I haven't been posting because my brain is tied up in redecorating the bedroom. This duvet cover from Dwell Studio caught my eye while I was at Target the other day and started the whole process. My previous photo must have been my inspiration- probably because I was so excited it made Explore the image was stuck in my brain. I have lots to finish up and will post more photos when it's completed. :)

Post change of command
By Catrina Francis
Gold Standard Senior Staff Writer

Duty.
Honor.
Country.
Three words that are etched in stone in front of the cannons in front of the United States Army Cadet Command at Fort Knox and words that newly promoted Maj. Gen. Jeff Smith learned as a young ROTC cadet at Ohio State.
On Friday, Smith took the reins as Fort Knox’s senior commander and commander of the U.S. Cadet Command from outgoing Commander Maj. Gen. Mark McDonald.
McDonald became the first Cadet Command commander to also lead an installation upon the discontinuation ceremony U.S. Accessions Command in January.
“(On a) day like today it’s hard to leave Kentucky,” McDonald said after relinquishing command to Smith.
He also thanked the Soldiers on Brooks Field who participated in the change of command.
“Thanks for what you do today and thanks for what you do for our country every day,” McDonald said.
McDonald pointed out that Soldiers also take great pride in the installation.
“You make Fort Knox a great place to work and Soldier and call home,” he said.
McDonald also thanked his senior enlisted advisor, Command Sgt. Maj. Hershel Turner, for being his “battle buddy.”
In his stint as senior commander McDonald continued the tradition of working with the installation’s community partners. He added that he has been extremely proud of the partnership and the community for supporting its Soldiers.
He also thanked his wife Connie for her support of Soldiers and their Families.
“Connie, you always put Soldiers and their Families first,” explained McDonald. “It is well known (that) without her I would be a heap of beer-stained denim. (I’m) proud to have the opportunity and spend some time to make this place better.”
He jokingly added that Smith is tailor made for this position because of his Tennessee roots.
Lt. Gen. John Sterling, the U.S. Army Training and Doctrine Command deputy commanding general and chief of staff, said the day marked a significant event in Cadet Command.
He said it was a great honor, “because of the tremendous accomplishments of the outgoing commander. (Today’s) ceremony marks a sequence of events that lead to my retirement,” he added.
Sterling mentioned that in a few weeks he will travel to Fort Sill, Okla., pass the color to McDonald in a change of command ceremony and Maj. Gen. David Halverson, Fort Sill’s outgoing commander will replace Sterling as TRADOC’s DCG upon his retirement.
Sterling praised McDonald for his tour of service at Fort Knox. He said McDonald has been responsible for the commissioning of more than 5,000 officers.
“This is a challenging and important mission,” explained Sterling. “Mark came to this job as Cadet Command was moving from Fort Monroe, Va., (and) the mission only got more demanding as the Army grew to over 570,000 Soldiers … (the mission) was placed on Mark’s capable shoulders.
“Faced with this tough growing mission, Cadet Command has responded tremendously (and) continued to provide the Army with high-quality officers.”
Sterling noted that McDonald was also successful in placing officers in hard to fill positions within the Army. He also commended McDonald on his success with the nations JROTC programs.
“During Mark’s tenure JROTC (students) have continued to lead (schools in high) grade point averages,” he said. “The Army will reap the benefits from the officers developed under your leadership.”
Although McDonald had remarkable success as the commander of Cadet Command, Sterling said some of that can be attributed to his wife Connie.
“I want to thank the person who has allowed Mark to be successful – his wife Connie,” Sterling said. “(Connie, you) continue to provide the love and support that allows Mark to sustain. You are truly unique.”
Sterling said as Knox says goodbye to one great Soldier, the Army has provided the post with another great leader in Smith and his wife Starla.
Prior to the change of command ceremony, Smith was promoted to the rank of major general. In addition to the normal two hats worn by the senior commander, Smith will continue overseeing the U.S. Army Accessions Command Discontinuance Task Force until its inactivation is complete in September.
Smith said he was humbled to take command.
“What can be more exciting than producing new officers?” he asked the crowd. “(I) look forward to joining your ranks and (I will) work tirelessly for you.”
Smith added that he has a unique opportunity in being the commander of Fort Knox and Cadet Command.
“(It’s) an awesome responsibility, I can’t think of anything I would rather be doing,” he said.
Smith also thanked McDonald and Connie for the positive impact they had on Fort Knox.
“I intend to fulfill the things he had as senior commander and build on his successes,” Smith said.
Being at Knox is a homecoming for Smith. Born in Elizabethtown, he left Hardin County when he was four years old. His late father retired from the Army as a sergeant major and his mother graduated from Fort Knox High School.
Like his predecessor, Smith said he will continue to work with the post’s community partners.
“(I) consider the community (to be) part of Fort Knox,” he explained. “(It’s) only fitting (that) we continue to build on that relationship (so the) community feels part of the installation. Part of our responsibility is to serve both on and off the installation.”
Although Smith continues to serve as the commander of the task force, he said the discontinuation is slightly ahead of schedule.
“U.S. Army Accessions Command will be discontinued on target or on schedule,” he said. “Major functions (have) been transferred to (the Human Resources Command), Army G-1 or marketing in Washington, (D.C.).”
Unlike most commanders who take command of an installation, Smith has a slight advantage because he has been working on post for a few months and he’s had an opportunity to work and meet the people on Fort Knox.
“Another aspect in my role is (I) had the opportunity to learn about the U.S. Recruiting Command and Cadet Command and how they do business,” he said. “(It’s) been beneficial for me personally getting to know (the) local community.”
As Smith takes the lead of Cadet Command and walks through its doors he will remember the words he learned as a young cadet.
Duty- obedience and disciplined performance despite difficulty or danger. Duty requires self-responsibility.
Honor – encompassing integrity and dedication. Honor is the thread that holds together the fabric of our Army.
Country- for the men and women who have given their lives or country shines as the light of freedom and dignity to the world.

