A Gift

Image
Last week, with the weather hitting triple digits here in Colorado, I decided to spend a few days in the high country where it was cooler.  As I walked around a trail I came upon this stack of stumps that had been piled by the forest service. This cross hatch caught my attention and I couldn't help but grab an quick snap.  This was taken with my Android as I didn't have my Pentax with me, but a friend saw it and said she thought it was wonderful so I had a print made and gave it to her.  She has to find her own frame so I haven't seen the final iteration yet.

Found and Delivered

Image
Driving down the road about 30 minutes ago and I see what looks like a cellphone in the middle of a fairly busy intersection where two two-lane roads meet.  I pull to the side, park and walk over to the intersection before hopping out and picking it up before the next wave of traffic cones through.  Not only if it s cellphone but it's one of those book  style cases where the phone is on one side with slots for credit cards, ID, etc. on the other.  In there was a driver's license, a credit/debit card, Costco card and more. In the past, before "smart" phones I'd dial 611 from a found phone and get in touch with the carrier who would then contact the owner for me  But this girl was smart, she had a PIN lock on her phone.  So, I decided to take the phone to the local police department hoping they could get it back to her.  After delivering the phone to a Community Services officer it occurred to me that I had this girl's address and could have delivered it...

Went Camping

Went on a quick overnight camping trip. It was nice and quiet even though there were some people behaving oddly that came by for a minute.  These photos are from the next morning.

What the Heck, Amazon?

Um ... I'm Certain That's a Diesel

I'm fairly certain that giant truck is powered by diesel, not prayers or faith.
