Chipmunks are always on the alert, because they have several natural predators. (Hopefully, the covid19 virus is not one of them.) At this precarious time, I'm taking a lesson from the chipmunks and trying to be extra alert. Not only to keep social distance and to practice good hygiene. I also want to be watchful for close to home pleasures such as today's sunny, blue sky and a chance to feed this little friend peanuts from my hand. During this difficult time, Flickr has been a comforting place to safely meet and communicate with friends. I wish you all a happy, safe, healthy April!
With heartfelt and genuine thanks for your kind visit. Have a beautiful day, be well, keep your eyes open, appreciate the beauty surrounding you, enjoy creating, stay safe, and laugh often! ❤️❤️❤️
Beautiful and sweet Dewey, For Susy's Mike.
I could not have done this without Julia Kay's Portrait party and Tim Clark's workshops. Just saying.
Wrigley Field has served as the home ballpark of the Chicago Cubs since 1916. Nicknamed the Friendly Confines, it the oldest National League ballpark and the second oldest active major league ballpark, and the only remaining Federal League park. Wrigley Field also served as the home of the Chicago Bears of the National Football League (NFL) from 1921-1970, the Chicago Tigers of the American Professional Football Association (APFA) in 1920, and the Chicago Sting of the North American Soccer League (NASL) from 1977-1979.
Located in the residential neighborhood of Lakeview, Wrigley Field sits on an irregular block bounded by Clark and Addison Streets and Waveland and Sheffield Avenues. The area surrounding the ballpark, typically referred to as Wrigleyville, contains bars and restaurants and is dotted with the Wrigley Rooftops--flat rooftops of the apartment buildings across Waveland and Sheffield, which actually pre-date the ballpark, and are now effectively part of the park's seating area.
Wrigley Field was built in 1914, as Weegham Park, for the Federal League baseball team, the Chicago Chifeds (later the Whales). Owner Charles A. Weeghman hired Zachary Taylor Davis, architect of Comiskey Park, to build a new ballpark on the grounds of the the former Chicago Lutheran Theological Seminary for Bill Weegham. Built at a cost of $250,000, the single grandstand park had a seating capacity of 14,000. Two years later when the Federal League folded, Weegham purchased the Cubs from the Taft family of Cincinnati and movd the club to his two-year old ballpark. Renamed Cubs Park in 1920 after the Wrigley family purchased the team, the ballpark was finally renamed Wrigley Field in 1927 in honor of family patriarch and chewing gum magnate, William Wrigley Jr. A second deck was added to the grandstand that year, as well.
The original scoreboard, which is largely still in tact, was constructed along with the bleachers in 1937. In September 1937, Bill Veeck strung bittersweet from the top of the brick outfield wall, and planted the original Boston ivy vines at the base. The famous marquee, at the corner of Clark an Addison, was added to the ballpark in the 1930s and was originally green porcelain. It was painted bright red in 1960. Wrigley Field was the last American ballpark to install lights, with the first night game taking place in 1988.
Wrigley Field was designated a landmark by the Chicago Department of Planning and Development on February 11, 2004.
In 2007, Wrigley Field was ranked #31 on the AIA 150 America's Favorite Architecture list.

"Be alert!"

Wildlife has to be alert and always listening. Danger could be around the corner.
The deer knew I was there, but in a way, he trusted my presence. He was used to people feeding him corn.
Are you alert? Our enemy, Satan, is luring around seeking to devour us.
“Be alert and of sober mind. Your enemy the devil prowls around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour.” 1 Peter 5:8

A road sign during the COVID-19 pandemic in the UK.
When a 'lockdown' was introduced by the Government on 23 March to slow the spread of the coronavirus, the original message to the public was to "Stay at home". However, with a slight easing of restrictions announced on 10 May that allowed greater freedom to travel, the message was changed to "Be alert".
"A hidden connection is stronger than an obvious one.”
The connecting grills safe guards the interiors/ house.
Similarly if we consciously connect with our inner selves regularly / continuously, it would safeguard us from all the evil thoughts, vices and bad habits.....and would help us being a better being.....and convert us to be the best divine instrument....best divine offering. :)
Lets be connected to the inner self...lets be connected to the divine...and lets be connected to God..
Not as fancy as those new ballparks, and I kind of like it like that.

For the annual Antigonight festival, art takes over the town once the Sun goes down. This year, part of that included some imporant messages spelled out on the walls along Main Street.
