WE HAD A BIG THUNDERSTORM


 Yesterday's thunderstorm brought rain, thankfully. It also set the stage for a glorious sunset.

REBIRTH


On June 2, 2019, I posted THIS PHOTO of a huge landmark tree. For several generations that tree had given shade to pssers-by, to those who sat below it, and to folklore dancers who often performed  beneath it. If you read that post, you will 'understand' (kind of....) why that healthy tree was chopped down, despite protests from citizens. Now, nothing has become of the project intended (yet.....) and a new tree has been planted. It'll be a while before it casts any shade, if it gets to be that big....

HEATING PLANT, JUST AFTER DAWN

 A distant view of the heating plant from my window.  That's steam, not smoke, thankfully.
