Cee’s challenge topic this week: 5+ items
While visiting friends last month at their cozy house by the lake, I noticed hats-at-the-ready on a wall near the back door.
Perfect for grabbing before heading outside…to enjoy another day in the sun.
Inspired by Frank at Dutch goes the Photo. The prompt: Wall
One November day last year, I caught the last colors of nature…holding on tight… before winter arrived…
…and erased them from the landscape.

I drink coffee every morning. Always out of the same mug – which is the perfect size for me. Large.
My daughter recently updated my go-to mug as a birthday gift. Purchased from a local pottery in the Washington DC Monroe Street Arts Walk area; my grandson in tow. So, technically, they both chose it for me.
A unique – work of art mug – handmade by Kuzeh Pottery…which is owned by women.*
I like that!
And I love my new mug…a beautiful shade of blue…holding just the right amount of coffee.
*I am hopeful that I live long enough to see women owned businesses so plentiful that mentioning this fact is redundant.

The year was 1971.
Joni Mitchell released Blue – one of my favorite albums…ever.
A few years later I was able to see her perform in concert on a cold winter night. Up in the balcony at The Music Hall in Boston. It was a magical evening spent with this amazing singer/songwriter.
My well worn vinyl copy still survives…
BLUE
by Joni Mitchell
Inspired by a challenge I recently discovered: Becky’s July Squares.
The theme for July is ‘blue‘, and I suggest we stay connected on our square adventures by either;

Looking across Lake Champlain in Vermont…
…and spotting New York State in the distance.
A perfect day.
