What I Saw - February 1, 2015
Some shots from around town today . . .
A woodpecker, camera-shy
A crow, aloof
A case, high and dry
About that sidewalk ordinance . . .
Ancient TV set
STUMP AVE
The new phone books are out - in force
What was once a TV is now a trash receptacle
A pajama person . . .
walking barefoot . . .
when the temp is still below freezing.
