through the bus window

I like to photograph while I'm commuting on the bus... through the dirt and the grease on the windows even. Well, maybe not the smeared spots which someone's head has left behind. If I see something like that, I'll find a different seat to sit in because the smear is almost always at my eye level and when I'm looking out at the streetscapes, I don't want to think about what it is exactly which has been left on the window.

I don't think of myself as a germaphobe, but apparently I am to a certain extent.

"Oh, they're just little toys I find around and don't know what to do with.", my dad said.

I guess they keep him company.

I love utilizing public transportation because it affords me ample opportunity to watch other people.

Humans are fascinating.

I'm glad this is no longer the landscape

I'm keeping my fingers crossed that the blizzard currently howling through the Dakotas peters out before it hits Minneapolis.

I'm ready for spring!

Big news for a small town. I just love how detailed it is! At least there's a record of the film strip I watched back in 1986.

This is one of my favorite views along Nicollet Avenue and I would guess there aren't too many mornings that I don't gaze through the bus window at this building as I'm heading off to work.
