Life In A Tiny Town

"Strange that so few come to the woods to see how the pine lives and grows and spires, lifting its evergreen arms to the light -- to see its perfect success." ~ Henry David Thoreau This very tall pine with it's straight tall trunk and whorls of smaller lateral branches reaches high above the old two...

As I Go

Just running around my neighborhood there is much to look at and enjoy this time of year. The skies were/are overcast, dark and dreary, and a fine mist is/was coming down at times. I was in the parking lot of my bank when I took this. Straight across and behind the trees is my pharmacy where I get... Sign in to see full entry.

Against The Sky

It soon will be time for me to bring my big plants back inside. It's getting colder at night now. That's kind of a drag, you know. The pots are so heavy and the plants so big, and they take up so much room inside. But, Son #1 loves anything living and he won't let me get rid of them. I tried to... Sign in to see full entry.

The Turning

"It's my turn!" "No, it's my turn!." "It's my turn to turn," called the leaves. "It's my turn. I've been waiting a long time." "It's my turn to turn. I want to be pretty." "I'm trying really hard. It's beginning at my edges." "Look at me, look at me." "I guess I'm not ready yet," whined the littlest... Sign in to see full entry.

There There

"There is no there there." ~ Gertrude Stein A return to my childhood home, not often, but now and then, always leaves me with mixed emotions. The house has been gone for eons now--it burned to the ground, so they say. Not only that, but the three houses to the south of it are also gone, and the... Sign in to see full entry.

Fun To Play

They are red again...the crabapples across the way at the edge of our yard. I tried collecting a little pail of them since they are so abundant and making jelly for the fun of it, but it is much easier to just play with my photos on Photobucket and add fake frames and highlights, and just buy my...

Memories

No, I didn't shoot this photo today. It's an old one. In fact, I haven't done much of anything today. Just trying to get my head together. It's been going off in strange directions lately. Maybe that's because I've been thinking too much of the past, of family, and memories since I've been writing... Sign in to see full entry.

Day's Ending

It was the birthday of Kansas City Sis yesterday and I spent a lot of time with her, just the two of us. There was a birthday dinner the day before that for several family members with birthdays in September, including Son #3. That one was like a big feast and we didn't need that again. Sis and I...

Buckeye Green

Where I walked today the shades of green caught my eye, each in its own tint and tone sang to me of happy birds, and scrambling squirrels intent upon their tasks and leaping on their way. The pleasing bright sunshine, sparkling between the fluffy white clouds warmed my face and gave me desire to... Sign in to see full entry.
