Trip

October 2010
Lots of sunlight early and late, made photographing a joy.

Back from a trip. Brought the camera and took lots of photos- (see Facebook, too). Passed some quirky things; "Sore Loser Tattoo" , "Alive Again Taxidermy", "Prestige Laundry & Snack Bar" & my favorite, while driving at night-- among huge mountain passes, pitch black, the yellow diamond sign, "Watch for Rocks". Yikes! We did not stay here:

Though we did visit this rock shop: Large ostrich eggs, with the promise of an omelet recipe.



There were no rocks or cafe-- just the sign.









This was the entrance to a cattle ranch:

Wonderful folk art

Though dinosaurs may have roamed the long ago this was the only one I spotted: It was busy eating a manikin and no relation to this cowboy: Who sadly had a hole where his crotch should be.

Which reminds me of the many rest stops en route-


I was sad to return to chaos and stress - the building saga, problems galore. Though I learned my collages are part of a two person exhibit at the Birger Sandzen Gallery in KS!

Will it ever be easy, complete, sane? Still glad to get away and see some beauty, as ever, it is there waiting, resonant, willing, and calm.

Until later.
