A statue of an Olympic track and field athlete on display inside the Atlanta History Center's Centennial Olympic Games museum.

Grass, Turf, Lawn (183 of 365)

A portion of the large lawn at Swan House. The entire lawn is a beautiful, crisp green! Although, I must say, those two empty arches really bother me! :)

Regal (182 of 365)

It's a very regal looking house, isn't it? I really wish we'd been able to take photos of the interior of the home. It's been completely restored and is absolutely beautiful.

The stairs leading up to the rear entrance of Swan House.

Sunday Six: Week 26

This week's Six is the halfway point for the year! Kinda crazy to think that we're already halfway through 2009. This week is a very underwhelming Sunday Six. I had absolutely no opportunity to get out and take pictures this week because I was moving! So, today you get a random sample of pictures from around my new place.


My Curious George jack in the box.


A fun picture my Mom found for me. I have no idea where. Go Sox!


A cute little notepad I found recently at Swoozie's.


Spices and dried pasta sitting on one of my island shelves. I picked up the Mi Madre pepper sauce, Almendia (homemade almond milk), and Coqui Fire when I was in Puerto Rico.


The kitty I'm babysitting. She's not in the mood for a photo here.


But, here she is! :)

Hopefully this coming week will let me get out and take some photos! 'Til then . . .

Song Lyrics (179 of 365)

This photograph immediately brought to mind Bobby Darin and Jean Murray's song "Splish Splash (I Was Taking A Bath)." No idea why, but it does!

Photograph (178 of 365)

Swan House, located in the Buckhead area of Atlanta, is one of the most photographed homes in the city. It was built in 1928 for the Inman family and was designed by Philip Trammell Shutze. The home was named Swan House because of Mrs. Inman's love of birds.

Heart's Desire (177 of 365)

This statue is on the grounds of the Atlanta History Center, specifically, part of the gardens at the Swan House. I think he's looking up at her with such devotion in his eyes.

Distorted (176 of 365)

More rust, grunge and peeling paint. Although, I really do like the variations in color and texture.
