Photo-A-Day 2013: Week 29

I was lucky enough to spend time in nine states during the week of July 15-21 — California, Minnesota, Wisconsin, Massachusetts, New Hampshire and Maine plus Texas, Illinois and Pennsylvania on flight layovers. The best images of the week definitely come from the Midwest and New England. Let’s take a look! (Remember, to see any image at full size, just click on it.)

Photo-a-Day 2013: Week 3

If you’re following along, you already know about my “Photo of the Day” project on the blog. Along with my Lyric of the Day (#LOTD2013) project on Twitter, I’m keeping my senses of sight and sound active every day.

Here are the images from the third full week of 2013:
