Busy as a Bee!

I have had the best intentions to post some shots from our 17 days road trip, but so far I haven't been able to find the time.

Between doing things with the girls and the kitchen remodel I have been one busy bee!

I miss visiting your blogs.  I miss participating in weekly photo memes.  I miss having alone time.

I almost missed posting picture a day shots from June.  Gasp!

For those of you that have asked, the kitchen remodel is moving along at a nice clip.  All of the bases of the cabinets have been built.  The drawer boxes are in and the concrete counter tops are curing.

I think we have about 2 more weeks until the kitchen is complete.  I can't wait!

Surprisingly, cooking in the garage hasn't been as bad as I thought it would be.  Microwave, toaster oven, coffee pot, electric griddle (which is kind of lame) and my super powerful coleman stove....what more can a girl ask for?

Now if I could just convince some strong men to move my fridge out of my living room and put it in the garage things would be even easier.

You Capture - Vehicle

I wouldn't consider myself to be a car person.  I don't get all excited over new cars.  I do however get a little excited when I see old restored cars from the 50's.

I suspect I like cars from that generation because they remind me of my Grandparents.  My Grandpa was a car mechanic for Cadillac.  So of course they owned their own Cadillac.

I can still remember how little and safe I felt riding in the back seat of that boat of a vehicle.  Oh and the sound of the curb feelers as they dragged along the curb announcing my Grandma's arrival will forever be etched in my memory.

Here are a few fun shots of old cars I took during our 17 day cross country road trip.

I think I also like these old cars because I like shiny things and bumpers on old cars are always shiny.  Perfect for capturing your reflection.

What do you do with a bunch of old Cadillacs if you live in Texas?  Why you buying them in the ground and call them art.

The first shot was taken in Livingston Montana, the second in Williams Arizona and the last two were taken at the Cadillac Ranch somewhere along the I-40 in Texas.
