Daily Random Shot 035-11, Old Shed - Maple Heights, OH.


While I was unloading this morning in Maple Heights, OH.I saw a shot that I wanted to take.  I don't always get a chance to get them. Today I did. :)   I really like these old buildings. To be more exact, I like the old brick structures around the Cleveland, Ohio area. I grew up out west.  Very few 100 year old brick buildings out there... 

People's personalities, like buildings, have various facades, some pleasant to view, some not.

Daily Random Shot 034-11 - Crunchy! Wh-OOPS



Way to many cars out there in the ditches these past few days. - Didn't look recent.  But still, it has to suck.

Happiness is not a station you arrive at, but a manner of traveling.

Well it Seems that uploading it the way that I did from a Tweet, and from the phone didn't have quite the results that I had hoped. -  That's alright. I now know what not to do. - Also... What a cruddy shot. LOL...  Oh well.

Daily Random Shot 032-11, Emerald Necklace Marina


This is simply another picture that I took this past weekend at the Emerald Neck Marina.  I've not been in the building... maybe we'll have to remedy that one day soon. :)

As I've mentioned in the previous post,  another blogger already has a good local photo niche blog going on.  I had thought that I could do something similar to theirs. But besides lacking their talent, and eye. I don't think that that I can. Also for me to consider,  I might not be in town when it's light outside. So, I'm going to try and get one done each day while I'm on the road,  if I don't have a local shot handy. Granted, I'm still going to be a Lakewood-iean (?) but I'll be doing what I can do, with what I have. :)

Besides, I need to try and exercise some of the philosophic wisdom that I've heard that says we need to be happy with what we DO HAVE. Rather then un-happy with what we don't.

Happiness is not having what you want. It is wanting what you have.

Oh Snap! - lakewood daily snap: tag tuesday

Looks like someone has got a really GOOD Daily Picture blog for Lakewood. - AND they're taking  GREAT pictures.  -  While I don't want to compete with them, and I doubt that I could at their level,  I'll keep trying to do my Daily Random Picture, as the pic that I post might not be from Lakewood, but wherever I am out and about.  Like the next one that I'll post. :)

You'll have to check out the link below to view their blog and pictures.  :)
