Wide on the Wabash.

By loweho written 9/15/07 8:19 PM, published 9/17/07 11:12 AM

Haven't been shooting much the last few days been doing a lot of chores that fell behind while I was down in the back.  Chores that needed to get done before we leave on vacation.  Did manage to stop by the river this morning after I took Barb to work. The river was very calm with a little morning fog beginning to lift.  All alone and, except for a family of ducks, very quiet.  A very sleepy and peaceful morning.  I could have stayed all day but I had chores to do and am thankful for the minutes I did have.

    Absoluely beautiful color and composition. So glad you are feeling better, too. These are perfectly titled because they really convey a sense of peace and calm that only nature in soliture can provide.

    Enjoyed those. At my age, chores never take priority unless there's potential for serious harm!

    Cherish the closest we are getting is Joshua Tree NP and El Centro. We are going to visit Amber one of the bartenders at roadhouse. She's married to a Border Patrol officer and moved out there earlier this year. BB, it's a whirlwind tour of Rocky Mountain NP, Arches NP, Dead Horse Point SP, Red Rock Canyon, Joshua Tree, Grand Canyon, Petrified Forest NP, spending about a day in each. Of course 3 days in Las Vegas for the boss.
