The word is "mud" . . . . . . 

Well, you have all heard men talk about "the one that got away" usually in reference to fish.  That is what I keep encountering in my photo opportunities.

Cari was curious what I would find for the topic of the week. This time, Dave actually found it for me.  We are driving down the road, I've got myself wrapped up in a game of some sort on my phone and he tell's me - "You missed the two horses playing in the mud"  ! ! ! !  WHAT ???

That is the topic of the week - go back I say, go back !!

Of course, the horses aren't playing in the mud any longer, but one is rolling on the ground to remove the mud 

Yes, folks it is mud!  Not much mud, but it is mud and a horse. That's an added bonus.  Since I have no children here to put in the photos, I have added one cute horse!

That is honest to goodness Texas mud.   Nothing fancy, no clever editing, just plain ole mud!

On our way to St Patrick's Day . . . . 

We stopped for a bit 'o "green". 

As always, with my first impression of the topic of the week - I hated it!  So typical of me.  What in the world am I supposed to do with "green" ?

Well, by Sunday I had begun to have lots of thoughts about "green".  Green is one of my favorite colors but I have never thought about green as being a photo topic before.

OK, so I head off for a much needed walk. Did I take along the camera?  nope . . 

So, here we have picMonkey enhanced photos taken with my camera phone.

Lovely moss.  So soft, fuzzy and natural.  I just love it!  And a wonderful wild vine with a pretty red stem. Photo hint # ? something or other from was it Uncle Jim ?  Whatever and whomever, it does add a nice touch.

For St. Patrick's Day - have to add a photo of green clover!  Believe you me, I searched for a 4 leaf clover and still have never found one!  Someday, someday.

So, that was my walk and what I found along the way.  Still looking around my house I saw lots of green this week and came up with idea that I saw a certain daughter-in-law use on the topic of  "yellow" one time.  Here we have my "green" arrangement on the mantle.  All of these things except for the Starbuck's card and the mother-in-law plant are always on the mantle, not in this arrangement, but on the mantle. Sure isn't the shades of green found in my walk.

So, there we have this week's topic of  "green".

  Can't wait to see what the other folks come up with!
