Mural by Gary Simmons aka @garysimmonsstudio for his exhibition, "Gary Simmons: Public Enemy," at the Museum of Contemporary Art in Chicago, Illinois.
The MCA states "Since the late 1980s Simmons has played a key role in situating questions of race, class, and gender identity at the center of contemporary art discourse. Notable for his early application of conceptual artistic strategies, Simmons exposes and analyzes histories of racism inscribed in US visual culture. Over the course of his career, Simmons has revealed traces of these histories in the fields of sports, cinema, literature, music, and architecture and urbanism, while drawing heavily on popular genres such as hip-hop, horror, and science fiction. Guided by an internal logic, his approach is cool, analytical, and unflinching in its interrogation of intense historical narratives, yet the results consistently deliver a strong emotional charge."

As Friday afternoon, June 3, 2016 progressed, the Union Pacific tank cars continued to flare up and explode as a result of the 16 tank car derailment at Mosier, Oregon.
Because of frequent sustained high winds, this section of the Columbia Gorge is a mecca for wind sports like windsurfing and kite boarding.
Imagine an exploding tank car with the common 30+ mile per hour winds blowing through The Gorge. We dodged a bullet. I wonder how often we can.
This photograph was shot from WA 14, the detour route around the disaster as I-84 was closed for 10 hours.
As of Sunday, Kelly House reporting for OregonLive has said that firefighters on site at Mosier are "still working to investigate the source of an oil sheen that has surfaced on the Columbia River."
I wonder what it could be.
Reported on OregonLive on Wednesday, June 8:
"A total of 16 cars on the 96-car train derailed Friday shortly after noon near the Columbia River Gorge town of 430. Four cars caught fire and the same number leaked 42,000 gallons of Bakken crude from North Dakota. "
According to Wikipedia, Typha (aka bulrush) are often among the first wetland plants to colonize areas of newly exposed wet mud.
Typha are frequently eaten by wetland mammals such as muskrats, which may also use them to construct feeding platforms and dens. Birds use the seed hairs as nest lining.
Was taking sales pictures of this wig because I don't think it suits Hamilton well.
(It's the Rrabbit wig he wore a while back) But damn, why does he looks so cute in it?!?
Now I can't sell it ;w;

It's difficult to find wildflowers in late summer, but during one of my last walks in the woods, I found this star-shaped thistles releasing seeds while still keeping their yellow colour. The species is Carlina hispanica.
Since then, it has rained quite a bit and I think some autumn flowers may already be blooming. I need them if I want to finish this project, there are only 3 months left, and they aren't exactly known for flower abundance in the Northern Hemisphere. But I think it's still possible.

Say hello to Tacocat, MagicalEnchilada, and HairyPotatoCat! These are all wonderfully crazy characters from the most backed Kickstarter campaign ever, a card game called Exploding Kittens. It honestly looks super fun, and if you haven't already, you should order a copy or two.
This is my attempt at unlocking some 'achievements', to hopefully help hit the last stretch goal!
This is such a simple shot, but the conditions haven't been there to capture this for months! Finally lucked out last night. I was playing in the front yard with the boys when I noticed some clouds finally appearing in the sky near sunset. Excused myself for a few minutes to grab this shot. There's something to be said for living 7 minutes from the beach...
