Adventures From the Archives
These adventures from my archives take me on a bitter-sweet trip down memory lane and capture a glimpse of the excitement and ambition of shared moments and memories. I revived these old photos after revisiting camera archives during quarantine and a lengthy surgery recovery over this past year, and in an effort to keep these memories alive and get back into my creative element, I gave Flickr a try. So, as a new member, I thought I might as start off with a variety of work (with recent edits) to express my various interests and experiences as I start this creative journey. Enjoy!

If you knew how lonely my life has been
And how long I've been so alone
And if you knew how I wanted someone to come along
And change my life the way you've done
It feels like home to me, it feels like home to me
It feels like I'm all the way back where I come from
It feels like home to me, it feels like home to me
It feels like I'm all the way back where I belong
A window breaks, down a long, dark street
And a siren wails in the night
But I'm alright, 'cause I have you here with me
And I can almost see, through the dark there is light
Well, if you knew how much this moment means to me
And how long I've waited for your touch
And if you knew how happy you are making me
I never thought that I'd love anyone so much
It feels like home to me, it feels like home to me
It feels like I'm all the way the back where I come from
It feels like home to me, it feels like home to me
It feels like I'm all the way back where I belong
It feels like I'm all the way back where I belong

Baileyville, Maine
Boy, did I have a time trying to figure out both the actual name of this motel, and where we were when I photographed it!
At the time, I took a picture of the front sign so I would know the motel's name. Good enough, right? Nope! Even though I have a photograph of the sign indicating this was "Bass's Motel", I could find nothing on the internet about it. Nada. I ended up pinpointing where a previous photo was taken, then brought up google streetview and went along US 1 until I FINALLY found this motel, which gave me the name of the town. One problem solved. Clicking on a date in google streetview several years ago, a view popped up with a motel sign that read "Boidi Motel". Aha! I googled that, and up popped some (old) information. That doesn't help me know what the motel is called right now of course, but I know it was Boidi and then became Bass's. Maybe not for very long lol

She'd take the world off my shoulders
If it was ever hard to move
She'd turn the rain to a rainbow
When I was living in the blue
Why then, if she's so perfect
Do I still wish that it was you?
Perfect don't mean that it's workin'
So what can I do?
When you're out of sight
In my mind
'Cause sometimes I look in her eyes
And that's where I find a glimpse of us
And I try to fall for her touch
But I'm thinkin' of the way it was
Said I'm fine and said I moved on
I'm only here passing time in her arms
Hopin' I'll find a glimpse of us
Tell me he savors your glory
Does he laugh the way I did?
Is this a part of your story?
One that I had never lived
Maybe one day, you'll feel lonely
And in his eyes, you'll get a glimpse
Maybe you'll start slippin' slowly and find me again
When you're out of sight
In my mind
'Cause sometimes I look in her eyes
And that's where I find a glimpse of us
And I try to fall for her touch
But I'm thinkin' of the way it was
Said I'm fine and said I moved on
I'm only here passing time in her arms
Hopin' I'll find a glimpse of us
Ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh
'Cause sometimes I look in her eyes
And that's where I find a glimpse of us
And I try to fall for her touch
But I'm thinkin' of the way it was
Said I'm fine and said I moved on
I'm only here passing time in her arms
Hopin' I'll find a glimpse of us
and in the beginning
they were man made
creations of fear
to be used
as implements of terror
not for peace
not for love
but for control
and in the end
when they have died
when they are forgotten
when they are only myth
only legend
only then
will they be free.
Thanks for visiting!

"Two of us riding nowhere
Spending someone's
Hard earned pay
You and me Sunday driving
Not arriving
On our way back home
We're on our way home
We're on our way home
We're going home
Two of us sending postcards
Writing letters
On my wall
You and me burning matches
Lifting latches
On our way back home
We're on our way home
We're on our way home
We're going home
You and I have memories
Longer than the road that stretches out ahead
Two of us wearing raincoats
Standing solo
In the sun
You and me chasing paper
Getting nowhere
On our way back home
We're on our way home
We're on our way home
We're going home
You and I have memories
Longer than the road that stretches out ahead
Two of us wearing raincoats
Standing solo
In the sun
You and me chasing paper
Getting nowhere
On our way back home
We're on our way home
We're on our way home
We're going home
We're going home
Better believe it."
Just got around to processing this image from a trip taken in September. Image was taken at Lake Pinaroo which is located in the Sturt National Park near Tibooburra in the north-west corner of NSW, Australia. I went on an 8 day photographic shoot with another photographer and travelled 5,000km and had 13 shoots.
Image processed in PS CC. Brendan is a amateur photographer based in Sydney Australia who loves exploring and shooting sea and landscapes in different areas sometimes with good mates other times by himself to improve his skills.
I SWEAR I did not see this face when I took this picture of a cotton boll earlier today when I was on an adventure with Kay. Only when I downloaded this did I see what appears to be another alien face. Considering the last photo I posted looked like one too, maybe they really are among us....since I have now seen two does that mean I am????? Check out Kay's photostream for another "alien". www.flickr.com/photos/1stlady/1348581902/in/photostream/
Pittsburgh has an area of 58.3 square miles (151 km2), of which 55.6 square miles (144 km2) is land and 2.8 square miles (7.3 km2) (or 4.75%) is water. The 80th meridian west passes directly through the city's downtown. The city is on the Allegheny Plateau, within the ecoregion of the Western Allegheny Plateau The Downtown area (also known as the Golden Triangle) sits where the Allegheny River flowing from the northeast and Monongahela River from the southeast form the Ohio River. The convergence is at Point State Park and is referred to as "the Point." The city extends east to include the Oakland and Shadyside sections, which are home to the University of Pittsburgh, Carnegie Mellon University, Chatham University, Carnegie Museum and Library, and many other educational, medical, and cultural institutions. The southern, western, and northern areas of the city are primarily residential. Many Pittsburgh neighborhoods are steeply sloped with two-lane roads. More than a quarter of neighborhood names make reference to "hills," "heights," or similar features. The steps of Pittsburgh comprise some 712 sets of outdoor public stairways with 44,645 treads and 24,090 vertical feet. They include hundreds of streets composed entirely of stairs, and many other steep streets with stairs for sidewalks. Many provide vistas of the Pittsburgh area while attracting hikers and fitness walkers.
