FORGOT HIS GLASSES?

It's possible he's squinting because he forgot his glasses, but maybe it was because it was so sunny. 90+ degrees (32c) yesterday...and will be today too.

CONVERSE 2025


 Sneaked a photo of these sneakers at the bus stop yesterday. When I was a kid, only boys wore these 'basketball' shoes, a far cry from the cushy, modern ones. Here are Converse All Stars with flair...

"I'M ALL EARS."

This sheep gave me a fright when I peeked into the window of what I thought was an abandoned stable near DEGURIC, SERBIA, where I recently spent four days in the area's beautiful countryside.
