Sundae Monday

It was Monday; we were returning home from a pedicure and, true to form, we were drawn in by an invisible force field surrounding Culvers which was along the way. Ice cream, pecans, hot fudge, caramel; yum! It was a perfect Turtle Sundae Monday. #sundae #monday #icecream #culver’s

Shots in Anger?

I saw this vehicle with a bullet hole in its tailgate and couldn’t help wondering how it got there. Perhaps it was an accident by someone who didn’t know how to properly use a firearm. Or worse, could it have been done by someone who didn’t know when not to use a weapon? Either way,Continue reading “Shots in Anger?”

Substance and Shadow

The sun finally came out today just as it was about to go down. The rain had stopped, drops glistened on leaves and limbs in the yard, and sunbeams spotlighted the ukulele, casting its shadow upon the door. A moment of magic frozen in time. #ukulele #rain #sunset #sunbeam #shadow

Clouds and Keys

We had been told to remain seated and keep our seatbelts fastened as we neared our Florida destination nearly three weeks ago.

Such is life on a the wandering waters of the Mississippi and similarContinue reading “From Here to Where?”

Sirius-ly Morning Musk

Bright clouds in a dark sky revealed the twisted trail of Elon Musk’s SpaceX Polaris Dawn launch which carried an all-civilian crew into space yesterday morning. They will be orbiting more than three times higher above the earth than the International Space Station to test systems for extended space travel and will perform the firstContinue reading “Sirius-ly Morning Musk”

Breadbasket

Flying over the central U.S. drove home the reality of this part of the country; this is where our food comes from. The crazy-quilt pattern of fields and pastures brings back memories of my youth on a farm in Nebraska. Life was challenging at times, but being so close to the land with our ownContinue reading “Breadbasket”

Happy Monday

Yes, this photo has been used before in one of my posts last year, but not in this context. I awoke giggling to myself with the vision of this creation in my mind; I literally dreamed it up. To me it is humor, not a slur, and a tribute to the inner crab in allContinue reading “Happy Monday”
