Fish on Green Wall

FYI, the green textured wall is painted wallpaper, and the shark is taken from Frank Zappa's "Yellow Shark" CD.

Brrrrr

Hey remember back on July 10th, when I posted a 109 degree day?



And it's still a week and a half from the first day of Winter!

Raw Rural Kansas Shot

Last weekend we attended a memorial service for my sister-in-law's father in Moran, Kansas. It was actually our second trip to Kansas that week (we had gone up to Wichita to see "Avenue Q" on the previous Wednesday), and we are headed up again (well, to Kansas City, MO, anyway) this weekend to visit with Caryn's folks.

This grain storage site against the cold-but-sunny-blue Kansas sky caught my eye.

Lots of lights

With the rapidly decreasing cost of LED Christmas lights, the "enrobing" of facades of buildings in colored and white lights is becoming much more popular.

All of these buildings are within about 3 blocks of each other near downtown Oklahoma City.

USS Oklahoma Anchor

This being the anniversary of the attack on Pearl Harbor, it seemed fitting to post this -- one of the 3 anchors retrieved from the wreckage of the USS Oklahoma, which was sunk by 5 torpedos in that battle.

And, yes, this is my first post in many a moon. Sorry about that - I've got pics for the next few days at least, and if I can just get back into the habit, we'll be celebrating the 1000th post before too much longer.
