dance party

  

How much fun were these dancers having?

They were having all the fun possible to have.

My traveling companion: Look! There’s some kind of a carcass down there!”

Me (as I execute a pair of u-turns): Can we get down to it?

***

Anyway, as you can see, we DID get down to it. And made photos, of course.

It was an elk skeleton. Unless it was a pterodactyl. There’s no way to tell: we’re not paleontologists or whatever. (My spouse, who is also not a paleontologist*, was kind enough to explain all the ways this WASN’T a pterodactyl…)

*He’s a Pilates instructor, which is very similar to being a paleontologist because both fields involve bones. Or something.

At one of the shrines at the sacred place, I saw a pair of tiny socks hanging with a rosary, a cord bracelet, a safety pin, and a medallion that says “Italy.” And sorrow – there seems to be a lot of sorrow there, too.

bound for the infinite

 

This is one of my favorite cemeteries to photograph, and I’ve never even been inside; it’s locked all the time. There’s a path all the around the outside and the wall’s almost always low enough to see/photograph the graves.

Or if you are really lucky, you can get the wall, the graves, the mountains, and a fast-approaching thunderstorm all in one shot. (And then, if you hurry, you can get back to your car to wait out that rain.)

flag day

Maybe you’re wondering if I am *still* showing Pride photos.

Yes. Yes, I am.

And there are still more on the way.
