Milford Sound, New Zealand after sunset. Fast exposure shot, I will upload slower exposures and variations of this same theme in the coming weeks, I hope it won't be boring to view them.
My first root canal experience will be tomorrow, I found out today that I have a dead nerve in one tooth, the past few nights have been sleepless with a throbbing toothache.
Lyrics to Fools In Love :
(by Joe Jackson)
Fools in love, well are there any other kinds of lovers?
Fools in love, is there any other kind of pain?
Everything you do, everywhere you go now
Everything you touch, everything you feel
Everything you see, everything you know now
Everything you do, you do it for your baby
Love your baby, lobe your baby
Love your baby, love...
Fools in love, are there any creatures more pathetic?
Fools in love, never knowing when they've lost the game
Everything you do, everywhere you go now
Everything you touch, everything you feel
Everything you see, everything you know now
Everything you do, you do it for your baby
Love your baby, love your baby
Love your baby, love...
Fools in love they think they're heroes
'Cause they get to feel no pain
I say fools in love are zeros
I should know, I should know
Because this fool's in love again
Fools in love, gently hold each others hands forever
Fools in love, gently tear each other limb from limb
Everything you do, everywhere you go now
Everything you touch, everything you feel
Everything you do, even your rock 'n' roll now
Nothing mean a thing except you and your baby
Love your baby, love your baby
Love your baby, love...
Fools in love they think they're heroes
'Cause they get to feel no pain
I say fools in love are zeros
I should know, I should know
Because this fool's in love again

But I prefer the Inara George cover.
I am starting off my Month of Pink the way I start off every day.
Taking one of these little Pink pills.
One of the downfalls of getting old.
These control my Blood Pressure.
I really hate taking drugs, but as the Dr. said, I don’t have to take them but I also might die.
Not really a choice.
So here we go starting off the Month of PINK.
When I thought of the color for this month I was wondering how long before someone posts a shot of some female with a pair of those shorts that say PINK across the butt.
Maybe with only three guys in the group it won’t happen at all. LOL
I might have to take a trip to the mall.
loading the washer I caught the edge of the agitator top, not for the first time. I think it's the bifocals. #gettingoldsucks
so happy that I decided to switch doctors. After getting 3 cortisone shots in 10 months time....I know that's not good...I remembered a doctor's office whom I went to for my running injuries. The doctor I had seen for my left foot "injury" was no longer there, so I asked for another doctor who runs (marathons). Loved the guy, Dr. Lee...he said I should not have to stop running; my injuries should be treatable with physical therapy and the shots, too many in a short span, only masks the problem. He told me to see Justin, and only Justin. Today, I had my first official physical therapy session and with his evaluation, he discovered the culprit is my ankle! With my ankle wrapped, shockingly I have no pain at all on my foot. (I never had any pain to the ankle). I am to order an ankle brace and he said I could go out and start/try to run again while we work on getting my ankle stronger. The plan is to strengthen my right ankle so that I wouldn't need to wear the brace in the future. I 🙏 that things get back to normal where I'm not in excruciating pain when I stand up from getting out of bed in the morning or after sitting at my desk at work. @joys4macs I might be able to do a race with you after all...maybe....

shot thru the windshield of the TA.
no one around, driving the backroads through the fields, just before dawn.
theres definitely something hiding back there in those trees....
a house?
a shack?
an electrical shed for the power lines?
+ cell phone photo silliness in comments from my sleep deprivation last weekend :)
My dear aunt Dorothy and my dog, Sputnik in the winter of 1958, with DeSoto in background. Aunt Dorothy passed away in 1972, my dog was killed by a farmer in North Missouri (1963) who complained that Sput was chasing his cattle.
According to Uncle Jim, the farmer was later attacked by a pack of small,wild dogs while setting traps for Bobcats and had his trigger finger bitten off.
There's a new group, PICTORIAL ESSAYS ABOUT AGE, a public group for posting photos, art and essays or comments about age, especially the art of old age. While there are those, like myself, who will say that "...getting old sucks", others will play with words and try to fool themselves and others about the joy of growing old.
WHAT WAS IT THAT ROBERT FROST SAID ABOUT AGE?
WHY NOT JOIN THE GROUP NOW...

My father went in today for a knee replacement - 77 years young and finally decided to live the next 22 years with a new knee. What the heck! He was really stressed - strange to see as he was a surgeon and an anesthesiologist for his lifetime. It was interesting to watch him interact with the staff. I took this in his room after he came out of recovery -- there was no where to sit, so I had to stand.
I never used to have adverse reactions to raw onions, but as I'm getting older, they're giving me heartburn! The other month, my parents tried to kill me by putting an ENTIRE SLICE OF A WHITE ONION in my sandwich!
The next time I halve a recipe, remind me to halve the amount of onions too.. My noodle salad was so good, I had to finish it all.. ten minutes later I could feel the onion fumes coming out of my eyes!
