A writer's mind....

Many things provoke stories to take root in the author's mind.  This image is one of those things.

However, I cannot find anything out about it.  It's image name is Millpark, but I am not able to find the origins of the image, who took it, or where the site is.  If anyone has any information, please let me know!!

Mystery Solved:
Abandoned Carbide Mill, Lac Meech, Quebec
From Wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thomas_WillsonThomas Leopold "Carbide" Willson (March 14, 1860 – December 20, 1915) was a Canadian inventor.He was born on a farm near Princeton, Ontario in 1860 and went to school in Hamilton, Ontario. By the age of 21, he had designed and patented the first electric arc lamps used in Hamilton. He moved to the United States in search of opportunities to sell his ideas.In 1892, he discovered an economically efficient process for creating calcium carbide, which is used in the production of acetylene gas. In 1895, he sold his patent to Union Carbide.

In Days of Olde...lol

these boots were made for walking

My new boots....sadly while they are made for walking, I cannot walk in them very far because of the knee problems.  Candy Thompson made the boot-toppers with peacock buttons, perfect for them.

Sásta Lá Fhéile Bríde -- Happy St. Brid's Day

One of Jonathan Earl Bowser's most beautiful and enduring imagines, so perfect for St. Brid's Day.  Entitle REGENERATION, apt for this day.  Also, a hope for me.  I have been dealing with physical therapy for the past two months, and may be for a couple more.  I had several bad falls this past year, and the damage to my knees really has put me in a struggle to get back to walking without pain.  I am determined to be ready for the spring and summer coming, and won't let this slow me down for long.

Wishing you a new beginning to your year, a promise of spring.

Someone, please!, put sunglasses on that ground hog.

Wishing you a warm and safe Twelfth Night

My new coat....

I call it my Patrick McGoohan coat...lol (from Ice Station Zebra.)  Very toasty! Considering it's going to be bitter cold this coming week, I guess I am ready.
Don't you love my oh so fashionable knee braces?  Two more weeks of Physical Therapy so I guess it's good way to spend cold days.
  

Happy New Year 2015

A Joyous and Safe 2015 to Everyone
