Friday Shoot Out- 'M'

I want to pre-appologize, as I am in Texas now, and hubby had to remind me to post this. No photo shop, just right off the camera, so till next time, please enjoy...





















Let's start with the beautiful full 'M'oon I tried to capture last weekend. Reminds me of romance, so I howled and kissed my sweetie...



Love Remains The Same lyrics

A thousand times I’ve seen you standing
Gravity like a lunar landing
Make me want to run till I find you
I shut the world away from here
Drift to you, you’re all I hear
Everything we know fades to black

Half the time the world is ending
Truth is I am done pretending

I never thought that I had anymore to give
Pushing me so far
Here I am without you
Drink to all that we have lost
Mistakes we have made
Everything will change
But love remains the same

Find the place where we escape
Take you with me for a space
The city buzz, sounds just like a fridge
I walk the streets through seven bars
I had to find just where you are
The faces seems to blur, they’re all the same

Half the time the world is ending
Truth is I am done pretending

I never thought that I had anymore to give
Pushing me so far
Here I am without you
Drink to all that we have lost
Mistakes we have made
Everything will change
But love remains the same

So much more to say
So much to be done
Don’t you trick me out
We shall overcome
So all have stayed in place
We should have had the sun
Could have been inside
Instead we’re over here

Half the time the world is ending
Truth is I am done pretending
Too much time, too long defending
You and I are done pretending

I never thought that I had anymore to give
Pushing me so far
Here I am without you
Drink to all that we have lost
Mistakes we have made
Everything will change
Everything will change

I, oh I,
I wish this could last forever
I, oh I, I
As if we could last forever

Love remains the same
Love remains the same



'M'urals are always wonderful to stumble upon...























...in 'M'inville none the less...





















...and then you find a 'Mouthwatering' pit stop...




















...that just happens to have a mural painted on the front...























Can you believe we discovered a 'M'agical place...





















...where you come upon 'M'instrals singing...
































There inside the park you find the glass 'M'useum, where the old (above) 'M'ill still stands...



















...and sometimes you might find your marbles! This gadget on the right was used for sharpening knives, and you realize me being a chef I would have loved to sneak that one out in my purse to try...



















'M'ustard on a cheese steak? Hubby had not found his marbles yet...



















Sorry for this one, but 'M'ustard on the 'M'outh from my hot dog...






































Hey it's a 'M'aypole, how often do you see one of these?


'M'eadows are always beautiful...























'M'ilk glass dreams...I collect depression glass like this...




















'M'ore 'M'ilk glass...






















'M'emorials, and 'M'onuments...




















'M'arinas, and crabs selling @ $20 for a dozen...put on the boiling water!




















We were told that thousands of pounds of oysters and crabs came in and out of this marina less than twenty years ago...



















Hubby saw this 'M' find, and he has been getting into my new hobby...



















Yes, there really is a 'M'uscrat crossing, right next to the...



















...salt 'M'arshes surround in a blissful scenario...

Thanks for going on my 'M' jouney, as I am now in Texas. Hubby and I are having a great time with my friend and her husband. Lots of good food and good times going on, so I will keep you posted!
