Summer Memories: June Kenosha Instagram Meetup

Kenosha Lakefront June 2017 Instagram Meetup | https://www.roseclearfield.com

In the craziness of going to Europe, having a staycation with friends, and then adopting Tommy, there are a few major events from the summer that I documented but never shared. As we reached about the 2.5 month mark with Tommy, I regained the energy and focus to spend more than a few minutes at a time editing photos. (And yes, he’s now 3.5 months old. It’s still taking me a while to edit photos.) While these summer memories posts won’t be very timely, I’m still excited to share them with you.

Milwaukee has an active photography community, and a handful of local photographers and organizations host Instagram meetups throughout the year. I’ve been following several meetup accounts for a few years now and finally made it to two meetups in June, one in Kenosha (which I’m sharing today) and one in Milwaukee (which I’ll be sharing in a future post).

Flower Power Fall Floral Show at the Domes

It feels like forever ago that I published my Dome’s summer floral show post. Since we got Tommy, I don’t even know how time is supposed to feel anymore. But I did go to the summer show in mid-June and now we’re starting November (what?), so it wasn’t like it was yesterday either.

The fall floral show theme is Flower Power, which is fun.  The floral displays include fall mums, coleus, morning glory, patchouli, and False Aralia.
