<br />
And that's a wrap!<br />
<br />
I started this silly thing 365 days ago with a hazy College Parkway sunrise. I'm ending it a year later with a final Deep Creek sunset. I will continue to post pictures of the Cape when I have a good one to share, but I am releasing myself from the obligation of a daily entry. You will be spared the bad to mediocre forced shots, and I will be spared the 11:59 PM bolt out of bed that often came with the realization that I'd forgotten to post a Cape Photo of the Day.<br />
<br />
I hope it's been a good year for all you Capers. I certainly can't complain. Even when all else is going badly, we can be thankful to live in such a very lovely place with reliable neighbors (OK, some are reliably pains in the ass, but even that is a constant! - not mine, mind you:).<br />
<br />
If you take your own cameras out around the Cape, you'll be amazed at how easy it is to find beautiful subjects. I returned to the same ones over and over out of laziness often, but I know there are many others waiting for another photographer's lens. Some of you were nice enough to share some of yours when I was in a pinch this past year. Many thanks to my relief pitchers. It takes a village and all that...<br />
<br />
Cape Photo of the Day signing off. Peace out, Capers!<br />

My husband called me outside earlier to get a picture of a woodpecker in our yard. By the time I got out there with my camera, he had been chased off by this bluejay.

I came across this group of robins hanging out at our bus stop a few mornings ago. Despite the very cold temperatures the past few days, I know spring is on the way when the robins show up in big numbers.

So I guess Asteroid 2012 DA14 that all eyes were trained on as it passed safely by Earth was just a cosmic diversion for the celestial powers that be to smack us from the blind side. Really amazing pair of events - one anticipated and one NOT. Glad it didn't cause any more damage and injury than it did.Christyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05817194442090140362noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5614829860061302986.post-23961300538348402582013-02-14T06:00:00.000-05:002013-02-14T06:00:10.008-05:00Cape Photo of the Day - Photo #351<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

My Valentine's Day offering to my family. Big heart shaped shortbread cookie sandwiches filled with - wait for it - strawberry fruit rollups! I wanted to make these pretty cutout cookies, but my kids are not fans of the jam or preserves that are supposed to be used as filling. I was searching for something bright red and tasty that they would like when I passed by the fruit rollups at Graul's and a lightbulb went off. I used the cookie cutter to cut the fruit rollups into hearts and put them on the cookies while they were hot from the oven. Yum!!! Perfect flavor and texture. Putting that physics degree to good use...<br />
<br />
Everyone have a sweet and wonderful Valentine's Day!Christyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05817194442090140362noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5614829860061302986.post-75630582577067763862013-02-13T07:48:00.000-05:002013-02-13T07:48:56.662-05:00Cape Photo of the Day - Photo #350<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Are we still doing this? Does anybody still use a physical Yellow Pages? The plastic wrapper says, "Please recycle your outdated phone books." The word outdated is as superfluous as they come. The yellow pages go straight to my yellow recycle bin. Of course I know there are still many who rely on them, but I personally have not cracked one in years.<br />
<br />
I finally made the effort this morning to visit the opt out website that they list on the wrapper. It requires you to create an account (so they know who and where you are) and then adds the caveat that opting out of phone books might not necessarily stop delivery. I am hopeful that next year, there will be at least one less yellow package sitting at the base of my bank of mailboxes.<br />
<br />
If you too would like to stop feeling guilty for throwing your yellow pages away upon delivery, here are the websites they provide. Please take a moment to stop the waste if you also are not using yours.<br />
<br />
For recycling info (basically, they are fully recyclable):<br />
<br />
<a href="http://www.recycleyellowbook.com/">www.recycleyellowbook.com</a><br />
<br />
To attempt to opt out:<br />
<br />
<a href="http://www.yellowpagesoptout.com/">www.yellowpagesoptout.com</a><br />
<br />
And if you want a job delivering them:<br />
<br />
<a href="http://corporate.yellowbook.com/careers/distribution">corporate.yellowbook.com/careers/distribution</a><br />
<br />
If they keep coming, maybe we can figure out a way to put them to good use. A very well insulated yellow book igloo? Doorstop? Pothole filler? Gift wrap/packaging material? Fuel for fires when the power goes out?Christyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05817194442090140362noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5614829860061302986.post-8711044334173241672013-02-12T16:09:00.001-05:002013-02-12T16:09:25.240-05:00Cape Photo of the Day - Photo #349<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

The Ravens Roost. Passed by on our way to the Baltimore car show.

I blew up my Aperture photo library on my Mac, so I'm uploading directly from my phone. I was down at the end of Green Holly this evening and thought this canopy of trees was appealing where it slopes uphill.
