My Window View: 12 Kuvaa, 12 pics



August 9: You can almost see the heat in the haziness of the sun. 100 degrees this week and very 
humid. The trash cans are out waiting for pick-up, and very noticeable to us is our large, huge, 
green recycle cans. I wonder if I could ever fill one to the brim.


July 9: Another hot summer day. You can almost see the heat and humidity as the photo is a bit hazy. Already in the high 80s (F) at 7:00 in the morning. This is the week we celebrate the independence of our country so it is common to hang a flag outside our door for the week.


June 10, a little late this month, taken on a very humid and hot summer morning. We continue to have had a lot of rain, and still need to cut the grass frquently.


May 3, 2010 The weather is turning warmer, the blossoms are gone and the grass is needing to be cut every 5 or 6 days. The house across the street has a "For Sale" sign on it. New neighbors down the street cut down all their trees and shrubs planted a lawn. Changes out our window--in just a month.

April 2, 2010. Spring is here with all its glory. Rich green lawns, spring flowers, blossoming trees. Across the street and down a few houses a new neighbor moved in and cut down all the trees and other landscaping features on the front lawn, and planted grass.

March 2, 2010. More snow! What is happening to our weather? We never have snow in March here in North Carolina, and rarely have more than one snow a season. This year we have had quite a bit. We love it though. This snow is not going to stay around long and is barely covering the ground.

Feb. 1, 2010. Finally, snow! Can you sense the quiet that is in our cul de sac with the new fallen (and very rare) snow? No one goes anywhere here in the South when it snows. We wait for it to melt!


January 8, 2010. Happy New Year! You'd never guess from this picture that we had a sprinkling of snow last night, and that the temperature is 32. F. Very cold for the south! But all is quiet here, as no one ventures out unless he or she has to!

Dec. 3, 2009. We are in the midst of a huge rainstorm. Notice the street lights are on, and down the street you can see Christmas lights on a front porch. The trees are almost bare, but not quite. The grass is dotted with pine needles fallen from the trees. A happy Christmas to all window viewers!
Nov. 10, 2009: The trees have a lot of changing yet to do and we'll be cleaning up leaves, here in the southeastern US, for another month at least.
October 17, 2009. Though it may not look like it there are several changes in this scene from a month ago. A new roommate for the houseowner across the street, who also has a new truck seen in the driveway. And do you hear the sounds of crying? It's a new baby next door. If you could see a thermometer it would tell you how unseasonably cold our weather has turned! (and rainy.)


View out my front door, Sept. 15, 2009.


(I join in a Finnish bloggers' group who have created a "12 kuvaa, 12 pics" project which involves photographing the same spot from the same perspective each month over the course of one year.)
