Happy Birthday to Tisha!
Cloudy and rainy here in Michigan today. Enjoying quiet days at home with Eyad.
We leave a week from today for Orlando, where it is forecasted to be in the 70's (while it will be in the 40's up here).
Tentative plans for our 3 days in Florida: DisneyWorld, a trip to the beach, and Universal Studios.
Today's photo is one I took of the mossy ground in a cemetery, while Eyad was taking a panoramic shot of trees.
I did the selective coloring on Picnik.
Enjoy,
Mo

The last weekend of October is like a blur to me - it was the last days of my being in The Wren's Nest, and we were clearing out the last stuff, filling the dumpster with loads of boxes, and painting like crazy. Needless to say, Eyad's first Halloween in America wasn't that spooktacular.
We still have two un-carved pumpkins sitting on the counter in the kitchen today.
He did get a great picture of our friend Bessie, dressed up as a very classy witch, on Halloween, and we watched Sleepy Hollow on DVD, but that was the extent of our - spooky festivities.
I had taken several pictures that I had fully intended to edit for the week of Halloween, and never got around to them, except for one, which never got posted. So here it is, better late than never, right? (Hey, I got it up before Thanksgiving!)
This is Sumnerville Cemetery, south of Dowagiac, where many soldiers from the War of 1812 are buried.

To see a non-spooky view of this cemetery, visit Eyad's panoramic pic on Flickr.
Cheers,
Mo

Today, Eyad and I slept in, and I only got one small project done - covering a cat-scratch rip in my desk chair - that was necessary because Bella wouldn't stay out of the hole.
Here's another of my fall color pics, again from a Michigan cemetery.
Hope you had a nice weekend,
Mo
In spite of the sad news we received this week, and my friend Betty being in the hospital, Eyad and I have had a nice week together. This coming week, we are planning our trip to Orlando for Thanksgiving, and working on finding me a job.
Eyad has also been hard at work on re-vamping his photography website, and if you haven't seen it lately, you should pop over and explore the albums. His photos are also available for purchase on RedBubble.
Here's another of my recent autumn pictures. This one is poison ivy growing on the crumbled stone foundation of a long-gone building on the banks of the St. Joseph River in Niles, Michigan.
Enjoy your weekend,

Yesterday, Eyad and I went out to run some errands (kitty litter), and stopped by several cemeteries to take some pictures. This area of Michigan doesn't seem to have many public parks that are photogenic, so local cemeteries often offer the best seasonal photo ops.
This picture is actually from about two weeks ago (I haven't uploaded/edited yesterday's pics yet!) ~ from a day when Bessie and Eyad and I went out to photograph some fall colors. We were all glad we went that day, for the next several days were cold and windy and rainy, and most of the great colors ended up blowing away.
I have more fall color pics to share in the next couple of days.
Cheers,
Mo
Taken last week - at the local China Buffet, where Bessie introduced Eyad to the wonderful world of Ice Cream Floats.
It is Coke and Vanilla Ice Cream, by the way - neither Eyad, Bessie, or I like Root Beer.
