July 31 - August 2

July 31
I drove two hours to my hometown and spent the afternoon with friends. While I was there, we dropped by the Windston Churchill Memorial so I could snap some photos.


I love the old Christopher Wren church (where Churchill gave his "Iron Curtain" speech) and the section of the Berlin Wall sitting in front of it. What a neat place, but I always forget to appreciate that it's right there in my own hometown.

Shona usually hates wearing jeans. It is a battle every year to buy school clothing for her because of this. This year, though, she tried on a dozen pair, picked out five and even liked them so much she wanted to wear a pair to "break them in" before school. I wasn't about to argue with her newfound love of jeans!


August 2
An old covered bridge in my home town. Up until about ten years ago, it was just another part of traffic in town. They finally closed the road off, refurbished the bridge and made it foot traffic only. It really is a lovely little place.
