    Spring photos!

    Hi y'all! Just when I was about to give up on this idea, I got the idea to use the HTML guestbook module for photo sharing.  so...before I give up on this idea, I thought I would try it out. It won't work without YOU. Ü

    vegetables....

     
    It's is creeping past the  vegetable garden theme  time and you can start throwing your tomatoes at Aunt Tea right now.  (imaginary tomatoes only please.)
     
    I have been missing in action. I have had some unexpected busy-ness and some fatigue that has just made it hard to pay any attention to the blogs. I really do want to get it all caught up, and I want to visit you all!
     
    I will upload any flower photos that have come in, and will start a vegie album too. I have VERY LITTLE sent to me for vegie theme, so send them on in. I will upload them even if late.
     
    Give some thought to the Fair theme, it's right on top of us!

    Love is to the heart
    what the summer is to the farmer's year.
    It brings to harvest
    all the loveliest flowers of the soul.

     Get your photos
    in now for the new theme!

    Yes, sometimes the cursor freezes
    when making comments in the photo boxes.
    very bothersome!
    It usually works if you exit the album and come back.
    If you find I have misspelled something
    in a comment box somewhere, it likely means it froze and I just decided to add comment
    rather than coming back.

    Summer Water Play

    HMMMM....came over to add a few more photos and no image display on this site. Anyone else having the same trouble? it's 12:40 PST
    -----------------
    The problems seem temporary, and they seem to come and go a bit. Let's hope the MSN upgrades are smooth and none of us lose anything.
    -----------------
    I think most of us have had above average temperatures to deal with this week. We are headed into the hundreds for the weekend. If only we could go back to the beaches we visited early this summer.
     
     
    Where do you play in the water?

    You Are Strawberry Ice Cream

    A bit shy and sensitive, you are sweet to the core.
    You often find yourself on the outside looking in.
    Insightful and pensive, you really understand how the world works.

    You are most compatible with chocolate chip ice cream.

    Introduction to the Camera Club

    Recently I read of another blogger's participation in a community camera club. I thought it would be great fun to do an online version.
     
    I hope that you will love the idea and start sending in your photos!
    ***
    note:
    It's very easy to create a new hotmail address if you wish to guard your personal info.
     
    Here's how it works...
    Each week or two there will be a theme. You are invited to email me a photo to be included in the themed photo album. Your submission will be included in the themed photo album here. Each photo album will have a matching blog entry for your own comments and the comments of all visitors.
     
     
    Rules and Guidelines:
     
    -ALL PHOTOS MUST BE RATED G.
     
    -You must have a blog with a shareable link.
     
    -Your email address will not be published or shared with anyone by me.
     
    -Photos should be taken by youOccasional  submissions by a friend or family member with your name, email, blog link is acceptable.
     
    -Photos should not make or reflect negative statements, such as political statements, anti-culture sentiments etc.
     
    -Do not include text ON the photo.
     
    -Aunt Tea reserves the right to refrain from posting any photo. (though I'd rather not exercise it)
     
    **When you have a photo in the current album, you need to sign in and comment in the matching blog entry.
     
    TIPS:
     
    -Photos may be...
    beautiful, funny, sentimental...CREATIVE
     
    -Photos may be flawed or humble if it fits the theme perfectly. Any camera will do.
