Here are today’s prompts:
Vacation, Food, Sound, Texture and Anything. And here are my entries.
I haven’t been on a VACATION for a while, but
this Friday I decided to go out to Northampton, Massachusetts, where my
daughter lives for a “daycation.” Our
intentions were to go to the Smith College Art Museum to see an exhibit there,
but unbeknownst to us, Friday started Alumnae Weekend there and the place was
crawling with people. We opted for a
nice ride out into the country instead.
The weather wasn’t all that nice. It was drizzly and cool. So we didn’t
get out of the car until we reached Flayvors of Cook Farm in Hadley to have a
small dish of ice cream. Well, it is
asparagus season here in Massachusetts and they grow a lot of it in Hadley. Asparagus is one of my favorite FOODs, but
this is the first time I’ve ever tasted asparagus ice cream. Two thumbs up!!
Back home, we have huge azalea bushes in front
of our house and this time of year, the bees are out in full force. They make a great buzzing SOUND as they go
about their work.
This is a piece of “driftwood” that I found in
the woods near our house. It’s not
really driftwood, I don’t think, because I found it in the woods not by the
ocean but I liked it and now it ornaments our front garden. I think it has a great TEXTURE.
If there's ANYTHING I like, it's a dandelion. They have really caught me this year.

Wonderful images for your photo hunt. I love asparagus, but I am not too sure about asparagus ice cream? I love the first shot, pretty spot. Happy weekend to you!
Oh fun line-up this week. Asparagus Ice Cream....can't seem to get my taste-buds around that. Have a lovely week ahead!!
love the thick woods in the first shot. asparagus ice cream - hmmm. guess it might be similar to green tea ice cream? :)
Interesting photos and lovely azalea flowers !!!!
Asparagus ice cream? Hmmmm. Beautiful photos Barbara. I love the road shot.
Barbara,
The azalea and dandelion pictures are amazing!
Have a great Memorial Day!
I like your daycation - very nice road trip, and I'm all about ice cream - but hummm, not so sure on asparagus though. Excellent job on the hunt.
Yummy! I would adore asparagus ice cream, and now i must find one somewhere.
Beautiful photos. I love the 'driftwood' too. It's lovely.
i love asparagus but it just doesn't seen right to make it ice cream ;)))
the road in the woods, gorgeous!!
These are really nice! I like the road and driftwood!
all shots were great I like the first the most and that trunk there it seems like a human leg or something
Very good shots, every one! WoW! =)
Oh, I admire that shot of the buzzing bee....I tried for nearly an hour this past April to get a good shot of a bee that was hanging around our irises. Great job!
all your entries for the prompts are so great!
Fantastic set. That winding road shot for your "daycation" is really cool. To bad the weather wasn't better.
Asparagus ice cream, seriously!
Your twisted piece of wood is very textural and interesting.
Great shot for sound too with the buzzing bee.
The Dandelion shot is fabulous and my favorite from your set this week.
Great shots this week. Sounds like a nice daycation! Asparagus ice cream sounds interesting. I love asparagus so I'm sure I'd like it. The driftwood for your garden is so pretty! It 'drifted' through the woods to your garden, so it can be called driftwood. Why not?!
They are all marvelous, but I really dig the bee image.
