"There are nights when the wolves are silent and only the moon howls." ~ George Carlin
Grandson Elijah only had a half day of school again today, so after a "delicious hamburger" (I'm quoting him) at McDonald's for lunch, he was ready to settle in at Granny's house to play video games on the Wii and watch Pink Panther cartoons on Netflix. He was none too happy when we made a detour to spend some time with my mom/his great granny. No cousins there to hang out with today. His mom came to the rescue and loaned him her iPod which he enjoyed for a while. But the thing he probably enjoyed the most was getting to throw rocks in the pond on the grounds at my mom's place. He loves to do that. Plus, walking under the willows and getting to say hello to the resident cat is fun, too. (The cat-- whose name is Snuggles, I think, but we call him Persian and sometimes Elijah calls him Butter-- got a shave and a haircut for the summer.) So the afternoon wasn't a total bust for Elijah. Anyway, he'll be stuck inside a classroom all too soon when kindergarten classes start full days next week. 
Had fun snapping some random shots in black and white. And shades of gray. Happy Middle Of The Week, everyone! 
"I don't know if we each have a destiny, or if we're all just floating around accidental-like on a breeze. But I think maybe it's both. Maybe both are happening at the same time." ~Forrest Gump (1994)
