Rushed out this morning for the 6:42 sunrise and this is my favorite so far! Contrasts, the ferry and the schooner and the small boats trailing… I worked yesterday so today I get to be at the Wooden Boat Festival! I have duties there today and tomorrow…. come on down.
Another photograph of the Seneca Mill by the quarry along the C&O Canal. The plants are slowly taking back over.
Two days ago I went on a bike ride near the C & O Canal and we walked to this old stone cutting mill. Rocks were cut at the Seneca Quarry and and down the canal, which ends in Georgetown, and used for many buildings and monuments. Seneca Red Sandstone is used for the Smithsonian Castle. Beautiful.
This is for photrablogger’s Mundane Monday #75. He has sand and this is sandstone.
This is TJ. I am not certain what TJ stands for so I’ve been making things up: Tyrannosaurus Journeyrat. Tickle Joy. Twice Jumper. Tangle Jouster. TJ is good with tangles.
On my trip I got to meet Amal, who got tired out and had to rest. He has a place behind the desk on the windowsill where he likes to have a contemplative time out.
I hiked with my aunt Pat in Covington, Virginia yesterday. The foliage is so different from the West Coast and I am enjoying the cicadas….
Another early morning photograph walking around my neighborhood: the bees were humming with joy in this lavender.
This is for photrablogger’s Mundane Monday Challenge #74. I took this on an early morning walk at home and let the zoom and the clouds set the frame…
The Wooden Boat Festival is three weeks from now…. I took this at the 2007 festival, wonderful wind for the sail by and all sorts of boats out on the water. I am looking forward to it again this year….
My sister and another writer posted essays under the title Choosing Love here: http://everything2.com/title/Choosing+Love. My sister’s was written in 2002. I posted mine there last November.
Choosing Love
I choose love
I have no enemies
I hold you close in my heart
and hug you close if I can
and if you hurt me over and over
I can still love you
I choose love
I have no enemies
I hold you close in my heart
from far far extremely far away
I choose love
I have no enemies
I hold you close in my heart
I hug you from a safe distance
I choose love
I have no enemies
I hold you close in my heart
even if I will not allow contact again
I choose love
The photograph was on the beach. The gull and the crow were interacting. After I watched for a while it was clear that the gull was following the crow and trying to take things from the crow. They were not friends.
