Stop Smoking ...

Stop Smoking ... it is easy to stop, but hard to keep from starting

 

And sometimes there is a beauty to be found in the passing wonder of how it all goes away in the calm of the early morning 

and if we are lucky, never to be seen again 

                                       Except in the colors of the nearest flower !

 

 

Graffiti madness ??

Graffiti madness ??

 What are the chances that some artist would choose to spend the time required to paint in detail the image of a the Pacific Salmon on the steel rail next to an almost abandoned rail bridge over a meandering river on the Canadian Prairie?

Bring on Xmas...

Tis the Season

Hoar frost is the kind of winter wonder that makes it almost worth it,
when you consider that it is about as temporal as an eclipse...

When the sun comes out, all is vapor!



Then what?

Seems that when it is gone, it is "hoar-able",
       or so says Jack Frost.

Santa once said:

You don't know Jack!! Bring on Xmas...

So what is this Ford from the past?

How do they make them to last?

Can u still afford the gas ...

A free ride would be a blast, or at least poetry in motion!

Bird Bath  

Look for him he is there..

Red breast and all, one of the last Robins in the area,  taking a cool dip in a rocky stream!

Hope he is warm somewhere south,

 while we suffer the white of winter in the 'peg!

 

 

 

Great Speckled Bird

Great Speckled Bird

Buddy and 100 of his buddies arrived the day before the blizzard...

But what is it?

Never seen one before, bigger than a robin and very flighty, 

but QUIET!
