Merry Christmas 2011 / Happy New Year 2012
Merry Christmas, heading into 2012, a year I never thought would come. Meanwhile downtown Detroit, a streetside window on Woodward sends it’s bright light holiday chill into the air. Plenty of seats left for singing, souping and lecturing.
Dust Bowl Blues
South of Fresno, CA (Fall 2010) a couple cars parked off the highway next to the fill-er-up. Dust caked and time baked to distinction. Ultimately bound for glory in my book. Nice juxtaposition with the Christmas lights permanently fixed to the house.
Season’s Greetings From Your Sinclair Dealer
And even more greetings from a Christmas Day drive thru the backroads, all fossil-powered and very traditional. That’s Santa back there with the Misses, behind the dinosaur.
The Christmas Bulb
Nearing the end of the year, a time to sit back and edit all those shots that stretch years into the past. Many not scanned, resting like cordwood on contact sheets under camera parts and cans of air. Changed my OS so many times that I’m sure the scanner needs emergency driver updates too. But here, I’ve found the secret to Santa’s lead sleigh-runner. And in case I become forgetful, Merry Christmas! Bring on 2010.
Greetings from the Season
You’d think I’d forget you? This time of year? We’ve known each other longer than that. Well, here you go. A little something. Something I found. Merry Christmas.
It may sound strange, but I just finished a 2-day jury duty and I enjoyed it. Started wondering if one could be a professional juror. Eat at the courthouse cafeteria, become familiar with all the jury rooms, acknowledge the judges silently as they pass in the halls. That knowing nod of yep, I’m back again. Collect, what, $40 a day.
Bearing Gifts
All the shopping is done, carts abandoned, cars packed and off we go. Merry Christmas and the best for 2008.
Christmas Waiting Room
A jolly man hidden behind a holiday, talking with his hands and credit cards. Coffee’s been on the burner all day.
