2 images from my weekend

[Chadeaux]

Took some time to work with these two images (one from Saturday and one from today) this evening before getting back to work.

Tomato blossom from a volunteer (we didn't plant it) that recently popped up.




Crepe Myrtle blossom in front of my store after a rainstorm Saturday afternoon.

How sweet of you to say that

Yeah, not sure what they cut out when they did the bypasses ... but definitely have a soft spot for delicate things now more than I used to.

You know, that's tough on an old school repo man! Got my present job by wearing a shirt to the interview that said: "If you don't pay, it don't stay!"

I catch myself being nice from time to time now. What's up with that?

There are lots of flowers everywhere. They used to fade into the background before, but now I pay attention --- especially to the tiny things.

I love looking at the detail designed into tiny things. If the creator thought them important enough to make them so beautiful, who am I to ignore them?

Beautiful, Chadeaux! And thank you for blessing everyone with those details!

Love Crepe Myrtles! Have a few of the standard "watermelon" color, and 1 white one. Heading down the highway, there is a house that sits way off the road. The driveway is lined on both sides with crepe myrtles...it's so pretty.

We have the red (in the pic), white, and (if the rain stops for a bit I'll get a pic) the pink as well all around my building (spaced far apart of course) where I work.

Edit: rain let up ...



Bit crunchy, but on lunch break. Not much time to spend on finishing it.

I used to make hiking sticks (cypress), I had managed to cut a limb from the crepe myrtle, never made a stick...that wood is hard too hard to work with.


Do you remember Lawson1951? He was one of the moderators, but mostly on the Indian artifact threads. He made flipping sticks for looking for Indian artifacts. He would carve figures on them too. He had sent me one, it still makes me sick to know I lost it in the flood. It was something I treasured in his memory.
