Wishfully

We went on a trip this weekend following the Great River Road scenic byway as it wound its way through Minnesota and Iowa following the Mississippi River. 

We saw high water and flooding everywhere.  Most of the dams we stopped at were wide open, with no difference in water level on either side.  I don't know if high water is good for fishing, but considering the number of boats bunched up around Lock & Dam 7, the fishermen obviously are hoping so.

Gnarly

I guess I'm still on a light fixture kick.  I'm not sure what this one is trying to convey, but I know for a fact that my cats would love it.

Atomically

Another light fixture I saw at Menards.  I actually like this one.  It reminds me of the structure of an atom or a bunch of planets.

But again, it looks like a real pain to dust.

Haphazardly

We were at Menards today and this light fixture caught my eye.  They call it "Ribbons", but to me it looks like an industrial ceiling fan that spun too close to an immovable object. 

I can only imagine how long it would take to dust it.

Dreary

It was a very dreary day today – snow, sleet, ice and lots and lots of wind.  Saw this poor lady during my morning commute.  She looked very cold as the wind whipped around her.
