This week's photos of Columbia

 Looks like it's a pumpkin-eat-pumpkin world out there.

 Here's another remnant of Halloween.

And another

 Cat's eye

 Things seem to be progressing at Floyd's of Leadville on Bridge Street.

These guys were putting in a new concrete slab there.

 Two main rules in life: Don't open a can of worms, and don't stir up a hornet's nest.

 That crane at 4th & Locust can be seen from Laurel Hill.

 There's a new hawk in town.

Redtails have been thriving here.

 PPL crews worked on North 4th this week in conjunction with the construction project at 4th & Locust.

One worker decided to try to prohibit photographs in the area - you know, in public, where it's legal. 

So, it's time to post this again.

 The trash pile at this property in the 500 block of Avenue G has been cleaned up, after sitting there for a few years.

 And this attic window, former entrance to a vultures' nest, has been boarded up.

 The 400 block of Locust was closed off for two days this week to accommodate the crane and other vehicles at the construction site there.

 It's a mighty high crane.

 Obviously a supervisor

Speaking of pickups, here's an interesting one.

 Weekend warriors

One of the herons is back. They'd been lying low since the Bridge Bust.

 Sunday morning run

 Things were going swimmingly during the Sunday morning river training, led by Todd Stahl.

 Just remember not to lose your head during training.
