There were a ton of fire hydrants at Pack Forest. This is one of about four I photographed on Monday.

Just a rusty hire hydrant near my apartment. I like the contrast in colours.

Italian Greyhounds are much shorter than the average fire hydrant.

Close to where I-88 and winfield cross in Warrenville, there are a number of fire hydrants sporting this... whatever it is. At first (as it was before halloween) I though perhaps this is the equivalent of a ghost costume for a fire hydrant. Now it is long past Halloween and they are still there. I called the fire department - then the city, and the county. No one seemed to know what is going on. So - I'll put forth the following totally made up story... These fire hydrants sporting these red "bed sheet" costumes are hiding their fragile egos as they spew hate and advocate violence against non-red fire hydrants. You'd think in 2016 we would have moved beyond this - but evidently we haven't.

my manager told me like if i we were talking about something and his i was to uhhh if you wanna copyright something you write it on a piece of paper and mail it to yourself and then don't open it

After 2 more days of being shut-in by the weather, I took a walk around my apartment complex, today, in sunshine! Yes, it is, still, cold & blustery & the roadside is under 2 feet of snow. Yes, we are expecting another storm in 2 days, but, for today--Tuesday, February 10, 2015 in Troy, New York, USA, it was rather lovely! Our maintenance guys did a great job, clearing the fire hydrants. I see that this one has its own icicle! One of five photos.

Spent 90% of the day training to facilitate NAMI family support groups. It was more exhausting than I expected. Sitting still for that amount of time is very tedious. When it was done, I took myself for a walk around the neighborhood. I needed it. And I beat the rain.
