baskets of plenty
roadside beauty
a wee bit of purple
red and gold
limbs frame the last leaves
evening comes earlier
the setting sun kisses the tree tops goodnight

Objects In The Mirror ...
... should back the hell off
I despise tailgaters
I despise tailgaters
Don't stand, don't stand so
Don't stand so close to me
Don't stand, don't stand so
Don't stand so close to me
thanks to The Police

"You Find Me Daddy"
My son was playing with Hope before he left for work and she told him that she wanted to play "hide and find me" and that he should be the one that "counts 1-2-3" and she would hide.
So Daddy obliged by calling the lamp post base and began to count ...
And Hope chose her hiding place ...
Priceless

Twisted Flags
What do you get when you go to the Jersey shore right before Hurricane Irene arrives?
Flags being punished by the wind.
I was trying to see how dark the distant clouds were by hanging out of my car window upside down. I saw the flags instead.

Junk and Treasure Live Together
There is a shop in a town near me that carries an eclectic array of stuff.
He call himself a Junkologist but I've seen some treasures in there. Can't miss the shop, just look for the big red round thing.

At The Fair
The volunteer firefighters have a fair every summer. It was too hot for it to be open during the day but I did get a few shots.

Play Ball
The Scarlet Knights is the name of the sports teams of Rutgers University here in NJ. I adore the women's basketball team and noticed this while waiting in the drive-thru line. It seemed timely what with all the talk of women's soccer.

Sit a Spell
I love this porch. Although the houses on this street are all attached and the entire area is crowded, these folks have created a sanctuary on their front porch.

The Wall
We don't need no education
We dont need no thought control
No dark sarcasm in the classroom
Teachers leave them kids alone
Hey! Teachers! Leave them kids alone!
All in all it's just another brick in the wall.
All in all you're just another brick in the wall.

Somewhere in the Brush
This mish-mosh of trees and shrubs and wild grass and weeds sits beside the highway near a creek ...
I pulled over to the shoulder because I noticed a wee splash of color ...

Waiting for Winter
A little front garden near my aunt's home in Brooklyn has a skier statue hiding in the spring foliage ...

Where Will We Put The Bikes?
I have been spending a lot more time back in my old neighborhood in Brooklyn, NY. My aunt still lives there - around the corner from where I grew up and not more that half a mile from any of the places I lived as an adult before buying the NJ house.
To say Brooklyn is more crowded now than when I was a child would be an understatement. I have noticed how much more "squished" everything seems just in the 8 years since I left.
Porches spring up wherever a few feet of space can be found. Many are built over garages or put there when single family homes are converted into two family homes to accommodate grown children returning or tenants - thank you crappy economy.
As I searched and searched for a place to park (an Olympic feat in Brooklyn) on a recent visit I noticed this porch/storage area ...
