Around 11:30 I met Jesse, Christy, and her father for coffee at 318 Coffee and  Bands.
   
After a fun time talking, playing, and hanging out we went back to Christy's house.  I took a short nap with Jesse.  I rarely take naps.  It was nice.
  
Later, Christy, Jesse, and I went back to the coffee shop for some more coffee and fun.

You should know by now that hardly a week goes by that I don't have to stop for a train.  This was no exception.    

I used to have a large collection of masks.  I've gotten rid of a lot of them.  I've hung on to this one, but it is destined to go.  I just can't see it in an RV.
    
Jesse and I were in the Home Depot the other day and I was wheeling him around in the shopping cart when we came across this flower.  He patiently waited (which is saying a lot for a two-year old) for me to take a few pictures.
  
The stores are all merchandising for Valentine's Day.  These stuffed animals are cute. The bear is the one that caught my eye.  He is one cool bear dude.
  

This is the third week in my '1pm in my life project'. I'm getting better at getting them at 1.

 Christy and I went for a hike at Cheaha Starte park.  It was a great day for hiking, not too hot or too cold.  The light was too harsh for  photography though.  I think that will be the case for outdoor photos most the time at 1pm. 
    
 This is along Tallasahatchee Creek. I was driving and happened to be passing by here at 1pm so I stopped at the bridge and walked down to the creek for a few shots.
   
I got a little out of control on this one.  I was playing with the Diptic app again. On the left is one of Jesse's riding toys.  Above right is a piece of pink quartz with an arrowhead laying on top.  The bottom right is a section from a geode.  All these items hang out in the sun room where I stay.
     
This is also in the sun room.  It is a drum my aunt and uncle gave me years ago.
 
Christy and I went out for coffee at the new coffee shop in town, 318 Coffee and Bands.  It won't be long until I'll be back to photograph when a band is there.  The coffee was outstanding and so was the atmosphere.
  
On Friday I had a meeting an hour's drive from home.  I was stopped at a red light when it was time to take a picture. 
  
    I had a great time the day I took this picture.  I spent the day with Christy and Jesse.  Most of that time I spent on the floor.  I like to get down on the child's level.  He likes it too.  It also provides a different point of view for photos. 
   

 

After visiting a consignment shop, we stopped in the beauty parlor for some beautification.  Christy, not me.  There is no hope for me.
 
  

    

     
 

 I've taken and posted a lot of pictures of this little fellow.  He keeps me company when I'm sitting on the front porch.  I suspect he will be keeping me company in the RV.
     
 I discovered a logistical problem with this project.  It is better to pull over to take a picture.  Driving and picture taking just isn't the 'A' plan.
  
 I guess you have picked up on my fascination with black and white photos of magazine racks.  I was waiting to check out when I took this picture.  Maybe I should switch back to the candy rack.
  
I do eat.  This is what I cooked for lunch today.  I'm not sure what to call it.  It is pizza fixings on a flour tortilla.  It was tasty so I'll probably make it again.

I'm going to try another week of these to see how it goes.
