I haven't heard anything about Scooby Doo since I was a teenager, but what I do recall is the lanky hunched character he was depicted as. If I recall correctly he was a bit of a coward and an amateur sleuth.
This chap seen out for a walk with his partner at sunset on Rockaway Beach instantly reminded me of him.
I recall using a pay phone but not outside the police station.
I mainly recall using a pay phone in the parking lot of a shopping mall on the edge of Ottawa on nights when the commute home was going to be late. My commute was about an hour through the countryside and, on a good day, fifteen minutes through the city. The fifteen minute part could be an hour or more at times so a quick pull out of traffic to the pay phone at the mall to say I would be late. All before cell phones.
The centerpiece of his Brooklyn Museum show,titled “The opposite of the pedestal is the grave,”is a sculptural assemblage of a ladder,chicken wire,mop,and bedskirt whose sashaying shape recalls the moment a model spins around on the runway—or more broadly,embodies the less permanent instant when we nail a look.
A random photo I came across in my Lightroom catalog earlier that I thought ought to see the light of day. This was from Druidston Haven, December 2016. I recall there was an excellent cloud, but it didn't compose well as a wide shot so I used it to bounce some warm light into this more intimate scene.

The Woodlawn House, abandoned for over 40 years. County Galway, Ireland. Boarded up using the interior doors. Tragic.An old man recalled that in the final days of multi-generational ownership and with the estate well in decline, he was employed as a 'butler's boy". His job was to retrieve the morning newspaper from town (1.5 miles round trip) and then press the sheets with an iron before giving it to the master of the house. A bit like Downton Abbey as written by Charles Dickens.

I still recall the wondrous moment:
When you appeared before my sight
As though a brief and fleeting omen,
Pure phantom in enchanting light.
In sorrow, when I felt unwell,
Caught in the bustle, in a daze,
I fell under your voice’s spell
And dreamt the features of your face.
Years passed and gales had dispelled
My former hopes, and in those days,
I lost your voice’s sacred spell,
The holy features of your face.
Detained in darkness, isolation,
My days began to drag in strife.
Without faith and inspiration,
Without tears, and love and life.
My soul attained its waking moment:
You re-appeared before my sight,
As though a brief and fleeting omen,
Pure phantom in enchanting light.
And now, my heart, with fascination,
Beats rapidly and finds revived
Devout faith and inspiration,
And tender tears and love and life.
By Aleksandr Pushkin.
I recall when we first met, I felt two worlds collide
You somehow stole my breath, it felt so cold inside
Thanks for all your comments and favs!
A huge thank you to Dustin Abbott www.flickr.com/photos/thousandwordimages/ for the inspiration!
Recalling days of sadness, memories haunt me. Recalling days of happiness, I haunt my memories.

something from archive - post a similar weeks ago - but i like this one too :)
I seem to recall there weren’t many IC liveried 47s around by this time - Two side by side at Birmingham International as 47854 passes 47805 on Sunday 4th February 2001.
#74 passes the local #382 on its way to Butte from Great Falls. The Union Pacific power is returning from Canada off the rock train. Don't recall ever seeing the empty phosphate cars returned on this train or any other.
Skyline was too short for many meets and eventually ended up unused.

December 2021. The fear of the pandemic was pervasive and international travel carried the risk of involuntary quarantine. It was in those uncertain times that a trip to Ecuador came as a soothing balm to travel-deprived birders. We now recall those heady days in the neotropics. Tandayapa.
Though these gas pumps are no longer in use, they provide a great glimpse back into a time many of us remember, when things seemed a lot simpler.
I can still recall the first time I saw a pump your own gas station in Michigan! They had yet to hit Florida, and I was amazed that people were allowed to fill their own tanks! Now it's hard to find a station where you DON'T.
Tintin had forgotten what had happened to Snowy, luckily Professor Calculus recalled that Snowy had gone back for his delicious bone. During capture of this image Tintin fell over but I quite liked the movement blur when I processed the image.
I've always wondered about mental illness in the pioneer days. They were as susceptible to it as anyone today. Why do we hear so little about it?
While it certainly existed, it was simply not written about in any large way.
I'm currently reading Caroline Fraser's Prairie Fires: The American Dreams of Laura Ingalls Wilder. Fraser pieces together the fragments Wilder left out, including some pretty horrible situations.
While recalling an incident, the author mentioned the affliction being called "shack-wacky," though I think that term comes from the 1930s. It's possible there just wasn't a name for it. Maybe "silly" (meaning "insane" at the time).
Fraser also mentions Hamlin Garland, another author who I need to read. She calls him a "chronicler of prairie depression."
Though we (might) look back on the pioneer days as a full-time episode of Little House on the Prairie, Hamlin apparently tells a much different story.
The dedication to his first book read: "To my father and mother, whose half-century pilgrimage on the main traveled road of life has brought them only toil and deprivation, this book of stories is dedicated by a son to whom every day brings a deepening sense of his parents' silent heroism".
Granted, it's fiction, but there's not much else out there. I've (thus far) found only one 10-page paper about mental illness of the pioneers, written in 1985.
I'm definitely missing something, but I suppose I'll start with Mr. Garland.

I seem to recall this rare Subaru being pictured before in a different location. I was cycling past so took a couple of snaps, its looked abandoned with a slighlty deflated tyre but it still has an MOT.
Thanks to everyone for visits , comments , awards and invitations, I appreciate your feedback very much
Since today is #tbt here is one from my beginner years that my brother asked about last night. I found it in a data card and reprocessed it to order a metal print for him. I still love this shot and recall the morning I took it, as I was the only one at the lake and had the area to myself. What a gift. #ThrowbackThursday
