nasty weather


the late summer doldrums are firmly entrenched here with muggy temps and dreary skies. here's another shot from the rainy sunday - i love this old building and wish all the wires, poles and surrounding buildings weren't in it's way.

now, off to a flea market, car pool and grocery. back in a bit.

  3. oh, i hear you! when wires and telephone and light poles are in the way (not to mention cars and trash!), it is a tiny bit frustrating!

    hope the weather gets better soon. DREADFUL weather here. 105ish, plus fires galore. ugh.

  7. Sounds like our weather here. We are saturated from all the rain we've had. Wishing you lots of sunshine.

    That is a great old building. I like the roof. Is that chairs up there or just part of the railing?

    Have a great Wednesday.

  8. I feel as dreary as your weather, despite the fact that it feels like a beautiful autumn day here. Weird.

  9. The photo of that building looks so mysterious for some reason. Haunting, sort of.

  11. It sounds like the kind of day to stay inside and spend reading a cheery book.

  12. I'm all for the tucking myself in and reading a good book. But photographing in an evenly lit dreary day can create wonderful images. I love your photograph, and agree about all those little "extras" which creep in - like wires and buildings, etc. Do you know Photoshop Elements?

  19. Beautiful. We had several days of rain here last week and after a while I was going nutty. I'm glad it's sunny and happy today :)

  20. Oh, this is a perfect image. I actually love rainy days. Stormy days are even better. I always wear red, hot pink, or yellow on rainy days. When we have the first big storm of the year at school I turn off all the lights but one little lamp, gather everyone on the sofa and reading rug, and I read them Thunder Cake by Patricia Polacco.
