We ate it. If truth be told since carnival season began on January 6, we ate three. Three king cakes. During a normal Mardi Gras year we’d eat way more than that, but they’d be consumed at the brunch that we would have had yesterday. The subject of this picture is what’s left after eatingContinue reading “Happy Mardi Gras”

Common Thread
All you need to know is in the headline. I had an interesting day. It occurred to me just how common the threads that bind us together really are. We all seem to forget that. There has been an ongoing and emotional discussion in one of the photographers groups to which I belong. In manyContinue reading “Common Thread”
Wind and a Tree
More experimental than not. That’s this photograph. It’s about wind, which arrived in about 30 mph gusts. Even the all seeing spaniel wanted very little to do with it. We walked for a while and after watching her ears fly around I thought it was better to head home. That’s what we did. We wentContinue reading “Wind and a Tree”
The Season
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”
Come Down In Time
Come down in time. That’s what Elton John sang back in 1971, when my life began. Or, something like that. There are moments that truly amaze me. I had one of those today. I received a letter that said my checks could no longer be sent to me because they didn’t have my address. Okay.Continue reading “Come Down In Time”
Spooky
The time of year. Spooky. Ghostly. A good time of year when things aren’t what they seem. This is another short post. We have power, but no internet. Our gear is new and works fine. It turns out that our internet provider took some heavy hits. They are working to repair the damage but whoContinue reading “Spooky”
Blue Hunter Moon
I’m still posting from my phone because there is no power yet. Bigger streets have power, but not us. Not yet. So this will be short. I’m sitting in one of the cars down by the river, charging multiple phones. The picture you are looking at is straight ahead. The Blue Harvest Moon. Two fullContinue reading “Blue Hunter Moon”
After The Storm
The storm ended and I remembered that it is still Halloween, not that we have the electric power to do much about it. The storm was no big deal, lasting about only two hours. But, with 100 mile per hour wind, plenty of trees and power lines were destroyed. We are not sure when weContinue reading “After The Storm”
You Never Know
It’s a funny thing. A couple people told me to stay safe during Hurricane Delta even though I said it was nowhere near us. I suppose most people don’t really understand Louisiana’s geography. New Orleans is about 300 miles east of Lake Charles, where a hurricane will hit for the third time in about twoContinue reading “You Never Know”
