Musings

Composition, bae-bee

Something about the pallets and the diamonds of light made this for me. And the pipe. And the scrolls in the chair backs. Plus the shade of blue of the wall and the horizontals of the bricks. Also, the messiness of the detritus on the painted concrete below. There ya go.

Fruity

Nothing quite looks like a rambutan…with those aesthetic spinterns in a variety of greenish and rosy hues.

Eye on the thermometer

With a cold snap on its way, I sought flowers during my walk in the bright sunshine today. It’s 22°F colder now than when I walked. No lie.

[Headline? What headline?]

Solid rain most of the day made hours and hours of mellifluous white noise.

Window bright

Sometimes stained glass can function as a filter, and make already beautiful light even more gorgeous. [Do I use the word gorgeous too often?]

It’s about timing?

The word history traces back to the Greek, where its meaning required investigation/inquiry and research; it wasn’t merely story telling. History also has a context (social, cultural, temporal, etc.), and, sometimes, good luck figuring that out.

Apologies for the two-day delay in posting….

Arrow keys, and more

It was so very pleasant outside this afternoon that I took El_Laptop outside and felt the sun on my face as I typed and browsed and watched the leaves fall.

File under: it had to happen

Speaking of tools, 🤣, we fired up the furnace yesterday to stave off the brrrrrrr. In truth, we’ve rolled into the winter side of autumn, after an unseasonably warm summer side of autumn.

Whew

We received our first rain with a chance of soaking in since Helene. Yay. It began last night and into the morning, and then the afternoon was merely overcast and damp.

Mem-ree lane (meaning beach)

One month ago I found this beauty on the beach. It’s prettier than the leaves we raked today, so I decided to reach back for a pretty. You can imagine the leaves (none of them from maple trees).
