This weeks theme for the hunt is Stripes. Usually I just include one photo and call it good, but this week I’m going to post a few photos I found that fit. Why? Well… because I couldn’t pick just one.
We went on a cruise and I loved this long row of lounge chairs. This was taken before the ship actually set sail which is why they’re empty. Normally they’d be pretty packed with peeps getting a tan, reading, relaxing, napping… you name it.
This is the little guy, Weston, with the Ref. He’s really not a huge toy guy. He loves to play chuck it, to have the ball thrown for him, to chew on his bully stix, and to be loved on. Strangely he loved this guy and chewed, pulled, and gnawed at him until all his stuffing was gone.
We went on a little road trip a year or so ago and this was taken while driving Hwy 101 from California, through the Redwoods, to Oregon. We hadn’t planned going this way, but were forced to as the Siskiyous were snowed in and I-5 was briefly closed. It ended up being a great drive, though it rained and rained and rained. We saw some cool elk, stood next to huge grand trees, and spent a lot of time cracking up by the little mister’s (Weston’s) expressions.
Here she is, the little girly, Riley. She’s looking cute and small here. Must have had a recent haircut. She’s due for another. I think she’s going to look pretty cute. But then, I always think she looks really cute.
Lastly… here’s one taken during our recent road trip down to San Jose to see family. That’s me, in the side view, taking the shot.

These are fun photos and I like the road trip ones the best
Happy weekend!
Nice photos of stripes.
Happy weekend.
Wish I could be in a cruise liner and see some stripes. Nice pick for this weeks theme
Great selection of shots. I’m sure there are many fans who would love to do that to a referee! Happy weekend
Thought this was worth a repeat in case you missed it the first time…so good in coffee, over ice cream or on the rocks…
Speaking of Bailey’s…Hey Kids, you can try it at home!
Here’s the recipe that will make your tastebuds sing the “Hallelujah Chorus” (and clog your arteries) but life is too short to worry about that all the time so here goes:
Homemade Irish Creme:
10 ounces of Irish whiskey
16 ounces of whipping cream
1 can of sweetened condensed milk
1 tablespoon of chocolate syrup
1 tablespoon of instant coffee
1 teaspoon of coconut extract
Throw it all in a blender, whirl it up and put in jars and keep in the frig and enjoy! Yousa! Personally I find it to be industrial strength good!
Jan… This is a great recipe! Most excellent! Thanks for posting.
Nice shots. I love weston with his toy. You can really see the love.
Thanks for stopping by.
I’m glad you showed us all of your stripes. Great shots for the theme.
Great photos for this week!
If you published a book of your great photos, I would be one of the first in line to buy it! Always such a pleasure to look at them!
The first one is by far the best. It is excellent to say the least. Between the first chair, the hand rail and the ship you have an excellent frame for the other chairs. The repetitive pattern plays off nicely with the stripes. I wish someone were sitting at the end
