I have this blog. And I do nothing. So then I think, I will showcase my best work from now on. Okay… here it goes. When I took this picture, I knew it was a keeper. It had that kind of Smithsonian “artful documentation of the world” quality.

With my camera, of course. A policeman came up while I was snapping pix of the arborland sign. Never been questioned before…..
