Upside Down

 
These were in the Bellagio Hotel in Las Vegas where all the REALLY nice stores are located. I loved how they looked. AVCR8TEUR also liked them here!

O'Hare International airport

Shannon is in the orange outfit saying goodbye to the girl she sat next to her on trip home from India via Singapore...I love all the people in this shot.

A Party

 
Between the raindrops of the 4th of July....we had a little celebration. Shannon and her dad enjoying some conversation and strawberries.... and a beer.

Flowers

 
With all the rain and cool weather, some of the flowers around us aren't doing so well. These are doing very nicely. They are in my neighbors yard. She obviously weeds waaaay more than I do!~

Flower

 
My great niece found the only red flower in the yard and had a wonderful time running back and forth across the yard.

Grill anyone?

 

We went to a restaurant called the Weber Grill. You can find a Weber grill in just about everyone's backyard. It is a charcoal grill that you cook your hamburgers and hot dogs on in the summer (other food as well...steak, chicken, etc.!!) This is a bronze statue at the restaurant we were at and I just liked it. This is anticipation of the 4th of July celebration. Many folks will be firing up their Weber's for the holiday!

soda anyone?

 
I guess even in India, kids will always love soda pop! Although, I have discovered that most Europeans and Asians are NOT a fan of our American Root Beer. Must be an acquired taste!
