Here's another one for perspective. Was in the Fremont district of Seattle a few weeks ago and saw this rebuilt cold war rocket fuselage hung on a corner. Fremont proclaims itself to be the Center of the Universe - am not quite sure how this relates to the rocket on the street corner, though!

An entry for perspective.

Rusty,

I like the 3 kites together for flight!

Here are two pictures to illustrate something that makes me angry - vandalism. When we were exploring the small town of Golden, British Columbia, we saw a public area that was landscaped and done so nicely. It was next to the river, had a man-made waterfall and pool, an old-style covered pedestrian bridge, and had been decorated with ceramic painted tiles made by children. Some of the tiles had obviously been vandalized, which really makes me angry. Not only does someone think it's fun to damage public property, but they decide to destroy a child's art work.

On a happier note, here is a landmark in Golden... not a famous landmark, but I think it qualifies.

Here is a photo I took for flight. This is the last of my May 8. I didn't get military/security... maybe next month.

Courtney i love the photo with Chris. It is a shame that some individuals are not happy unless they are destroying something beautiful. The bird in flight is a really cool catch.

Thank you, Judy. The bird (probably a raven, but could be a crow) was sitting on a wire and I waited until it took flight. I had to PS the wire out of the shot because it intersected the bird and was a huge distraction.
