For those not into trains, an image on my Blog of Christmas at the Junction City Opera House. Happy Holidays all!

#WorldwideFamilyChristmasAlbum  curated by the lovely and talented +Louisa Catharine Forsyth and +Randy Jay Braun 

I took this image originally intending to share it yesterday for #FridaysAreBokehlicious  with my fellow #bokeholics  but thought it worked better for today and bokeh is good any day. Santa is on his way today and this is one of my train ornaments for the tree behind it which only has train related ones on it. Hope you enjoy the image! Have a very Merry Christmas to all who celebrate and a great day to all.

Because it Tis the Season, and #FridaysareBokehlicious  any time this is an older image but it fits well. I took this after an ice storm we had about a year ago now and was going to use it at another time but felt it worked perfectly for today. Hope you all enjoy it and have a great day as we really head into the Holidays!

Woohoo it's #FridaysAreBokehlicious  and my last day of work for 2 weeks! Although with the remodeling we are doing right now, I may wish I was back at work. Bwahahaha, nah! Anyway, my image is a bloom of a Geranium that I have indoors with the lights of the tree providing some festive holiday bokeh. Hope all my fellow #bokeholics  and everyone else enjoys it and that you have a lovely day!

Hi everyone!  Continuing on with my holiday celebration. I saw that there was a hashtag  for this, #feelingfestive  .  :-)  This is another image from Saint Joseph, Missouri from last year.  I was at the park that they decorate with different displays.  This one was right up my alley.  :-)  I hope you enjoy it and have a Very Merry Christmas.

Morning all, a dreary rainy day here in Kansas.  Going to brighten it up a bit with another image from my Christmas week celebration.  I took this image last year at the Nelson-Atkins Art Museum in Kansas City.  They had a lovely and tall Christmas tree in the entrance hall and I got a bit lucky with the amount of people around it.  I did take out about 3 people in the background though.  :-)  Hope you enjoy the image and have a great day!

Hi all!  I'm continuing on with my Christmas Season celebration.  Today's image is of a beautiful home in Saint Joseph Missouri.  It's a lovely large home to begin with but at Christmas time it is decorated so wonderfully.  It has a decorated tree in every window.  I took this from the road because I didn't want to be too intrusive and I like the perspective.  Hope you enjoy the image and have a great day!  It doesn't feel much like Christmas here, going to be in the 50s again today.  I like it but worry winter will come in March now.
