The user, typically a child
On an overcast morning, a well-used and well-polished slide caught my photographer’s eye. I won’t tell you how many kids I had to chase away so I could get this shot.
Oh, you know what? Yes, I will tell you: none. There were only two kids at the park, and they were someplace else.

As you journey ever on
I kind of wish my front yard looked like this…
Lake Colorado City State Park

at 38.6% capacity
If there’s no rain, there’s no lake to speak of. This lake is currently at only 38.6% capacity. However, there’s a lake only 50 miles away from this one that’s at 12% capacity, so that makes this one practically at flood stage.
Droughts are awful.

The Sky Takes a Lead Role
Some scrappy brush that hasn’t yet leafed out for the summer, dwarfed by the giant sky.

Thermax
A close up of the x-ray machine from yesterday’s post.
For those of you who were wondering, I did some research on Thermax, and it currently has a lot of references that deal with “Pune-based industrial energy solutions provider Thermax.” (I first read that as “prune-based industrial energy solutions, which made for a fanciful few seconds. Welcome to my mind.) Anyway, the only thing close that I found was a reference to a 1974 x-ray machine in a British medical journal.
So there you are.
