A Really Old Car

Jim who owns the Art Works used to have many old cars, and he was using the building for storing them. Many were rented for use in movies. He has managed to keep a few, and I think this Paige has been one of his favorites. But next week, the big place will be hosting a show, so it and the truck beside it must leave the building.

A Luncheon in May

Today's outing.
A nice lunch at a nice place with a nice group of ladies.
An art thing, of course.

Shopping globally

There are a few stores around town that make me think I am in another country. For instance there is a Mexican grocery store (supermercado) that - once you step into - you feel transported to another land. Everyone is speaking Spanish, the shelves are filled with foods with Spanish labels, and the prepared takeout seems more authentic than what we love in Mexican restaurants. We also have a big Asian market with lots of unusual-to-me items. And I went in this cool store downtown that has rice and beans in big sacks. Not customary HT style.

A Meeting in May

This morning I was thinking that since I rarely post pictures with people in them, I would ask the women in the art meeting if I could take a picture of them together. Surprisingly they loved the idea and wanted to have it taken near the garden - since we were at the Arboretum. I took a couple, and then a nice person came and offered to take one with me in it. I squeezed in for the shot.

A Duty in May

Getting the car washed.

A Sunday Morning in the Choir Room

A quick shot as we were gathering . . .

Up in the sky

It is so much fun to capture a picture of a bird in flight - especially a pelican - with my pocket camera that has the better zoom. The detail can't match what the big cameras get, but in this one you can see even the small hook at the end of the beak. Pelicans are fascinating creatures.
