I found a scatter picking, blueberry throwing girl in the u-pick blueberry field.

Find No. 2


 I found some lovely rusty bolts on a bridge at Van Raalte Farm last week Friday.

Find No. 3


I found a lovely little tug boat named Martha in Lake Macatawa.

Find No. 4


These are some of the books found on my to-read bookshelf.

Find No. 5


We found just enough time before my girl heads back to college to squeeze in a trip to Captain Sundae for ice cream. A small Tommy Turtle sundae for me and a Salty Dog sundae for my girl.

It looks like you had some fun with your girl before she heads back to college. :) I love the rust bolt. That little green/blue stuff growing on it makes it all the more interesting, the DOF and the dark green in the background all come together to make one great shot. The ice cream looks yummy too. Have a great weekend!

I remember watching you take the photo of the rusty bolts, love the way you edited it. The book Serendipity is on on my to read list. Laughed at the title of the Nora Ephron book. Great finds. Knoeww you will be missing M as she returns to school. In TC right now. Thought of you as we were driving thorough the Mission Penninsula.

It is nice that you got to spend so much time with your daughter but I know you must feel the pinch now of her having to return to school...you both have beautiful memories though...especially those ice cream Sundae's...also love the book shelf...we share several books there...enjoy.

Lynne said...

Like your random finds, (always)
and the final sundae pic will probably be the reason I will have to have a salty dog sundae today!
From somewhere . . .

Nothing like a good piece of rust to capture. Love things like this, so much character.

I thought the sundaes were a case of 'mine's the biggest!'.

Have a great week xx

Donna Hopkins said...

Always look forward to seeing what you've found . . . and this week the photo of your blueberry picking daughter brought great smiles. Seeing the world through your pictures, I can imagine you at work - seeking out the defining moment, the best angle, or the view that says it all. I've read many of the books in your stack, and that sundae looks like heaven on earth!

Deanna said...

Oh such great finds...love the image of your blueberry daughter and those ice cream sundaes look really, really yummy!!!

Diana said...

Really love the image in the field. Nice.
