My niece Cintra and great niece Stephanie, forgottenman (Dux), assorted cats and a box of windup toys made for a relaxed and hilarious evening in Eagan, Minnesota.  Tomorrow, back to Missouri.

A Walk Around Town

(A Walk Around Town)

(Click on first photo to enlarge images and read their story.)

 

Setting out
Past the old cinema building where forgottenman spent his early life running around in the theater his grandfather built and ran.
Following the signs.
What can they mean?
Can this be one?
Snake or shard of old ripped canvas?
On the trail again.
More signs
and signs of destruction. Or construction.
Shopping cart and kin.
A greening tricycle,
an old chamber pot,
and an almost red wagon,
New porch extension
with evidence of the old one.
Signs of a sad Halloween
and past wild games.
and a stone kid who will never swing in that swing. Unless, perhaps, on Halloween Eve, some trickster relocates him to his desired spot.
Another mystery, smashed into the dirt.
And finally, home again.

Lots of places here.  To see their story, click on first photo to enlarge all and read the captions, then follow the arrows!!!

We’re off!!!
To mountains
and lakesides
and markets
and meals.
Pyramids,
churches
(whatever appeals.)
Mexico,
plazas
and animal viewings.
Each place that we go
has plenty of viewings.
Film festivals,
concerts
of all shapes and sizes,
when we view them with friends,
all turn out as prizes.
But wherever we travel to, stray to or roam. The best place we visit is always called home.

From Giant Rubber Duckies and dolphins to drones. From big cars to toy trucks, boats to front-end loaders, horses to wings, everything in the world has a way to move itself around.
