    Drained #ReflectingPool reveals Trump's 'American flag blue' liner is now closer to gray

    The newly drained #LincolnMemorial Reflecting Pool’s bottom surface has noticeably faded since it was lined with a “protective” coating in a color #Trump called “American flag blue” this spring.

  4. Highway Adoption

    The truck ahead of me has a bumper sticker that says “Stay in your lane.”

    At first blush – good advice. But further introspection reveals a flaw. In truth, the lane I am currently in is not my own. Nor is the lane you are in yours either. None of us can lay claim to these streets. At least not individually. Contrary to popular belief, we are a collective.

    Perhaps a truer bumper sticker is the one that says “Share the road.”

    Namely, the entire road is for all. The lane I am in is not MY lane. It is available to anyone else who needs it. You are welcome in the lane I am in, and I hope that I am welcome in the one you are in.

    Alas, too often I forget this truth. I am too quick with my tongue or horn and too slow with a kind gesture.

    So come on over.

    You are welcome here in this lane as well.

    No schedule. No perceived deadline for my ETA. No stress or emotional attachment to the human construct of time. No amount of hubris or disdain.

    Nothing is worth the destruction of a hospitable spirit while one is driving.

  10. A Sunlit Afternoon on the Wall

    This is me standing on the old walls of Cork where I took this photo in Bishop Lucey Park yesterday afternoon. The sun had already started to head to the horizon and it wasn’t even 3pm, but it did light up the mural on the wall and placed the ground in front of me in shadow.

    For many in Ireland, November is firmly in the winter months of the year. It seems to be a traditional Irish/Celtic thing because Met Éireann uses meteorological seasons which classify September, October and November as autumn.

  15. Bishop Lucey’s Pigeon

    If there’s one thing that was a constant in the old Bishop Lucey Park in Cork it was the pigeons. They swarmed over the old city wall where humans were denied because of a fence around it. Sometimes the wall was thick with them, waiting for a child to come along and scream and laugh at them as they flew into the air in panic.
