 Hey, where's the camera?  Hey, where's the light?  At least we have the time . . .   and a sign of the times . . .  at the old Keystone Fire Company building. It's definitely time to go.

What I saw recently

Image
 Birds on a wire  Flying the friendly(?) skies . . .   This Qatar Airways plane flew low over Columbia recently.  Qatar Airways is the state-owned flag carrier of the State of Qatar, an Arab country that has reportedly funded such terrorist groups as Al-Qaeda and ISIS.  It's open: Front Street near Walnut.  But the sidewalk's not quite done.  Who says you can't walk a cat? (Yes, they're actually in there.)  - Romance on the Rails -  Columbia is for lovers.
