Just Because

Bend, Oregon ~ December 29, 2009

It's been one of those days. I had a long list of things I was looking forward to doing this holiday, this weekend . . . today. But I ended up spending most of my time fiddling with the tools to do the things rather than doing the things. Most of what I picked up wasn't working right. So tonight I'm posting this picture. Every time I look at it I like it . . . "just because."

Clever

Chicago ~ April 21, 2005

I'd been trying to figure out why this says "Metra" instead of "Metro" or even "Metropolitain." Then I realized (duh) I could easily look it up. It turns out that Metra is the actual name of the commuter rail division of the Illinois Regional Transportation Authority. Thanks, Wikipedia!

Inside the Bell Tower at Monreale

Monreale Cloisters, Sicily ~ April 29, 2004

Francisca, thanks for asking. Here's the bell tower. You can see more of Monreale here. I'll be posting more as time goes on. It was such a romantic place, and one I'd read about for years before seeing it. I only wish I'd had a better camera that trip and taken more photos!
