This picture of the Movable Wall was stylized using PRISMA. I like the way it looks. This app gives a different look to my photos. It looks like art doesn’t it?

Prisma – A Great Photo Filtering App
Prisma transforms your photos into artworks using the styles of famous artists: Van Gogh, Picasso, Levitan, as well as world famous ornaments and patterns.

I started using Prisma today after hearing about it and seeing others use it. Normally I don’t filter my pix, even on Instagram. This app will let me tell my story from a different perspective. It’s available for Android and that iPhone thingy.
The Moving Wall, Vietnam Memorial Comes To #Chattanooga
This weekend in downtown Chattanooga at Ross’ Landing The Moving Wall is in town. This is a 1/2 scale replica of the Vietnam Veterans Memorial that’s in Washington, DC. This features every name of those killed in action during the Vietnam war. There are over 58,000 names listed on the wall. 58,000 men and women who gave their lives for our country. People from all walks of life left their family and friends never to return. Honor those who served but always work for peace.
My father belongs the Tri-State Military Vehicle Club and they had some vintage jeeps and an ambulance for visitors to the wall to see. These vehicles are an important part of fighting a war.
The picture at the bottom represent the fallen five servicemen who were killed at a military post here in Chattanooga back in July of 2015. Honoring the service and real sacrifice of those who put on the uniform of my country is what this community does in a very special way. Thanks to all who have or are currently serving.
Happy Birthday Weekend Harry Potter #harrypotter #TheCursedChild
Sunday, July 31 is Harry Potter’s birthday. He is the greatest wizard of his time and is the inspiration to millions of all generations. I am a fan of the movies because I am not an avid reader (which I should try to do more of) and what I hear the books cover more details of Harry and friends. Potter is an iconic character that has made a positive impact on the world. Everyone should strive to be magical and to be the best wizard at what they do.
This weekend they are releasing the latest installment of the Harry Potter books, a play written by J.K. Rowling and a playwright called “Harry Potter And The Cursed Child”. It should be interesting to see what happens to Harry and crew next. Will it be made into a film, who knows?
News Break
I am taking a break from watching the news. After the past couple of weeks its a good time to do it. Sure I will keep up with entertainment and weather stories but the hard news I am just needing to avoid. When you feel passionate about something and a news story seems to be tilted in one direction or another you get riled up and it raises the blood pressure. Facebook makes it hard to do that but you just scroll by fast.
My philosophy is to be informed on the issues but sometimes they can be a little much and everyone needs a news break.
Status Update
Today has been a day of breakfast, TV, blogging, laundry and doing some tidying around the homestead. It feels good to get stuff done.
