Foto Friday Challenge: Red

I saw beautiful red items all over the place this week, but I rarely had my camera with me.  So, I ended up just taking pictures of things that were around the house.  You can also check out the red Indian ruins from when we were in the Grand Canyon. For more Foto Friday Challenge, head over to Renaissance.
