Project 2012 - Week 27

 Day 182 - Any one need an oar?
 Day 183 - Well, this should have been a photo of fireworks but my family couldn't wait for me to get off of work and so I was left behind.
 Day 184 - With my in-laws staying right next door I haven't seen my children in days (of course working 3 jobs doesn't help). Anyways, I got to spend a couple of hours this morning with my little sea cookies ... now it's off to work.
 Day 185 - While watching the 4th of July (and Chatham's 300th) Day Parade I couldn't help but notice all the folks wearing blue shirts in memory of State Trooper Weddleton. Sadly he was killed earlier this year by not one but by two drunk drivers. Be safe everyone!
 Day 186 - Certainly not my best photo ... I worked my usually afternoon job and was suppose to have my evening free but got called into my other job. I didn't get home until 10:30 pm and this is the last thing I saw before going to bed.
 Day 187 - I spy with my little eye 3 blue robin's eggs.
Day 188 - Some of the items donated for this Girl Scout 100th Birhtday exhibit belonged to Charlotte Sims (my husband's grandmother).

Fast forward to 2012 - my kids soccer camp takes place at the local high school and what do you know .... the upper classmen spaces are painted as well.
 Day 181 - Got to love summer!
