It’s alway satisfying to receive a photo and the sender says they thought of me when they took it. This photo was sent by my SIL Bobbie in Kansas City.
Bobbie says.
I took a photo of this lone shoe, seen during my regular early Saturday morning walk.”
Kansas City came from behind and beat San Francisco. It was a very exciting game and knowing family in Kansas was rooting for them, swayed our cheering for Patrick Mahomes and Coach Andy Reid, too.
I was knitting a sock. In all the excitement I dropped 3 stitches at various intervals and had to get up and move into a stronger light to pick them back up.
Heres what I photographed on a Thursday, January 30.
Posting this plate of the state of Kansas to honor the winners of the Super Bowl, Kansas City Chiefs.
Okay Aunt Bobbie (the one who gave Anna the Raggedy Ann and Andy dolls). Bobbie saw my almost Spring post of the flowering pear trees and then sent me a photo for the blog today. YIKES!
I was so hopeful. Just when I was thinking of how the earth will warm up and the buds and blossoms will burst. I was counting the days until Spring, ready for the winter to be OVER!
I love it when someone is inspired by my photos on the blog, though. Even if it is a snow photos. Well more that just any snow photo.
21 inches of snow in Kansas City in a week!!!
(Chicago John, this one is for YOU, too!) For everyone shoveling and plowing and hopeful that it will just all go away….and SOON.
(Rob, you must be so glad you moved out of Northern Illinois to Florida this year. Kristin, how was Hawaii? Sue, you enjoying Spring training in Bradenton?)
Thanks Bobbie for the photo today. Where are the crocus?

Two more responses, this time from faithful blog reader ROB

Ruth,
After seeing your blog I wanted to share these photos. The first photo is from a traffic cam showing my “old” office in the background and then I immediately went out and shot (with my trusty iPhone) the photo out our back yard, probably less than 2 minutes apart. I sent these back to my old office staff just to show them the “real reason” I moved from Northern Illinois…just in case someone really needed proof. Needless to say I got varied comments. Thanks again for challenging all to see life through “a different lens”.
Love ya,
Rob
Brrrrrr.
Reminds me of a song that my Music Monday Maestro might find….
