Old

I wonder how long ago this sign was posted. Missing all its paint and bleeding rust, it reminds me of an old man with deep wrinkles on a leathery face tanned from years of hard outdoor work.

The dark side of the moon

As I got home from work yesterday there was a sliver of a crescent moon setting in the clear, early evening sky. After an unsuccessful attempt at getting the shot while holding the camera, I got out the tripod. I was surprised to capture the dark side of the moon as well as the crescent.

Now I'll have Pink Floyd in my head all day...

Garden angel

Terri calls this "Wendie" after a good friend of hers. Sadly they've lost touch, but our garden is still watched over by this little concrete cherub.

Time

(I don't) Does anybody really know what time it is

(Care) Does anybody really care (about time)

If so I can't imagine why (Oh no, no)

We've all got time enough to cry

(From Does Anybody Really Know What Time It Is? Robert Lamm, Songwriter)

Just a coincidence that I shot this when I did.  Ever notice that all the analog watches and clocks in ads are set to 10:10? I read somewhere that time was chosen because it looks like the hands are smiling at the reader.

Indiana Dunes State Park.

Look closely and you might see Terri and Morgan on the far right, just beneath the evergreen.

Not your everyday church

I enjoy trying to find the right words to describe something.  When I walked in and saw this, I thought opulent, rich, detail, gilded, craftsmanship, but all I could manage to say was, "Wow".

Yum?

How can a restaurant with a name this enticing have an empty parking lot?

Vote

Interesting symbolism of the sunrise reflected in the window with the POLLING PLACE notice. Because, just as each new day starts with a sunrise, the future begins with our votes.

Rural skyscrapers

One of the grain elevators in Ashkum, Illinois-- a town of 724 people located about 20 miles south of Kankakee.  Ashkum, like so many other towns in the midwest, seems to have grown up around the railroad and the grain elevators that helped the farmers get their crops to market.