It's hard to imagine looking at it now, but this corner (North Avenue at Kingsbury Street) was, up until recently quite industrialized. The Milwaukee Road's Chicago & Evanston (C&E) Line went through here.
When Kingsbury Street was heavily rebuilt in the 1980s, it was done so with a single track with spurs in order to serve the remaining customers here. MILW's successors Soo and CP continued to operate here until about the late 1990s. However, according to Tom Burke, "In 2007 Chicago Terminal spotted a boxcar on the former spur to Midwest Zinc to help assert its rights to this section of the former Milwaukee Road Chicago & Evanston,"

What does the word Change mean to you? What does it reflect in you? What sort of Change do you wish you could see, in the world today? What is the smallest thing you could do to scratch the surface of that goal? Can you at least say that you have tried? A lot of people want change, but all they do is talk about it, and how great it would be without ever getting their hands dirty or taking a step!
For me, I wish I could change A LOT of things. For this picture I am trying to capture how we view others, how we treat others, and on the flip side how self-conscious/self-centered we can be and how we can treat others as though they don't exist, yet hate when someone treats us with disrespect.
Treat others with as much love and respect that you desire to receive. And BE the Change you wish to see in the world!

I changed tires of my working car, from normal to studless tire for winter.
Yesterday and today, we have snow, little bit.
Winter came on.
Jack and I are just in from a long morning out at House Paws. Jack was lucky enough to see Dr Lisa and she was everything I heard she would be, kind, gentle and informative.
Upon examination, she found Jack had a fairly bad ear infection in his right ear. Late last week, I thought he may have had something brewing in there and not realizing it would get this bad this quickly decided to wait it out knowing he would be seen today. This turned out to be a bad decision on my part. She also found his gums to be in poor condition with a nasty case of gingivitis. She was quite surprised by this as generally this condition is seen in much older dogs. (Jack is 18 months - 2 years old) I was unaware he had this health issue.
Dr Lisa and I discussed this and that; type of food he is eating, how much, energy level, etc. . . she thought he may have allergies. I brought up the fact he had suffered two seizures over the last six weeks. This apparently is a big red light danger signal and she would not give Jack the first heartworm injection. The infections, of both ear and gums, coupled with the seizures all point to a possible compromised immune system. She suspects he has an under laying condition. This may have been hidden from us as Jack was on a round of strong doxycycline when he first arrived masking these symptoms.
She drew blood and is running several tests. She also gave me a rather lengthily survey of questions about his behaviors to complete. The results will be combined and hopefully give her a better picture as to how to proceed with treatment of heartworm and any other health condition he is harboring.

then everything changed, another battle to fight
People are crazy and times are strange
I’m locked in tight, I’m out of range
I used to care, but things have changed

No one in front of me and nothing behind

Don't have much time to take pictures at the moment. I will stay in my town but in a month i share an appartement with my best girlfriend. We move into a very large accomodation and i am very excited about it. Now i have to arrange a lot of things, which means a lot of stress in the next weeks.
After i came home from work, i took my camera and tripod and went to the garden behind my apartment building. I just had a few minutes until the sun hides behind the near building. Here I used my new NIKKOR 85 mm 1:1,8D, i really like this lens.
