Memorial Day

It was so cold that it was hard to imagine that Memorial Day, all the way at the end of May, was even a thing that would ever happen.

the long slide down

I like to photograph empty playgrounds. On a day that’s really cold and windy, and in a town where the population is 65, the odds of finding a vacant playground were pretty good.

of course this happened

My friend Brett says to look for metaphors in our images. My friend Don says to photograph what we feel. So, here’s this shot.

Burden

Right here: the burdens of everyone’s grief.

After breakfast

On our infrequent trips to Nebraska, this cafe is a regular stop. The Patient Spouse has fond memories of eating here when he was a kid.

This visit was weird: we were traveling in the pandemic to my father-in-law’s funeral and pandemic reminders were everywhere. Like that upside down table, a non-negotiable way to enforce seating limits at the cafe.
