This week is flying by! 😉
A spray can of Garnet Red paint was on my doorstep after work tonight. Now let’s see if I can remove the mirror from the windsheild without breaking either one. At least two of the half dozen threads I read on Miata.net mentioned breaking the windsheild. 😯
…and probably for only a little while, I am making good on this threat.
Well, I’ve gone and done it again. Last year after taking this photo I told myself I would get a nicer picture this year. Trouble is that after the blooms disappear I can’t tell a Bradford pear tree from any other tree, so figuring out a photo spot way in advance can’t be done. This year when the trees started blooming I kept my eye out as I drove for a row of them with a nice enough background. Never saw one I really liked, so I never did take a new picture. The Bradfords are all starting to go green now and wouldn’t you know it, I think I stumbled on a place that fits the bill. Note to self: for blooming Bradford pear trees picture, try entrance road to Aiken Regional Medical Center.
Knew that I would make it if I tried.
Then when we retire, we can write the Gospels,
So they’ll still talk about us when we’ve died.
Yesterday evening Donna wanted a nap, so I queued up the DVD of Jesus Christ Superstar and kept the sound down low. I really like this movie. I’m not sure if it just that I’m a child of the early 70’s and that is the style of music of my youth or is it because I saw a Broadway production of the play on a high school field trip and had great time in NYC, in spite of being left behind. Or maybe it is because we get the whole Jesus fable neatly wrapped up in an hour and 45 minutes.
Today on TCM I stumbled on the last 40 minutes of King of Kings and stayed. It was pretty fun to compare this 1961 “serious” take to the more irreverent JCSS telling of the same story.
Try not to get worried, try not to turn on to
Problems that upset you, oh.
Looking southwest at the corner of Mr. Fletcher’s Ride and an unnamed path about 1/2 mile in from our usual entry point into Hitchcock Woods. Outside the woods, spring is in it’s early stages, but inside it is just starting. The dogwood outside my window at home is is in full bloom, while the one that the passed on this morning’s walk was just starting to flower. I picked this corner in the fall when it was colorful, but there isn’t any thing that will flower heralding spring, so I need to find a different spot that will be more colorful at this time of year for my next yearlong photo essay.
This post was to be brought to you by the letter Q, but fearing legal action from Nissan, it will instead be brought to you by…oh heck, I can’t think of a letter that hasn’t been used as a car line designation. Can You?
1) The picture book of our DC trip I ordered last Friday from MyPublisher arrived today. Never going to buy a photo album again.
2) I must sure love the way I look because I was busy peppering this place with my photo in various forms, favicon, ASCII art and gravatar.
3) Must love that car too, as there are 3 new photos of it in here this week.
4) Posted my first picture in a new weekly photo meme, Lens Day Wednesday. One of the photo blogs I visited actually had a listing of photo memes for every day of the week. Yikes. Think I’ll stick to 3 for now.
