Tricolored Tuesday #8

Getting to the end of my December 1st shots, finally. I have one more batch to post and then I'll be done with this series.








This week and the next, blog visiting will be a bit sporadic for me. I am working from home for my former boss. Also, starting Monday evenings, Double D and I enrolled in a birding class at LSU. The class is taught by the president of our local Audubon Society. I'll try to visit when I can.

I so appreciate the wise and wonderful words on my mom's memorial post yesterday. Y'all are amazing and I love each one of you!

Adopt the pace of nature: her secret is patience.

Oh enjoy those classes!!! I'm sure you'll tell us all about what you've learned in time...right? I'm hoping so anyway.

Love your Tri-colors as always.

I'll borrow your word today: Fabulous! I love them all, but #5 is special, with that gorgeous reflection. If you're running out of shots from December, it may be time to pay another visit to the golf course. :)

The class sounds wonderful. Work, I'm not sure (but glad if it's what you want to do! And at least its from home).

I had the nerve to post a tri-colored today....nobody who has seen your blog ever will be at all impressed with mine.

Speaking of classes, I think you should offer an online class for beginner photographers.

Just sayin'. :)
