On the fly
Cold weather must be on the way: the Canada geese that winter here are arriving.

War Memorial, with chairs
Some people might think stopping at all these different cemeteries would get redundant. Those people would be wrong. For example, this is the first time I’ve spotted metal folding chairs facing opposite directions in front of a war memorial.

White
West Texas is a quite a ways from the closest ocean – about 500 miles – so it is a little bit of a mystery about these oyster shells that have been pressed into the rough concrete on these graves. I see this sort of regularly in my wanderings and always wonder about the process of it all.
These markers are in fairly good condition; most of the time all the shells are broken, by our wicked summer hail or by vandals: I do not know.

Wavy glass, with gold
Of course we went to Versailles.
I was overwhelmed (not necessarily in a good way) by the place – all that gold and pretentiousness got on my nerves. But at least I was able to find some nice wavy glass to look through.

Careful Observation
Just a graffiti-enhanced street scene in Paris. Those two gentlemen next to the bicycle seem to be paying careful attention to something – I wonder what it was that they were so interested in…
