Please admire my pink and swirly Blackberry Pearl. My old phone was dying--it would just shut down and I'd pry it apart and reinsert the battery and it would make one more call and then shut down. It was also literally disintigrating; little bits of plastic fell off every time I pushed buttons. Found a good deal and snapped up this fun little phone.

which myriad people were blithely ignoring!
look at that blue!
It is said that smell is the strongest memory-triggering sense. There's something in this crisp air that I cannot describe--something tangy and tart and woodsy. As soon I inhale it, I am swooped back to being five-years-old and playing out the woods behind the school in Alaska.
Hard to believe that this water is usually full of ducks and kayakers.

more shots of skaters; it's surreal to see real frozen water (as opposed to man-made rinks) in western Washington.

And yes, a penny was found!
Wow, I find it astounding that you have a skating lake!!!! I would definitely not go out, but how cool!
ReplyDeleteAnd your swirly phone is lovely, of course. And takes decent pictures, I assume? Some of them were pretty sharp.
nope these are all from my ancient (well, in technology terms) camera
