243. Up My Alley


'Up My Alley'
6" x 6"

This is not technically 'my' alley, it's not even my neighborhood. 
What it is, though, is power poles and power lines and dumpsters all lined up and basking on a sunshiny fall day. That, my friends, is a whole bunch of stuff that's 'right up my alley'. ;)

Fyi, the neighborhood is in Longview, WA, looking south from Lake Sacajawea. The tree-covered ridge in the distance is Oregon; what we locals refer to as 'the Rainier hill'.

242. Moo Baby


'Moo Baby'

I've attempted this little cutie a couple of times before and failed miserably. 
I get stubborn about things like that, so this week I gave her another shot.
Much better this time around. She makes me smile. :)
