february is a bit too early for baseball and the weather was not very cooperative for pictures the other night. I decided to use the fog and try for artsy instead. the scene in B&W coming up to the plate (I really like this one for some reason) and firing it in (love the face)

by the tire store this morning was a place where we bought a baby bed a long time ago. wonder how long it has been out of business. I wonder if the property will be put to any use. reckon if there is a metaphor somewhere in this.

Happy Thanksgiving

God, in his sovereignty and to praise of his glorious grace, has allowed this nation to prosper in a material way far beyond any previous nation’s prosperity. [...]
