Collision Course
Maybe you didn’t know that I got my start as a photographer when I spent a decade shooting roadside crosses. I tried to stop at as many as I could and then, one day, I was done. I still notice them but rarely stop. This one, though, caught my attention the other morning.

PS: The only place the roadside cross work currently exists is on this old blog.
The day winter arrived
This is usually how our weather works – it’ll be the end of October and still hot. Like need-an-air-conditioner hot. And then the weather forecast says in four or five days we’ll have six or seven inches of snow. Six or seven INCHES!! It is very exciting. But as the days between now and the forecasted snow dwindle, so does the anticipated snow accumulation. And then, at last, the snow day arrives. Only there’s ice instead of snow.
And then, two or three days later, it’s once again so warm that it’s hard to believe the ice storm really happened.
