Like the shot? Fav it!

Silent and untouchable she stands, just out of reach with one hand extended invitingly, yet avoiding eye contact. What is it about her that draws us in? I don't know.

Sometimes you have those days where you just can't seem to pull yourself up, where your motivation is missing, life feels empty and it's like you can't find that sweet spot where life is moving forward and it's good...today is one of those days. But in looking at this picture I am reminded that even though I may be down and life feels somewhat empty, the truth is there is still beauty to be found…there is life, even when it feels out of reach.
This bittersweet vine was hanging across a trail we were walking on the weekend, so I snapped a quick shot. When I look at it I see simple beauty, something so small that would have been missed if it hadn't been in my path…otherwise lost among the many trees in the forest…still there, still that simple beauty but unseen. It reminds me of life, who knows if you will be that moment of simple beauty that intersects someone's path…whether it be a kind smile, an acknowledgement, a gentle touch, a kind word…anything that breaths life into another. We never know what those simple, yet beautiful acts do in the lives of those we cross paths with.

Not got much to say today, the horrific event in Connecticut kinda puts life in perspective. Appreciate and be thankful for the things you have, simple or otherwise. Can't even begin to imagine what life feels like for anyone involved.
Why do we need to fake everything all the time? Genuineness is really scarce these days, isn't it? A simple life might just be a silly dream of some mad but authentic minds, I suggest.

This simple cake was made to celebrate my sister's graduation from nursing school. Her pug ate the fondant decor, minus the syringe...
White citrus-vanilla butter cake filled with raspberry jam, whole raspberries and fresh whipped cream, and iced with zesty lemon buttercream. YUM!
This was my first real try of a simple landscape shot. Picture was taken at Grindelwald First in Switzerland.
'Tis the gift to be simple, 'tis the gift to be free
'Tis the gift to come down where we ought to be,
And when we find ourselves in the place just right,
'Twill be in the valley of love and delight.
When true simplicity is gained,
To bow and to bend we shan't be ashamed,
To turn, turn will be our delight,
Till by turning, turning we come 'round right.
The Ottumwa Municipal band and Community Chorus gave a concert in Central Park Thursday evening. The group is Iowa's oldest continuously operating municipal band - founded in 1865 and celebrating its 150th anniversary this year.
It's not an easy task to keep a small town band going these days, even in the state where Professor Harold Hill extolled the virtues of bandsmanship. Judging from the average age of the audience, it will be even more difficult to sustain in the future. A shame, I think. People don't know what they are missing if they can't appreciate the simple joy of music in the park on a summer night.
I couldn't imagine a nicer place to be on the eve of the country's birthday this year. Central Park is a little old shaded, sloping pocket of green on the edge of downtown. Above it, on its northern edge, looms the 1894 sandstone, Romanesque Revival Wapello County Courthouse and the 1930 Gothic Revival St. Mary's Catholic Church. Hugging the park on either side is Ottumwa's 1901 Neo-Classical Carnegie Public Library and the 1912 Renaissance Revival Federal Building (now City Hall).
Below the park sits the grand old 1917 Hotel Ottumwa, still welcoming overnight guests. Walk on down to the next alley and you can be transported back to the 1930s with Ottumwa's own "tavern style" "loose meat" sandwich at The Canteen. Then you'll come to the Burlington tracks, with the depot a block or so to the west. Beyond that, ever present, and oh, so old, the Des Moines River rushes by carrying some of the rain that fell on Iowa farmland on its way to the Gulf. (There's a lot to carry this year, we've had plenty of rain. Flooding soon!!)
Well, I guess you can tell . . . I love this place! : )
Thursday was a beautiful blue-sky evening, perfect temps in the 70's - just gorgeous! The band played the usual patriotic themes, and they played Simple Gifts, and an Irving Berlin medley . . . but they also played Elvis! Ain't that America? ;-)
I am so cheered by an old fashioned band concert. But I was lucky enough to be part of a fabulous, proud and mighty instrumental music program in my Texas high school and the effects of that have never faded. Maybe it's time to get the clarinet repadded and see if I can still play! : ) Heck, it's only been 37 years . . . maybe it's like riding a bicycle??
As that sweet music floated out into the night, we heard Amtrak blowing, the California Zephyr coming and going. Ahh, another sweet, sweet sound. I looked at my son, smiled and said, "Is this heaven?" And he said, "No, it's Iowa."
Well, for a little while there, I could have sworn it was Heaven. : )
Happy Birthday, America!

Test knit for Mary-Heather. It's a simple, cozy, wear-it-every-single-day kind of shawl.
[raveled]
The yarn is a fantastic hand-dyed sock yarn called One Sheep Hill that was available exclusively at Yarnzilla's shop a few years ago. I had 4 skeins and gave two away because I am a stupid. :P
Western style breakfast in Japan is not my thing, obviously it was someone else’s idea to fly to Japan so we can have western food. Their stuff isn’t so bad, and I do love all food that is delicious, but travelling all the way to Japan, and then, well, you know what I’m saying. XD
It is hard not to bump into one of Skylark Group’s chain stores. After all, there are almost a thousand of ガスト café restaurants around town and there are around three thousand restaurants under Skylark domestically and overseas. I suppose that is one of the reasons why they just hired McDonald’s former president Ralph Alvarez as their chairman. Pretty sure he knows how to run a large corp like this one with his experiences from previous training. Me, I like to keep it simple, stupid! In another words, I like to KISS. V^O^V
I had a lot of the 73587 Mini Antenna laying around, so now I think it was time to use some of them. And I think it turned out great.
For Flickr Friday's theme, "Keep It Simple," I decided to use my Russian Zorki 4 rangefinder camera as the subject. This camera is very simple, all of the controls are on the top (apart from the lens controls and the self timer, which are on the front of the camera). No buttons or LCD screen on the back, and there's no place to put batteries. Needless to say, this camera does not even have any type of metering. Now that's simple!
Lighting was also kept simple. The Zorki was taken on the carpet of my living room, with the sunlight peeking through the curtained window as its light source. This gave me the contrast needed to accentuate the top of the camera, its controls, and its simplicity, while keeping the rest of the camera in a moderate shadow.
