Friday Happy Dance

A Blog About Life, Travel, Photography & Candy.

Today I am doing the "Happy Dance" all day because tomorrow at "O Dark Hundred" my husband and I are flying to Arizona for 10 days! We have a home in Lake Havasu City, AZ. For those of you going "where the heck is that?", it is in the Northwest part of Arizona on the border with California. It is 2 1/2 hours South of Las Vegas. It is one of our favorite places.  It is home to the famous London Bridge.  We hope to be able to retire there one day.

Here is an article from our friends at Digital Photography School. It explains how to make your photos "Tell A Story". You don't have to be a Photo Journalist to do this. It takes some thought and you need to include something in the shot that tells you something about your subject's life. http://www.picturecorrect.com/tips/photography-composition-tips-how-to-tell-a-more-compelling-story/

Here is a link that shows some great examples of abstract photography. This is so much fun to do and is a great way to get some practice. http://www.digital-photography-school.com/31-amazing-abstract-images

Here is a Blog that I just started following. It is all about slowing down and enjoying the here and now. I must say I am not real good at this but I sure would like to be. http://www.positivelypositive.com/2012/03/09/the-art-of-slowing-down/

I had gentleman come in today who is interested in renting space to teach classes on how to be a Bounty Hunter. That is one thing I had never thought of but could be really interesting. I will keep you posted on that one.

We should have our Easter Candy shipment in the store next week. We have several candies in green packaging for your St. Patrick's Day celebration as well.

It sounds like the weather is going to be wonderful this weekend. I hope you will get out and enjoy it. It is a great time to come to Downtown Lakeville for some Retail Therapy.

Thanks for reading my Blog!
