Telestrations

Played a game tonight called Telestrations which is a sketching game take off on the old "telephone" game; had a lot of fun and laughs; a keeper!

Rice on the Road

There's just some stuff in my neighborhood that I don't understand - like cabbage leaves spread out on a car hood, or a fan that sits in a carport and blows nothing to nowhere . . . and this pile of leftover rice that gets carefully dumped in the same spot by the side of the road. Is it an offering? The animals don't eat it. It just sits there, day after day, until it's run over by cars and ground into powder. Then a few days later, more rice appears.

letter recognition

My grandson was thrilled to discover this letter board at a nearby park and I was thrilled when he was able to point out various letters and say their names. A future reader in the making.

Cords

Cords looping through the work area.

Cat Scratching Post

I wish Thomas the Cat used this more often

-instead of our chairs-

Fall Funk

I've been in a Fall Funk- trying not to focus on the cold weather, rain, and upcoming time change but thinking about good things that come in the fall....Halloween, Thanksgiving, Trader Joe's pumpkin butter, Fosselman's Black Walnut ice cream....

Mystery Knob

We've never known exactly why this knob was sticking out of the wall in our bedroom. Most of the wall had to be replaced this week, but we were able to save the mystery knob.

Topiary Animals

ANOTHER wild turkey sighting in NYC!

This one was spotted yesterday as I walked down the hill to catch the subway.

I mean, come on!

Wild Turkeys in Manhattan!

Tibetan Dolls

Seen at Tibet House US in NYC

River Gate

Coming up from the rushing river. Climbing back to the rushing traffic.

The spot

One of the 3 "amigos" favorite spots...

Door to Nowhere

 

A lot of trouble to build a door to nowhere, just to keep it locked and surrounded by barbed wire.

Workstation

Ah...

the daily grind.

devil car

Saw this car all suited up and ready for Halloween.

Caged Glow

Sunset

I couldn't help it. I had to post tonight's sunset over L.A. 

(And no manipulation in photoshop or other app.)

in need of repair

Took my grandson to ride the merry-go-round at Griffith Park; he was enchanted by the horses but my heart ached for them in their sad state of much needed TLC. I tried to see them through my grandson's eyes; he only sees beauty.

restroom graffiti

Saw this "graffiti" in a public restroom and it made me smile because I happen to watch an ABC TV show titled "Castle" where the main character, Richard Castle, an author and the shows heroine, detective Kate Beckett are linked romantically; they must have a big fan out there....

Safe

I noticed this "ring of superheroes" while I was in the store.

It was good to know that they were on duty

And I was safe from harm.
