SYMMETRY?

 

Hmmm....This is one of those photos I thought would turn out better. Was desperate for a photo!

DOWNSIZING

 

Ever wonder how many layers of posters a kiosk can have? Now you know!

SUMMER BEER

 These were full cases of beer, a sign that summer is in full spring, and that it's still darn hot. I imagine the grocery store's fridge is full. 

HOPE SPRINGS ETERNAL

 

Like in many places, there's been no rain and all is hot, yellow, and dry. I came acris the little tree today on an already fairly shaded sidewalk. There was another about 10 yards farther. I imagine this was a city initiative. Both were generously watered and I am making it my duty to water each one every day, and hope the rain comes soon. 

HARD TO KICK THE HABIT

 This man was NOT smoking. I saw him extinguish his cigarette before he entered the bus, but old habits die hard. He was dry-puffing for two stops, then exited the bus.

BLACK AND BLUE LAUNDRY

 Laundry day!

REACHIING FOR THE SUN

This sunflower in the unkempt yard of an abandoned-doomed-for-demolition building makes one last stab at reaching for the sun.

Qué Calor!

These two chihuahuas didn't seem to mind in the least being packed into this carry bag. Only breeds from hot countries can appreciate our upper to mid-nineties temperatures.
 

WATCHING THE WORLD GO BY

 "Something's going on down there!" 

NIGHT BASKETBALL

 Too hot in the day for serious basketball, but evening temps make a game possible. (And yes, the ball went in the hoop.)

GANDHI WALKS

 I got my hair cut the other day and as I was walking with my walking stick and billowy dress, I noticed I resembled Gandhi!  I've posted about India's spiritual leader before and even posted another Gandhi shadow, which you can see RIGHT HERE.
