Plants growing in the desert along a stream through Ash Meadows Wildlife Refuge. This was taken along the Crystal Boardwalk.
The Emerald Ash Borer is decimating the trees of the Upper Midwest. You can look up pretty much anywhere there are trees in Michigan, and see this. In some places it's much worse, where there were ash monocultures (or near-monocultures).
For absolute ultimate in hardwearing floors think about ash flooring. This flooring is light and refreshing, often found in modern, contemporary interiors.

Ash Gourd also called as winter melon or white gourd, is a kind of melon used as vegetable when ripen. This plant is like a creeper which spread across the ground and the flower is starting point of the vegetable growth cycle. This vegetable develops waxy coating on its body.
The Ash Brokerage building, perhaps the most dramatic addition to the Fort Wayne skyline since the 1970s, is nearly complete. Shot May 11, 2016, using a Blade Chroma Camera Drone.
photographing ash trees in case they get diseased. This one looks a bit tattered - hope it's the sea wind, not disease.
Ash live at Shepherds Bush Empire. Was fun seeing them again, the crowd were mental, same old ash fans I remember 10 years ago. Lots of oldies were played, that was ace ^_^
Today the colors changed. Yesterday the colors were green. Or maybe white. I can't remember. As a photographer I love it when the liturgical color is white. I makes it so easy to balance the color in the pictures taken in this sanctuary. And it is a difficult sanctuary to shoot photographs. You'll notice the cross has a blue cloth on it. Not really. It's violet, the liturgical color for Lent, but with two different colored light sources, I can only correct one set of vestments to the correct color. Well that is not entrely true, I'll have to do it with another program and I'm not going to do it tonight.
But I digress. The color changed to violet today. Change. We begin the 40 days of Lent. The time when Christians prepare themselves for the death and resueurrection of Christ. Color change. Change is afoot. And now I have 40 days (a few more than that actually because you don't count Sundays.) Typically Christians are asked to give up something for Lent. Chocolate is a favorite. Sweets. Beer. Wine. Alcohol. Someting they love and cherish. But I find that a negative approach.
I decided tonight I'd rather change with the colors and do something positive. Get more sleep, Eat more vegetables. Get more exercise. But that sounds too much like a New Year's resolution. So I'm undecided. But I think it will have to do with symbols.
Tonight they rubbed ash on my forehead in the sign of the cross. "Ashes to ashes." The ashes are from the burned palm fronds of last year's Palm Sunday. I have to check that out. Not sure what it means. Ashes are however, a good symbol. And I can wear them tonight with two thoughts. First, I don't have to fully understand the symbol for it to have some meaning. And second, wearing the ashes on the forehead is a statement of connection to a community larger than just me. The waitress at dinner recognized the latter, asking if we had been to Immaculate Conception tonight, the downtown Catholic church.
We replied "No." and then went on to explain we were Baptist. And we were part of this season called Lent.

The Most Rev. Joseph R. Cistone, Bishop of Saginaw, celebrated Ash Wednesday Mass at the Cathedral of Mary of the Assumption in Saginaw on Feb. 18. To mark the beginning of the penitential season of Lent, Catholics receive ashes on their foreheads as a sign of repentance and mortality. The ashes come from blessed palms that were distributed last year on Palm Sunday and later burned.
The Church emphasizes the penitential nature of Lent and Catholics who are between the ages of 18 and 59 are called to fast on Ash Wednesday and Good Friday, meaning they should eat only one full meal and two smaller meals without eating between meals. Also, all who are 14 and older are called to abstain from eating beef, pork, poultry and food made from animal fat on those days and all Fridays during Lent.
Ash Cave... despite the rain, headed out for a hike today. Bingley was a little wet, orange(the sand here is orange) dog after this, but it was worth it.

Ash swept from the kiln at the ceramic roof tile factory. They're in negotiations with the local government to install a natural gas line so they don't have to burn wood to fire their kiln.

Ash with his green eyes, they suit him much better!!
Photos were taken in my rather overgrown garden.

This Victorian front porch should be on the cover of Southern Living magazine. It is almost too perfect to be real!
Ash is a two year old Siberian Husky mix. He might even be a purebred, but he never came in with any papers. His fur is way too short and not thick enough for a Husky, so I'm thinking that he might be mixed with a Shepherd somewhere in his distant past. There's another picture of Ash here.
This picture always makes me so happy when I look at it. He just looks super goofy. He's super elegant though and a real beauty... If I was on my own right now, I'd totally adopt him because he's super sweet. The only problem, which would probably be fairly easy to break with a lot of attention, is his aggressiveness with other dogs. He's neutered, but he tries to dominate every dog he sees, even puppies. And look at those eyes... One is blue, the other is brown. I love Husky eyes!
If you'd like to adopt Ash, go to www.lovemyspca.com. Ash has been adopted! Ash came back after being adopted once, so he needs to be adopted again! Ash has been adopted again (and hopefully, this time, it's for good!)
