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!
New Toys
Day 334
Today was a nice day, the sun was out, the sky was blue, the water even bluer. It was windy but even that didn't matter too much. But even with all the nice weather that wasn't the best part of the day, the best part was getting my new phone! I love the new toys and have to control myself or else I would be in the poor house, just with a lot of cool stuff.

The Willows
Day 333
I have always been fascinated by the willow trees that line the north end of Seneca Lake. I have no idea why they are there or how long they have been there, I just know they have been there forever. They are lined up like guards, for almost 2 miles and when the wind finally manages to blow one of the old ones down a new one is planted in its place, which is nice, there will be the big old trees guarding the lake for generations to come.
"For in the true nature of things, if we rightly consider, every green tree is far more glorious than if it were made of gold and silver." -Martin Luther
Fall Fishing
Day 332
I couldn't believe these guys were out fishing today. That takes dedication, it was only about 35 degrees and a little windy, but they were out there fishing away, I bet they were having the best time out there in the quiet on the lake with no one to bother them. If it weren't so darn cold I might have considered it myself.

The Sun Rises
Day 331
Another day, another sunrise, another photo. Sunsets are still my favorite but this time of year sunrises are hard to beat. Mostly because the sun comes up so late I am actually awake for the sunrise.
"With each sunrise, we start anew." -Unknown
Quiet Time
Day 330
It was a quiet day today, the lull after the eat fest of Thanksgiving. Not much was going on, it was cloudy and cold, the kind of day to stay in and watch tv. But I ventured out, I had stuff to do, one thing was to find a photo for the day. I saw this lone bird hanging out by its self and thought of all the zillion seagulls around I wonder why this one went down to the state park and stood on a pole. I mean there are crowds of the birds in parking lots all over town. Then I realized this bird was just doing what a lot of people wanted to do today, be alone after battling all the crazies shopping!
