“Be an opener of doors” ― Ralph Waldo Emerson
Five words but they do have power behind them. As for myself I could sure do more about opening more does in my life. I see them all the time in life. I would like to be able to quiet those voices within me who talk me out of opening more doors. I’m envious of those who are always opening the doors in their lives.
Almost everyone has a cell phone. It may not be a smart phone but it will make calls. This image demonstrates that. Heck the man had his laptop open on his lap.
“The strength of a woman is not measured by the impact that all her hardships in life have had on her; but the strength of a woman is measured by the extent of her refusal to allow those hardships to dictate her and who she becomes.” ― C. JoyBell C
Spent a couple of hours last Saturday with my friend Sheri in Old Town. I bought her coffee then lunch, took a bunch of photos and had a wonderful time with her. Thanks, Sheri!
Well, more snow expected for tomorrow, 3-5 inches. Anyone down south, or a place without snow, have a couch I can sleep on for the next couple nights? I’ll bring you some ODells for you.
“It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them.”
Ernest Hemingway
It was 28 degrees as I stood along the dam at Horestooth Reservoir at 6:54 pm. I had this impulse to drive up there and get in a few night shots of the lights of Fort Collins. Of course the wind decided to blow so any sharp images was impossible and went right through my pants. It is the same location as this self-portrait I made this past summer. I do not have many images like this in my archives and learned a couple of things. I needed to wear wind pants next time. 🙂
