oh my red - window sill topped blooming geranium this wild and woolly winter's morning
heavy pouring rain throughout the night
dam, damn ice dams
a leaking roof (fairly minor)
people all over the village shoveling off their roof
enormous icicles
lots of chatter (from the Prince) about spring & summer big insulation projects
howling wild winds whipping toward us from the harbour
curving spectacular drifts od brilliant white ... everywhere
a flock of redpolls flutter & cling to the nyger feeder at the kitchen window
one task on the to do list today
a day spent happily painting Week 4's assignment - composition this week's theme
the forecast calls for clearing later this morning
looking out our windows this early morning, it's zero visibility
oh my red geranium
ah 1973 - Steely Dan, more songs from the soundtrack of my youth
an older grey but amazing Donald Fagan - Hey ! 19
Hey, I'm a big Steely Dan fan! Good music that. My favorite song is "IGY".
ReplyDeleteI used to work with Donald Fagan's sister, Susan. It was a long, long time ago.
Hi Judy, did you ever meet him ? I wonder what he was like, is like ? - such a musical genius, the 1973 video they look so young, so kind of hippyish nerdy ;-) xoS
ReplyDeleteHi Susan,
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for the {excellent} comment...
Another similarity...Sadly...A leaking roof! Ice dams here too...My roof is three stories (storys?) high and my Father wanted to get up there...NO way!
I love the abstract first photo and the progression to the obvious third...
I lived in Halifax for three years {2 separate times}. I love Nova Scotia and have met some of my very best friends there...
Thanks again!
xo
Andrea
