Hmmm . . .
Life is so much easier if you're not too picky about the details.

Reflect On This ~
Finally restored/repurposed, the Brandeis & Teweles granary's story of survival is epic and expensive and involved actually moving across the channel for a couple of years. A battle of wills and egos. But it's back & it's beautiful.

Our Little Town ~
Much of the snow melted today, but I like this shot from a few days ago. The Canadian Manitoulin and the U.S. Edgar B. Spear, side by side, getting along fine, as have our nations until one . . .

Somebody Bet on the Bay(s) ~
In a balmy 32⁰, the icebreaking tug, Mobile Bay, returns to Sturgeon Bay after helping a few ships in & out of Green Bay. Got that? Notice her bubbling system at work, a big help in thick ice, unlike this.

Tugboat Twilight Time ~
Just a look at the scene around town tonight, as the Jimmy L. and the Donald Sarter go out to break a little ice in preparation for the homecoming of the ship Mark R. Barker, I imagine.

Sometimes I forget that the things I see every day may be, in the right light, fairly remarkable.

Nice Day For a Swim ~
'Tho the air temp was a crisp 15 F on my walk today, this patch of open water between ice floes must have been about a balmy 33. Just right for these 3 pair of Mallards to have a relaxed Sunday swim.

Winter Harvest ~
Just something to buoy your spirits with holiday color if you need it, as I do on this Tuesday Bluesday. I imagine there's someone from the dark interior regions asking, "What the hell are those things?"

Bridge to Bridge
Cropped, popped, and color sopped, but this was the view on today's walk. 22 degrees F. A west wind.

America, my country, 'tis of thee I sing the blues
Land that the Pilgrims' tried, I can hardly see you, the varied hues
of your pilgrims
to be worn without pride now
And those few native to this place
must live to see their land disgraced

Leap of Faith ~
How many hundreds -- no, thousands -- of times; on foot, bicycle, car, & truck have I made this leap through mid-air? And you? How brave we are! (Well, it IS a tiny bit unsettling to stand astride the gap.)

Of Brick, Ginko & Goldenrod ~
Yeah, I know, all the pretty leaf pictures were due a month ago, especially from places as far north as Wisconsin. But this is what I saw today, the 6th of November. And I don't do a lot of pretty pictures.

sometimes, y'know
it just doesn't seem real
the water above
the sky below
this bridge of steel
this definitive maybe
when the status ain't quo

Quayside ~
That ship of state? That ship we called "America"? That ship has sailed.
Now some who helped throw off her lines see she's never coming back.
Have a nice day.

The Fade Away ~
At my age, it's easy to relate to this old barn: We've got some stories to tell, but have mostly outlived our usefulness.

In Our Little Town ~
Paused for a few minutes on one of my regular walks to do a little sketching exercise. A little brain cell exercise. A little appreciation.

A Visitor ~
Here's the scene from late this afternoon, as Pride of Baltimore II heads out through our celebrated steel bridge for a little sunset tour. Four dandy tall vessels in town right now.

Just Now ~
Helluva storm, followed by this incredible beauty as I drove home from a friend's. And yes, there was a great rainbow behind my back, but I decided this was the better shot.
