undulating fields of autumn

I don’t know…there’s just something about those curvy hills – said everyone who’s been to the Palouse.

after the harvest

I know the traditional time to go to the Palouse to photograph the famous rolling hills of wheat is in the early summer, when it’s green and lush.

So, naturally I went in September*, when it was brown and dusty. (In that way, it reminded me of home.) I liked seeing the patterns in the fields and the distant columns of dust rising from a harvesting operation.

*I didn’t just wind up there in September: I went then on purpose.

not a level playing field

The basketball court is flat. But it’s definitely not level. Maybe it doesn’t matter?

a paintbrush and some other stuff

In news-that’s-not-really-news: I made a photo through a dirty window of an abandoned service station.

That paintbrush seems out of place.

expo ’74

All the way back in the last century, Spokane, Washington, hosted a sort of small-scale world’s fair called Expo ’74. The signature structure of the Expo is still there, and now it’s a park.

You didn’t really NEED to know this. And I didn’t NEED to tell you.

But here we are.
