i see that i signed this with the wrong month. That's what happens with dementia, LOL. Made this last night; "Growth Thru Tears", while working through grief process for loss of more communication abilities. -- Blue on brush for peaceful acceptance
, and green for growth THRU that acceptance. … and of course the ever-present, unseen presence of spiritual support.

Taken thru the window. The fox sprung from under one of our pine trees hoping to catch a dove off guard. All it succeeded in doing was alerting all the birds to take cover. It eventually gave up and moved on.
Happy New Year, Flickr friends! : )

For Halloween this year, I asked my hairdresser to make me look like a star....someone famous in movies or TV.
He asked me who I had in mind.
I told him I'd leave that up to him.
I wish I'd known how fond he was of Marge Simpson.
Thank you all for bearing with me thru this annual fit that comes over me, and for your views and comments. You are patient.....you are wonderful.
Our former on premise office manager wasn't very encouraging of kids being out and about even tho it's a cul de sac with wide expanses of lawn and no thru traffic.
So there's hardly been any trick or treaters on Halloween.....last year I got none.
We have a new manager and she sent out a notice that if we wanted to hand out candy, come to the office and pick up a sign for our door that welcomed them. The hours would be 2-8 pm.
It lets everyone know it's allowed and whose door to knock on.
I'm hoping I get a little parade tonight, tho the weather isn't so good.
But I'm really pleased to see the change of attitude.
Happy Halloween, everyone.
Looking at his life in those days from the outside, in retrospect, we might say Gerard, though posted to many places, did not have a very eventful life. However, his poetic experimentations were the events and experiences of his life, wrung from him at times of high emotion—ecstasy, tragedy, devotion—wrestled from his wordsmith’s stock-in-trade, written into his relationship with Christ. Gerard’s theology shaped the framework, and his aesthetic sensibility provided the form. The result was his true self, spelled out on the page.

Europe, The Netherlands, Zuid Holland, Rotterdam Zuid, Wilhelminapier, Rijnhavenbrug, Strandway (uncut)
There’s something ominous about this scene. As if the big BosKalis trailing suction hopper dredger (TSHD) ‘Strandway' is ramming thru the Rijnhaven bridge (2012 Quist Wintermans Architecten).
But there actually is some ominousness at play here. Not in the context of the bridge, but in that of the good old Rijnhaven (1895) itself. The Strandway’ is entering it for its..............redevelopment. Of course, this is Rotterdam ;-)
Some background: This harbour was created in 1895 to offer shelter for Rhine vessels (rijnaken), when during the winter these vessels could not operate due to the freezing of the rivers.
After the creation of the Rijnhaven (Rhine harbour), the transit freight traffic to Rotterdam continued to increase and the new Rijnhaven was made suitable for large sea-going vessels by deepening it. As planned, the Rijnhaven became an important port for the transhipment of bulk goods 'on stream' - the sea-going vessels were moored on buoys, separate from the quay and their cargo was moved directly to rhine ships. In de 70/80s of the last century, the Rijnhaven lost its transhipment function and was brought back to its old function. In 2015, the rhine ship berths were moved to, among others, the Maashaven. Enabling the redevelopment of the old harbour.
It will be partly (30%) filled up to enable the realization of amongst others an office/apartment building strip with up to 200m high edifices, called the 'Skyline Posthumalaan' with an adjacent park and city beach. And there will be the floating Rijnhavenpark too here.
In the BG is a sliver of HNY (former HAL head office), Mecanoo’s Montevideo (2005) and Foster’s World Port Centre (2000).
