Over the last year Saturday has always been a music day on my blog, but I must need a vacation from myself because this week I found myself running out of inspiration for photos and songs.

The Week In Seven Photos
It’s July and summer and one would think this week would have been about being outdoors, but nope, it was about football, baseball, shopping, reading and hats.
