A Good Day from Morning til Night

January 29, 2014 By Talya Tate Boerner

Since I take a zillion pictures each day anyway, I thought I may as well join in on the Photo an Hour blog challenge with Southern Mess (great blog name, right?). The idea is to select a day and take one photo for every waking hour. (Why? Just because.) I chose last Saturday since I was actually doing something other than my two primary activities of writing and dog walking…

It was fun to document each hour on the hour. And since I got up before dawn there were lots of pictures.  I grouped them so it wouldn’t be too painful. (I hope.)

Without further adieu…

one photo an hour

5- black coffee; 6-still dark; 7-frozen water; 8-morning writing

one photo and hour

9-hot shower; 10-green smoothie; 11-kale harvest; 12-sweet Annabelle

one photo an hour

1-cool car; 2-pink cowgirls; 3-calf roping; 4-bull riding

one photo an hour

5-funnel cake; 6-cute boots; 7-brown calf; 8-onion rings

one photo an hour

9-mounted longhorn; 10-rodeo ticket; 11-historic saloon; 12-night night

 

It was a good day from morning til night… How was your Saturday?

    I’m afraid mine, today, would be all of my laptop. We’re snowed and iced in. Literally. The garage door is inoperative, the fence latch is frozen solid, and the front door won’t unlock. We’re trapped! TRAPPED, I TELL YOU!

    Snow day in Atlanta. 🙂

    This actually looks like so much fun to do! But just like you I would need for it to be a really fun eventful day or else all my pictures will be boring!
