Went to the ‘gator farm in Alabama. Too bad there’s not something near this gal for comparison. Her head was about as long as a grown man’s forearm!
Into Alabama
Preparing for takeoff
Leaaaaning into it
Crossing over…again
No, I did not just lift this from the same set of photos from Saturday. I’m driving across this same bridge again, over 120 miles from home, within five days. This time, though, I’m headed further south. See you soon, Atlanta!
Canal
There’s a canal that runs near my house, and I drive along it for part of my drive to and from work. The angle is bad, and you can’t see much of it, but it was a sunny day and everything was green. That, and at the right edge you can see that big orange side-wheeled thing sitting in the canal. I think it’s essentially for “mowing” the sea weedy stuff out of the canal when it gets choked up. It’s been sitting there for weeks. I almost never see one in action, but they seem to like to park them along the canal for weeks at a time.
Driving in
Nothing to see here, folks. Just keep moving along to the next date. It was dreary out, and this was all I got from the day’s photos.
Bugged out
I didn’t like putting this guy down, but he flew in and was moving around the kitchen so fast I thought he was a regular paper wasp. I had those things in my bedroom when I was a little kid, and they can be nasty! I wish I knew what this one was. It’s obviously not a paper wasp. Sorry, buddy.
Spots of trouble
On my way home the sky couldn’t make up its mind whether it wanted to be sunny or threatening.
Crossing over
Crossing the Ohio River on my way to Chattanooga to see a friend. You’ll not be surprised to learn that I am fascinated with the steel work of this bridge. I’d like to build a sculpture with support pieces that look like these braces.
