REDLANDS DURING THE SECOND WEEK IN AUGUST

I won't be writing much on my posts - I think I'm going to go back to my front porch posts soon - and will start with some today.  I use to be more motivated to blog here when I had a "theme". 

During the hot summer days even here in the mountains, we would get in the car and go driving and usually end up in some of my favorite neighborhoods.  It would be too hot to walk much but we did get out for a bit. 

Redlands is one of those places that have businesses in the older homes as you can see from the photos near the bottom.

I rarely have anybody say anything when I'm out with my camera.  It has only happened two times in all these years someone asked me why I was taking a photo of their house. 

Yesterday we went to Big Bear and I was taking a photo of Pedal Path along the hwy in Fawnskin (very scenic drive) when this jogger looked up and gave me the finger when we drove by in the car, lol.  She had no idea that I could care less if I got her picture or that she gave me the finger, it was funny and it kind of makes it all worth while when I get a "reaction" ....!

  1. These are all so nice, especially that big yellow one with the palm tree lined avenue running in front of it! I always look forward to the cooler weather so I can get out and get pictures with ease and not be sweating so much! Hope it is a rainy winter, I hope I hope I hope!

  2. That's funny about the jogger. I love that giant yellow house with the porch/balconies and the turret like on the corner--Wow! I wouldn't want to own it and have to clean it, but I like the way it looks. Ha!

  3. Third picture down, little gray cottage with blue trim, I dream of a little place just like that surrounded by a wild (as in not-tidy and no straight lines) flower garden.

    Love your photos.
