this was right by the bus stop, which i needed as was dead tired and heading home without a daily, but it caught my imagination anyway. the weeds look like water flowing over a rapid to me and i also thought it was cool how many different plants (i've noticed at least a dozen) there are. i still haven't caught up on everyone's dailies for which i apologize. just dead dog tired and allergies were nasty today though it finally started to rain, hallelujah!, and i hope to sleep well tonight. just got off the phone with DOD and he's improved a bit but the docs are planning to keep him in hospital for at least several more days. he wanted me to express his personal thanks for all the kind wishes and prayers. there's a puter in his room that can be used for a short time so i was playing various galleries as slideshows and read him some of the comments and e-mails. he says "God bless you all"

i actually shot this near the same time and place as the train yesterday but it poured rain all day today and my allergies were acting up so... i liked their positions relative to each other and their poses, tho the young one turned his head a bit just as i shot sahdowing his eye

the main railroad between the ports of seattle, wa, usa and vancouver, bc, canada runs through bellingham. my apartment is about 3-4 blocks from it so i hear them when they go through, a sound i love. some days we get two or three and other days we get over a dozen. the rails run right along the water for quite a long time and its a very pretty trip tho only one passenger train a day runs between the two cities any more and there's talk of phasing it out. my mum used to take me on the train to visit her parents when i was preschool and we lived in seattle (they lived in vancouver). i really like to travel by train and will miss it when it gets phased out, as i've no doubt it will
