My online journal where I share my interests in photography, nature, coffee life, journaling, fountain pens, bicycling, spirituality and asking deep questions.
It is the season when shopping centers, churches, schools, offices are putting up trees and Easton Town Center is no exception. I ran to the Apple store in the mall and found this tree lit up and shoppers walking around in the rain. Pulled out the camera and took a couple of shots. High ISO so it is grainy.
Airline travel requires us to wait. Working in the industry I am faced on a regular basis with delays at airports due to weather conditions, mechanical problems and many other factors. When these delays present themselves we will find ourselves having to wait. But, it’s not uncommon to wait just for connecting to another city when traveling through an airlines major hub. On extended waits I’ve seen people sleeping on the floor or laying across chairs while they wait and are not necessarily the happiest of campers. Some airports have come up with vibrating recliners or nice white rockers for passengers to sit back in and wait out the hour or two they may have. This image shows two people as they take in the view of the rain falling at the Philadelphia Airport. It’s the Sunday after Thanksgiving so traffic is heavy and weather is not cooperating. There is much going on around them and yet they wait. Travel safely this holiday season and if you do encounter a delay I hope you find a comfy chair. And, maybe I’ll see you along the way.
The holiday season is upon us. Thanksgiving, Hanukkah, Christmas, Eid ul-Adha, and the Chinese New Year are right around the corner so many of us will be celebrating with family. As a young man I remember those days when we would gather as family, visiting, playing and graze most of the day. This year I had the opportunity to spend an early Thanksgiving with my parents and both my sisters. We laughed, ate, caught up on our lives, ate, visited the Desert Museum and ate!
