the clarity of light
Sometimes images will just hang around on my computer for, say, 1,228 days between when I make them and when they emerge here.
I don’t really have an explanation, or an excuse. It’s just the way it worked out.

Here come some color images. Do not be frightened. Do not worry about me. It’s just that I am getting ready to travel to a colorful locale and am trying to practice.

The Virden town square was busy, full of preparations for the upcoming Fourth of July festivities, including the Miss Virden Queen Pageant. Sadly, I was not able to stay to watch the pageant. Maybe I’ll go back next year, now that I know about it, and stick around for the fun.

Sunday mornings around the square are pretty quiet. I assumed that most of the townspeople were home making sure their gardens were well-kept, as directed by the sign on the planter.
(Note: none of the plants in that planter were vegetables. In case you were wondering.)
