Friday Foto Friends

Time to visit Deb at Breathing In Grace. . .

Last week I was challenged by our sweet friend Sylvia at 
to share one black and white foto on facebook everyday for a week.  To make things a little more interesting the picture couldn't be one of people or pets.

All of my pictures were taken here in my little town on the bay.  If we're facebook friends you've probably already seen them, I hope you enjoy them again.
Taken at one of our many parks.

Our new fire station, maybe four years old, but still new to me..  This picture was taken by my daughter, Tammy, from her office window.

Freshly painted water tower.

Small boats in the Houston Ship Channel, they have to move when the big ships come through.

One of the boat docks at Sylvan Beach.  

One of our city streets that dead ends at the bay.

Black and white pictures are fun, but I'm really glad we now live in a world of color!

  7. Wonderful pictures! I especially like the bench in the park.
    That's a big fire station!
    It's so nice to share living by a bay with you! All the towns along the bay and the ocean here have those water towers.:)
    Have a lovely weekend Mary.

  10. Yes, black and white photos are fun. I wonder if I have the option on my little camera? Must ask my son ( who gave the camera to me).
