Temporary Tranquility

A typically tranquil scene with peace and quiet, until the airboat fires up and blows the quiet to pieces.

Kitty Cola

Cat-as-cat-can, or just another coke joke?

At least seven contrails cross the canvas of the sky in the light of the setting sun. Perhaps the scene could be considered ”Con Art,” in which case, might the pilots of the planes leaving the trails be considered con artists?

Seriously?

Ayo Pictographs

Yesterday’s image of the “Kong Rock” was in Aruba’s Ayo Rock Formations as are the two images above. These pictographs were carved into the stone by the native Arawak people and were thought to be of spiritual significance. Fortunately, they were preserved in a shallow cave, and the entrances are blocked by strong iron barsContinue reading “Ayo Pictographs”

Find a Tree

Even nature’s masterful camouflage designs may fail when placed in the wrong context. On the local trees this moth would have been nearly invisible; on the wall of the house it stood out like a wart on a nose.

Pool Time

At long last the pool is open again. The cold is past, the trees have dropped their littering, pollen-producing staminate flowers (AKA “tree testicles”), and the warm sun once again brightens the patio.

And Then There Were None

March 2020, we spent a week in Grand Cayman overlooking the bay at Georgetown. For the first four days, as many as seven cruise ships were anchored offshore, shuttling tourists to and from the port. The final three days, not a ship could be seen, not even on the horizon, as the island tried toContinue reading “And Then There Were None”
