Elaine was over from Canada on business and we just had to meet up after keeping in contact by email for so long. So she made use of the Adam and Eve dressing service and then we hit the town. Elaine you were great company and I hope we meet up again soon.

After picking up lunch at Keenan Yard, the special pulls out of the yard and into the first sun of the day.

Somewhere out there

Beneath the pale moonlight

Someone's thinking of me

And loving me tonight

Somewhere out there

Someone's saying a prayer

That we'll find one another

In that big somewhere out there

And even though I know how very far apart we are

It helps to think we might be wishing

On the same bright star

And when the night wind starts to sing a lonesome lullaby

It helps to think we're sleeping

Underneath the same big sky

Somewhere out there

If love can see us through

Then we'll be together

Somewhere out there

Out where dreams come true

"My vision? That's right. My vision. I still see. Even in the dark, I still see. Do you want to know what I see, Raul? It's the same thing I saw in Texas when I was a boy. The thing I've always seen. I saw myself. Alone. Standing in open country. Flat, barren. Wasted. As far as the eyes could take in. Enormous country. Primitive. Screaming with hostility toward men. Toward us. Toward me. As though men didn't belong there. As though men were a joke in the face of it. I heard rattlesnakes laughing. Coyotes. Cactus stabbing the blue air. Miles of heat and wind and red rock where nothing grew but the sand. And far off, invisible little men were huddled against it in cities. In tiny towns. In organizations. Protected. I saw the whole world of men as pathetic. Sad, demented little morons moving in circles. Always in the same circles. Always away from the truth. Getting smaller and smaller until they finally disappeared."

--from Sam Shepard's "Seduced"

Finally have the suspect in custody. He confessed after playing the tape where his helpers ratted him out. I was trying to hold out and keep the secret but i blasted him with the tape and he song like a canary. Case solved. Now im out on this sail boat in the middle of Italy vacationing. Much needed "me time." I wanted to look chic and cool. Comfortable yet not overly dress. The weather is superb, the ocean scents just takes me to a whole new place of comfort. Im sooo relaxed right now. My tour guide decided to take me to a remote place where you see all kinds of ocean life and i am captivated.

Ladies if you havent hit up the Slay Room Monthly Event, make sure you do and stop by the Petroff booth, you will likey !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! As always ladies, happy shopping ☺

This particular photo is awesome because it’s exactly what I wanted, and because after the fact I noticed the one and only CJ Smith taking photographs of what seems to be the Trump Tower. This is the walkway between the Wrigley Buildings.

went out again did a little food shopping this time. I know dull but it needed doing!

this seems to be my safe outfit for doing these things but it does mean I get out more.

This is a brown pelican on the Marina in Corpus Christi, TX. They came very few about 40 years ago and begin to reproduce once again and they are proflic anywhere there is fresh seafood.. This one is so tame, you want to touch him... but, check out the end of the beak ..you will change your mind.. They are really beautiful and are everywhere you go around docks .Different markings too. His feathers are rather soft for such a large bird and his markings are not always just the same. I hope you enjoy this close up.. I wish I had blurred the boats in the background but, did not. Since it was taken years ago, I did take it to an app and clean up some things .. Some I changed and then erased.. So enjoy I uploaded this again today. I have been taking photos since I was six... so I can take and appreciate any kind of comments on my work.. ( there was a long period between beginning and when they began to be in art shows,, etc.) I still have my original camera.. in good shape.. a Brownie Relex...

For my money, the most interesting bus fleet in the whole of Portugal was that of Joao Carlos Soares of Guimaraes. My first introduction to it's delights was seeing (and hearing) a gleaming rear engined AEC bellowing though a sleepy Porto one Sunday morning. The vehicle concerned was of the same style as their No.66 in this photo and was bedecked with the firm's then trademark white walled tyres. From that moment I vowed to track the company down ... even if they had only the one. When I finally did so, I thought I'd died and gone to heaven when it turned out that about 50% of the large fleet was AEC of varying ages and with little by way of standardisation!

Eventually I got to know the company well which resulted in a couple of 'business' trips supplying spare parts in a bid to keep the old girls operational. Sadly, nothing's forever and with the take-over of the business by Arriva, the days for AECs were numbered. JCS had modernised some of their fleet with Scanias, preferring them to the ever popular Volvo marque. There had, as in several Portugese fleets been some re-engining of buses, they had a Leyland 'Royal Tiger' (modern generation) with a Scania D11 engine, A Volvo with an AEC 691 and here, their only AEC with a Volvo engine.

One evening Mandy dons a shift before we go out. I asked why she was wearing maternity clothing. We were going to enjoy dancing tonight. This led to an impromptu photoshoot in the guest bedroom which has become legendary.

Finally had a chance to get out again. Not a great hair and makeup night, but I got to be me again!

Went out the other evening to shoot some hay bales in a local field I’d seen whilst on the way to work. There’s a path behind the field so no need to go into the field itself! Sun was setting out to the left from where I set up and light was looking promising but just as it was getting to where it would’ve been ideal a large cloud rolled across the sun and the horizon killing the light. Still it makes for a good mono composition thanks to the textures on the stubble left in the field afterwards. Telegraph poles were nicely placed to frame things.

We stopped at a little park north of Viera;

The Scrub Jays found us before we found them. As soon as they figured out we had nothing for them they flew off and watched us from a distance.
