This is a photo of the bumper of the car in front of me in the Starbucks drive-through this afternoon. It's quite a collection of Leftist and druggie sentiment. This is the first time I have ever seen someone admit to being a drug-user. I wonder what kind of people she associates with? Probably not …

I will freely admit that our yard isn't quite as enticing (or as large) as Terri's is for birds, due to our many squirrels. We have one seed-feeder that's squirrel-proof, and two suet feeders. One suet feeder that would be easy for squirrels to get at, is always filled with hot-pepper suet, which the birds …

I do like to keep my eyes open and search for little things around me that delight the eye. How about the humble, useful paper clip? Who gives them more than a moment's consideration, mainly when you run out? I did, last week at work. I had lined up some paper clips on my desk, …

I have been living in my house for nearly 22 years. This house is one of the first ones built in our complex of 85 townhomes. Only in the last couple of years have I noticed that the trees planted in front are palm trees. What? Palm trees in a northern-hemisphere place? Weird. They seem …
Terri's Wordless Wednesday topic of High #Flight inspired me to go back 12 years, to General Aviation Day at our local Paine Field in 2010. They had a variety of old airplanes on the ground, and in the air. The day was what a photographer would describe as "cloudy bright", which is great for taking …
My submission for Cee's Daily Flower Challenge is a beautiful dogwood tree I found last night, when Hubby and I were waiting to get into one of our favorite restaurants. This big dogwood tree was at the edge of the parking lot. The flowers are quite large. Here's the Link to Cee's May 18 post.
Today's theme is aroma, and pictures that lead you to remember the #aroma of something. So, I will start with an aroma that is one of my very favorites: the salt tang of the sea. Since salt water is never more than a few miles away from our home in Everett, Washington, we are …

Working in a factory gives me access to industrial and mechanical items all day long, and ever since I started there in July of 2021, I have marveled at the beauty of the items manufactured, and even the scrap material. Every so often, I need to stop by the tool room to pick up some …

It's not about "public health" anymore, it's about Control of The Population. This story and graph appeared in the Mill Creek View, a free newspaper. The two definitely tell exactly opposite stories. Which would you believe? The story tells you that the local public health "authorities" recommend that the always-obedient people resume mask wearing indoors …
Cee's Black and White Challenge this week is Flowers. Just recently I took one of the photos of my Valentine's bouquet roses and made it black-and-white (see the color in the header photo on my blog). I just love the detail that comes out in the black-and-white version. I went out in the back yard …
