white plastic with screw
is this haiku for ser'us?
haikus never are
I always think this flower looks shy.
Paint on a wall. This is the brick wall next door to Whitlow's on Wilson--it kinda looks like a paint fountain frozen; or it kinda looks like a man who had white blood got speared by a spear with the tip of unicorn, and his blood horrifically and majestically spurted out of him. Or something.
Happy Fourth! Yep, this is actually a whale tale--anyone know where from? And if you like flags--and I know you do--here are two pics that I've posted on such topics before.
OK Clarebears, another Friday quiz. Where in Clarendon is this? Kind of a tough one this week, I think. I thought last week's was kinda easy, but it's still sitting there unsolved. Who will unlike these magical secrets?! So exciting....
After the blizzard earlier this year, the bricks on this pathway were stained white with salt and chemicals for about a month.
{you should write a haiku about me}
So, I'm pretty firmly of the opinion that these "Backyard Wildlife Habitat" things are a waste of time, and are rather a way for city dwellers to look cool to their friends w/o actually having to do anything for the environment or wildlife (I mean, this "habitat" was 3 feet from the busiest street in Clarendon, making it a noisy, dirty, dangerous habitat for any critters to live in), BUT the artist really did capture--in two colors on a metal sign--the sense of wonder of this young boy and mother.
This is the side of a white brick on a fancy fence, with a little red guy crawlin' along doing his thing. Note that each little speck of white is the size of a coarse grain of sand. Put another way, he's about the size of the "O" in "In God We Trust" on a U.S. penny. I think this is a clover mite, but I'm often wrong about such things.
This is the brick and iron fence for the apartment complex on Washington Blvd across the street from the 7-11 (more accurately, across from Endo Sushi and that weird clock at Washington & 10th street).
Exciting! I've decided to post two--that's right, TWO--pics a day for awhile in the morning and afternoon. This is the first such day.
So, I thought it was painfully obvious what animal this paint smattering is, but my friends all seem to disagree. What do you see? I need vindication here....
