365: A trip to DC at the end of June for a work conference, but it involved visiting family & friends and eating at lovely restaurants.
259/365: Inside the DC Metro (the Chinatown/Gallery Place stop).
260/365: A building in downtown DC with pretty blue sky behind it.
261/365: A 5-month-old cutie-pie.
262/365: Old friends and their toddler.
263/365: Another family photo!
265/365: These grow in my backyard as well, but I am not sure what they are. They kind of look like orchids, but I am sure they are not.
266/365: Purple shamrocks in a pot. This was for a friend because how I acquired the first purple shamrock corm was… hmm, well, maybe not very ethical.
267/365: Acquisition of purple coneflowers in my yard was entirely ethical. They continue to multiply regardless of my feelings on the subject.
268/365: The second of the two pictures of this cutie. I love her blond hair that goes all curly in the Missouri humidity.
269/365: A chair in my living room- a vintage Cromcraft fiberglass shell chair.
