I also love the picture of the tree by the river. That may be a framer! Glad to hear from you; hope all is well with you and yours!<br /><br />*JulieJhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16165150975639192517noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4220573330911608177.post-12801862373448453582011-07-13T12:21:17.816-05:002011-07-13T12:21:17.816-05:00So glad you had such a fine time.

Oh, what fun nights those were! You think SkyBar would even let us in? We're just a few years shy of a decade older than everyone else in there :) If Tim Tyler is on the schedule for football season, I don't care how out of place we feel...We. Are. There!<br /><br />I hope you have a lovely week, friend!<br /><br />*JulieJhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16165150975639192517noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4220573330911608177.post-64410359844169965012011-07-11T09:31:17.232-05:002011-07-11T09:31:17.232-05:00Sounds like y'all had a wonderful adventure - ...Sounds like y'all had a wonderful adventure - and your pictures are beautiful! I literally got chills when reading about The Hollywood and remembering those Tim Tyler nights :) Sometime during football season we may have to pretend we're young and up for fighting crowds again just to relive that experience!The Millers - Happily Ever Afterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09473993422130353122noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4220573330911608177.post-85560717663584765272011-07-09T17:42:13.007-05:002011-07-09T17:42:13.007-05:00Annesta, what fun that must've been!

My mom and I would both like very much to see Graceland someday...you know, past the parking lot :) Since it was after 2:00 when we arrived, and we had a 5 hour drive back, we decided to pass. Maybe one day, though! I've never heard of Muscatine...I'm off to look it up! Thanks for the compliment. I try to practice every day, and most of the shots I take aren't blog-worthy. I usually only share the good ones :)<br /><br />Thanks for your comment, friend! Happy weekend!<br /><br />*JulieJhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16165150975639192517noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4220573330911608177.post-11459981930648635882011-07-09T10:44:28.054-05:002011-07-09T10:44:28.054-05:00Julie,

My dad was the president of the Elvis fan club..hehehe!! Seriously had a wonderful time and love the Mississippi river. My aunt (dad's only sister) lived in Muscatine Ioha and I loved seeing the Mississippi there, too. http://www.muscatine.com/<br />Loved this post with all the pictures...you are really a great photographer.<br />enjoy your weekend<br />~aAnnestahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03960187022406492585noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4220573330911608177.post-75744402406077405282011-07-09T08:55:39.508-05:002011-07-09T08:55:39.508-05:00Kristi, the flowers on the tree were actually more...Kristi, the flowers on the tree were actually more reddish/magenta, but for some reason it didn't translate when I took the picture. The lighting was weird at that moment so maybe that was why. It still looks pretty, though! <br /><br />I'm excited about your new camera! My advice is to practice a little bit every day. I haven't read any books or taken classes, but I do try to take pictures every day. Most of them aren't amazing, so I just share the good ones :) Congrats on your new purchase, and thanks for dropping in!<br /><br />*JulieJhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16165150975639192517noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4220573330911608177.post-82675374274684966582011-07-09T08:53:18.273-05:002011-07-09T08:53:18.273-05:00Molly, I'm glad you liked it!

I bet you can find somewhere in your neck of the woods with some good fried green tomatoes. Let me know if you find some!<br /><br />Thanks for stopping by, and enjoy your weekend!<br /><br />*JulieJhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16165150975639192517noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4220573330911608177.post-29917299607130280972011-07-08T22:56:28.310-05:002011-07-08T22:56:28.310-05:00That does sound fun!

And I loved the lonely little sunflower.<br /><br />To answer your question, my camera is a Nikon L120...it does look similar to yours but not as fancy & I can't seem to take good looking pics like you! I need to practice on outdoor things.Kristihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12488915703818352440noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4220573330911608177.post-63434808772689447602011-07-08T15:47:26.517-05:002011-07-08T15:47:26.517-05:00OMG.
