Cook Out Week 2 - Ice Cream Sundaes

Bring on the heat. . .oh wait, it's already here and it's announcing its presence with authority (movie anyone?)  Of which I'm sure my boys will be oh-so-happy, what with the two ton of river rock being delivered later today that will need to be toted around to the backyard (and dumped and shoved into place.)  And then tomorrow the yards of dirt for the containers in the garden - again in the backyard.  The only positive, this only needs to be done once. . .next year we'll have great dog/rabbit-proof gardens ready for planting.

Yesterday's Big Picture Phone Photography assignment was Summer Colors.  Doing the Roy G. Biv deal.  This was the (sort of) Roy G. Biv found in my garden.  Late last night I was looking around the house, and inspired by some non-garden photos from other students, I came up with another version of this assignment.  So I'm gonna snap some shots around the house today and do a round two.  Outside of the wonky margins, I think I may be getting the hang of this collage app.  I still have two back assignments to complete.  One requires a drive to Olde Town and the other I have two of the three photos required.
