1960. higher and higher


higher and higher
way up there in the sky—
what fun!

 



How many times I look up in the sky and think to myself. . .wish i could fly!




1959. hurry up and wait!


standing in line
waiting for the doors to open
odd man out

snow’s all gone now
more snow’s on the way….
waiting 






Heavy snows in the forecast again—14 to 18 inches, wind gusts up to 40 mph, due to begin tomorrow morning by 7AM. Wanting to stock up on food, I hurried to Trader Joe’s early thinking they’d be open at 8AM only to have to wait til 9. Fun part was seeing so many women hurrying in from every direction, and just one guy. With nothing to do but wait we all ended up in a group chat, kinda like clucking hens with a lone rooster joining in. Turned out to be a fun way to start the day.




1958. me and my bird


feeling heavy
all the way down to the ground—
me and my bird

I finished this one just in time. It’s perfect for saying how I woke up this morning.  Got up late, feeling droopy, sky’s all dreary. Atmospheric pressure weighing me down. It’s raining heavy, temperatures climbing, foggy air on the way down. Perfect day to hang low.😉
