Welcome to the Photo a Day Project blog, where you can read about my adventures in my quest to take a photo every day for the whole year!
Art is Everywhere
Day 13
I was looking around for a photo today and came upon this graffiti, usually the graffiti on the trains around here are names and things like that. They are cool and all but this one was especially interesting, I really like it for some reason, I liked it so much I actually stopped in the middle of the road and snapped a picture. It's not what I normally would take for the photo of the day but as I said I like this painting. I wish I could get a really good graffiti artist to come and paint my whole room!

Saturday Walk
Day 12
It was unusually nice today, well not super nice but warmer than normal about 54 degrees so I decided to take the dogs for a short walk down at the lake. Not to long of a walk I mean lets not get crazy, it is still winter and it was kind of windy and of course i wasn't dressed quite right, but a walk none the less. The dogs had an great time, they walked 3 times as far as I did and smelled every blade of grass, tree and rock in the whole park. They were so busy they didn't even bother with other people or dogs at the park. I hope the dogs are tired enough to sleep the rest of the night, because I am.

Divot!
Day 11
I was thinking about my dogs, actually I was daydreaming at work thinking how I would like to be home with them sitting in the recliner watching tv. So I thought how would I take their photos, as if they were my kids (which they are, but I mean the 2 legged variety). So when I got home Divot was in a cooperative mood and just sat there and let me take her photo, I think it is the perfect photo because this is all she does, sit there and look at you, trying to will you to give her some sort of treat. It usually works, how could you refuse that face!

Feathers in the Sky
Day 10
Clouds are great, that is the clouds that float in pretty blue sky, not the clouds that blanket the sky and cover every inch of blue and blot out the sun. But pretty wispy, puffy white clouds are awesome. I think tomorrow it might rain, bummer, but there is always hope for a rainbow!

Greeting the Day
Day 9
It was another nice drive to work, another pink sky and more sun. It made an ordinary Wednesday a little nicer, as far as Wednesdays go. I wonder if we can make it three days in a row tomorrow.
