It’s a Blessing

The July 4 band was playing all the usual songs. I wandered around, like I always do, with a camera and an idea that maybe there’d be something that would look OK in a photo.

And, just three and a half years after I made this shot, I noticed that the instrument case says “It’s a Blessing” on it. (I’ll wait while you give the photo another look.) And that’s only my second favorite thing about it – I love how it’s obviously been used for years and has the scars and scruff marks to show for it.

Perhaps an explanation is in order

Look! I found a completely incomphrehensible side-street mural in downtown Hobbs, New Mexico.

After dinner

Our genial hosts at the B&B handed us a stack of menus from local restaurants, then gave us a short rundown on each one. Based on their phrase “…and he’s trying to make a go of it.” we ended up at Ken’z Cuisine* for dinner.

The food was good, and the place was totally of the 1970s as far as interior design motifs went.

*Yes. That is indeed an apostrophe-z.

Whipping into the storm

One of my regular commenters (you know who you are) said, in response to this picture from earlier in the month, “I hope you did another shot somewhere just of the sky. Deserves to be more than just supporting cast.”

And so, here we are.

And, here we are with yet another song reference as a title. Because that’s the way I am.
