I'm singing in the rain, just singing in the rain; What a wonderful feeling, I'm happy again.

Why does it always rain on the 1st day of school? Chloe Belle had to wear her
raincoat on Monday, which was okay with me because she looks so sweet in it. In the morning, as we are headed out the door I usually find myself saying, "Line up by the door. It's time to go." So, that's what Chloe did when I snapped this photo. She's all lined up by the door.
This weeks theme at the In a Yellow House photo challenge is Trees. I had several photos to choose from, but chose this one. Do you remember it? It's from the day we visited the Enchanted Garden or the Botanical Gardens, what ever you want to call it.
These trees are so statuesque I couldn't back up far enough to get the whole tree in my photo. Seriously, they are that big, and the coast is that close, I would need to be standing on a dingy boat in the Gulf in order to capture the entire tree.
Two Trees
Centuries Old
Have Grown Together Through Time
They share History, Food, the Sunlight and the Earth
Their roots are Entwined and Exposed, like a heart beating
outside of its body
The challenges for the month of August are being hosted by Ashley at Ramblings & Photos. She has some amazing tree shots, and they make me want to take my camera everywhere I go. Please visit her beautiful blog and link up a picture of your favorite tree.
I know as thrilled as you are with the pics I've posted of Chloe Belle on the Beach, and my favorite Tree, you are still pining for vacation pics. Well, I hate to admit that I haven't edited a single one! Gah. Where does the time go? I know, it was gobbled up with a wonderful play date last night, a meeting with our realtor, bath time routines, bedtime stories, and picking out pictures of trees.
The good news is that all of the pics are on my computer, I just have a little editing to do. I'm hoping to get that done tonight, and then maybe by Friday I'll have something worth while to share, and gab about.
Toodles,
