A Photo a Day

Today's photo is a "Blast from the Past"

Back in the 50s Blue Waltz perfume was found in every five and dime or "dimestore" as we called it - usually Woolworths. It cost about 50 cents a bottle, so every little girl had one setting on her dresser.

As it happens, there is a "dimestore" in downtown Branson, Missouri, that carries many items from the past, and this is where I found this bottle. It cost a bit more than 50 cents though.

We tried a Gra-pple today. I would say, don't waste your money. At $1.25 each, they still can't beat Pink Ladies.

How fun! Is this the inside of a corner or the outside?

Today we visited Gary and Cheryl Stone who had friends over from their days at "the farm." It had been 20-something years since some of them had seen each other. Of course, Bill and I got pictures of everyone but it didn't seem just right to post one of those pics. At one point during the day, I went outside to get my photo of the day. That's when I came across the fence. I have a tendency to focus on the "big picture" rather than details. This is an attempt to find art amongst the larger and more mundane things in life.

William's basketball game today - the game is so fast. I particularly liked this shot of him running - lots of energy!

This was the best of the day. Though the park was beautiful, I felt pressed for time and tried to get only what I thought might be nice. Meantime, artistic creativity suffered.

Today I was out for a couple of hours traveling around the countryside and eventually ended up in the park a mile or so away. Tomorrow's challenge will be to find something much closer.
