There comes a time when the world gets the better of you. Or, as the say “Sometimes you eat the bear. Sometimes the bear eats you. Technology completely got the better of me in the past few days. Or, most likely, incompetent people did. Everything thing that I did last week to repair the situationContinue reading “The Season”

A Long Strange Trip
Man oh man, Forty years already. Where did the time go? Better yet, why did my time go? Today is December 8. A horrible anniversary. I didn’t know until the next day so for me December 9 is just as bad. I hope by now you know what I’m talking about. If not, this isContinue reading “A Long Strange Trip”
Meaningless
All the time in the world. That’s how numbers felt early in the pandemic. It was flexible. It stopped and started on its own. Many people felt that way, especially people like me who lost both businesses in the short term. Timelessness did produce one huge thing. People got creative. People experimented. Some folks evenContinue reading “Meaningless”
Gulf Coast Fall
Gulf Coast. Fall. Florida too. This is one reason why people move down here. Mild autumn and winters. Some flowers die or hibernate. Many do not. You’ve seen these flowers earlier this year during spring. Here they are again in autumn. Apparently, they thrive in cooler weather, which a Gulf Coast summer is not.

Under A Blood Red Sky

That’s what I see, anyway. The all seeing dog likes to go outside around that time. That’s good. We see all sorts ofContinue reading “Under A Blood Red Sky”
Into The Red
All patience is gone. I’ve had nothing but technical problems here. I spoke to the minions — oh wait, I meant automattitions — at WordPress. They say that I don’t understand the block system. Really? Nobody understands the block system. The only people who really do are the coders who work for their VIP clients.Continue reading “Into The Red”
All The Luck
I had a lot written. I wrote a lot about the soon to be vaccine. I talked about picture theory. I thought I was going along pretty good. As I attempted to switch columns I accidentally hit something — I don’t know what — and the entire written piece was deleted. I know that thereContinue reading “All The Luck”
Never Had It So Good
Not my normal location. Wandering from my normal scenes lead me to find these shoes. I have no idea why they were left behind. But, they are neatly aligned as if someone was returning to get them. I don’t know what the soles look like, but it could be that she was slipping and sliding.Continue reading “Never Had It So Good”
Dog of the Hour
She just had to look at the lens. So, I made her portrait. I made three frames and off she headed. As I wrote yesterday, WordPress made me a deal I couldn’t ignore. So here I am. I would have still been here until December 18, even if I hadn’t taken the deal. The funnyContinue reading “Dog of the Hour”
