When life gives you lemons.

So this week I want to talk about how to make the most out of things when they happen.

A couple of weeks back, My Wife and I took a bit of a road trip to Mount Airy North Carolina. I wasn’t really planning on taking many photographs as this wasn’t a business trip. We were going to see someone really close to us that we hadn’t seen in a long while. When we showed up the universe had other plans though.

After meeting up and having a great lunch at a place called speedy chef. We were told that the festival was going on. At first I was a bit disappointed with all the food trucks being there. I had planned on just getting some shots of the location for stock photography and to spend time with my Wife and the special people we went to see.

After arriving at the main street where everything was, We had a great time. Now for those who do not know. This place is modeled after Mayberry from the Andy Griffith Show. So of course we seen all the stuff from the show. We had both been there a couple of times before. But the trucks actually made it enjoyable as well. All of the different food choices we had were pretty cool. Some of the shops stayed open a little longer as well.

The purpose of the trip wasn’t to take photographs at all but when in Rome right? I was able to get a couple of frames from the trip. Although that wasn’t the reason we went. I also didn’t spend a lot of time with the camera in front of my face either. Sometimes you just have to take a step back and enjoy the moment. Now I will show you what I captured.
