ladle + coil
As awful as this fire scene was (was the family at home?) (was anyone hurt?) (what happened to cause the fire?) (how long ago did it happen?), I greatly enjoyed finding that mostly-intact ladle on top of a burned/melted/disfigured stove. It added a bit of mystery on top of all the other questions that came to mind.

brown + purple
I found this beautiful purple glass shard in the rubble of a burned-down house. It felt like I’d found a gemstone.
Also, according to all of the internets, a fire would not have turned the glass purple; apparently only prolonged UV exposure does that. And, so there’s today’s science lesson, which I am sure you were looking forward to.

the sky has a big personality
There was a lot of weather going on that day: it filled up the whole sky, which is saying a lot.

ira’s
If, after the long drive from Dalhart, Texas, to Nara Visa, New Mexico, you were hoping for a nice spot where you could have a drink and hang out with the locals – and you were even prepared to offer bonus points to a place that had a cool name like “Ira’s” – you are setting yourself up for ongoing thirst.
Ira’s is no more…

Here’s the lovely and talented Miss Hannah Harvey, in her first year at the College of William and Mary. Check out that look on her face!! She’s quite sardonic when she wants to be.
