And sure enough, since the last time I posted anything here, it got whacked by hail. Vicious climate. It never rains without hail or severe weather of some sort. The only weather we have is severe weather. But I think it'll all recover. At least, before the next hail storm, which might be this weekend. Memorial Day weekend.
There really wasn't much to photograph anyway.
We found this Lapis pyramid at an estate sale, along with a lot of carved Jade, years ago. All very cheap. We bought some of the carved Jade and this thing. I put it in the bird bath. We sold the caved jade at a nice profit!
I have places to explore this weekend, and hope to get a lot of pics. Not finished with the garden in this early state.
It's that time of year, and so far it hasn't been ravaged by hail. That could change tonight. At any rate, apart from scattering a wildflower seed mix, I planted nothing. But things are coming up like gang busters.
Funny thing is, I don't remember planting any cats. This explains the little eyes I've seen in the garden, back among the sunflowers. So I'm leaving food and water. What choice do I have? In my opinion, any animal at all, even a rattlesnake, is far finer and less noxious than about 50% of the human race. And I'm being generous to humanity. VERY generous.
Things are in a very early stage.
The cats have made tunnels in the increasingly dense foliage.
I didn't take as many pics as I could have. I don't think it's safe to linger very long in these locations. Too many trigger happy assholes, for one thing.
Details are interesting, but almost never noted.
All too often the "big picture" is a vacuous generality. Boring.
That's it for this series. Something else next time.
But I do have new pics in the pipeline.
I've located some more wrecked/junked cars, too.
There's another old, commercial, alley I want to look, as well.
I'll finish this next time.
And it occurs to me that Don the Con's mouth, spewing lies and toxic fantasy in every direction, really is as dangerous as Hannibal Lecter's!
I'll need to take some more photos pretty soon. Visited a local ag type store this morning for animal feed and I was the only one wearing a mask. I felt sorry for the employees. I did not feel sorry for the rednecks. If they had children, I felt sorry for their children. I felt really sorry for the children at Jonestown. Not so much for the adults. Crazy times. Sick, sad, crazy.
Deserted places like this alley have a lot of appeal right now. Some more of these to post before I run out. Then I'll need to find another place free of human contagion.
