Euonymus fortunei, Wintercreeper. One of many invasive Asian plants that have spread across the American landscape, often displacing indigenous flora. The tree the vine is choking is Acer saccharinum, Silver Maple.

Bye, bye warm and sunny October...

Almost a quarter of my small adopted hometown in southern Oregon was burned to ashes, in a catastrophic and unanticipated wildfire, a bit more than a year ago. Today, most if not all of the formerly devastated areas are in the process of rehabilitation and reconstruction; it's amazing how human enclaves can adapt and survive. But here and there, there are still pockets with parts of the former devastation in evidence - like this burned truck, that sits alone, in an area of the highway that burned, with the blackened trees of the former bike path in the background, and behind them, a stretch of green where the fire never reached some trees. And behind all of that, the foothills of the (volcanic) Cascade Mountain range, to the East.

Change is the one constant.

Busy days with little time for shooting. Add some rain to that, and this is what you get.

I've seen this kind of thing before but this one is really good.

She's so (wait for it) appealing.

I know ... daft, isn't it?

I probably shouldn't admit to having this very same thought. However, Bill has a functional index finger (and maybe others after he reads this) and knows how to point a camera, which is most of my skill set. So, if I set sufficiently large error bars, his stuff will be within 4 or 5 standard deviations of what I could do with the camera. Science, right?

We have a Ford Model A club at the hotel this week.

I thought this was a pretty detail.

Like kudzu, but different. Invasive stuff can be a serious issue.

Knees are getting better. Pain is mostly gone. Walking on flat stuff is a bit easier today. Stairs and un-even ground might be a bit of an issue for a while.

Safety shot, kinda, was going to shoot some meal prep/ cooking stuff this month anyways.

Hope she comes out of it okay, Tim. Hopefully you will, as well. It's good to have someone minding the home front.

Not a pleasant scene but I guess it tells a story (late night, fatal accident). I noticed a few weeks ago and happen to pass by it this afternoon.

Nice town to visit with a camera. I did that once with the E-P5 and the 20 1.7 and it worked really well.

Yesterday's shot was a safety shot before I went to bed since it was a busy evening.
