do you see what i see?

i'm back already! hehe ;)

last week, rolando tagged me with this fun meme -- PhotoShow: 100 Meters! 

the object is to post four or more photos of things you see within 100 meters (or 328 feet, 1 inch...hehehe) of your home.


i'm sad it had to be about 20 degrees outside today, cause i'd have gone a little farther away from our property to take pix! ;)  plus, being nearly winter, there's not much but a lot of drab outside.  but let's see what i found...

an old birdhouse hanging in one of our fir trees. i love it, cause it looks like a little house on the prairie wagon! i should probably take it down and somehow clean it out.

a calendula in my herb garden. somehow, it's still fighting even near the end of november! we even had a light snow last week. tough little guy!!

we live right next to a cemetery (its not as creepy as it sounds!). there's a path from our yard into part of the cemetery, and this is the first grave i see every time we go for a walk. i always say a prayer for this little boy's family. he would have been 24 this year.

i'm looking up into our hawthorne tree. if you look closely, you can see its HUGE thorns! (up to 4 inches or so!) i love watching the chipmunks, squirrels and birds run through the branches like it's a piece of cake. plus, in the summer it has small, bright green leaves and tiny white flowers that smell heavenly.

there's a 4-car garage on our property that is rented out for storage. i'd love to see this old car in action!! 

 

i chose to tag a few folks who i think might capture our attention through their perspective!

 

i’ve been tagged! what do i do?

  • take photos up to 100 meters from your place
  • add your name to the original list linking to the post you’ve created
  • tag as many friends as you like!

  1. I am really not ignoring your tag (although I should warn you that I am the worst memeer ever, as I never follow the rules and take a really long time to even get around to it) but I have two huge deadlines on Monday. I'll try to get around to it next week.
    BTW, I should tell you that those aren't my flickr pictures. I try to disclaim that every time when I link to bird pics, but sometimes I forget. We'll see what I come up with. :)

  2. hey ern! really, dont worry bout the meme :D anytime i tag someone, its totally optional. get around to it whenever you have time! i promise, i wont stalk ya about it. hehe.
    i guess i didnt pay close enough attention to your flickr pix to see the disclaimer. oopsie! ;) but thanks for letting me know! they're still awesome, and i love how you keep track of every bird you see.
    hope you're havin a great tuesday. and dont work yourself too hard to make your deadlines! =D
