365 Project - Week Seventeen

I have to say I'm pretty happy with my pictures for this week.  I got some pictures I have been wanting to get from the very beginning of this project.  I wanted the fountain across from Bass Concert Hall and I wanted the frog mural.  I got them both in the same week!  I'm so happy!!!  And I got some knit graffiti!  Woo hoo! 

Okay, time to enjoy week seventeen!

Day 113
My mom and I went to see Jersey Boys at Bass Concert Hall in Austin on Saturday.  The show was great!  This fountain is across the street.  I love fountains.  I was so happy that it was actually running when we were there this time.

Day 114
this painting is on the side of a bridge on Barton Springs Road in Austin.  I walked over there after church ended on Sunday and took a quick picture.  There is another one on the other side of the street so I will have to go over there and take a picture of that one another day.

Day 115
Katja from Maedchenmitherz sent me these lovely buttons!  This made my day!  I love them so much!  I can't wait to wear them.  :-)

Day 116
Tuesday was one of those days where I had to improvise a picture.  I wasn't feeling well and it was supposed to rain so I had to rush to get a picture when I got off work.  I saw my hummingbird but wasn't quite fast enough so I took this picture instead.  I think it's actually kind of pretty.

Day 117
I'm so happy about this picture!!!  I finally got a picture of the frog mural by Daniel Johnston!  I was at a back to school event at UT on Wednesday for work and as I was walking on Guadalupe I remembered the mural.  I walked to where I thought it was but it wasn't there so I asked someone (like a big nerd) and they told me it was just a couple more blocks down the road!  I was so happy to get this picture!!  This is one of the pictures I had in mind when I decided I was going to do this project.  Mission Accomplished!  :-)

Day 118
I went to the Knitta, Please meeting at Domy Books in Austin on Thursday.  This is one of Magda Sayeg's beautiful knit graffiti pieces outside the store.  Isn't it awesome??  I was such a star struck nerd when I talked to her.  Oh well.  She was very sweet and I was so happy to meet her.  :-)

Day 119
I took a picture of this pretty little angel in the flower bed outside my parents' house.  I thought it looked really pretty sitting in among the plants.  I just took a picture of the first pretty thing I saw.  I didn't really put a lot of thought into the picture.  It's been a long week.  I think it came out very nice.  :-)

That's week seventeen!  I'm excited to see what I find to take pictures of next week!
