Weekend in the Country #86
This strong and lovely statue steadies an anchor with one hand and holds the other arm skyward. I suspect she watches over a plot of hearty and proud souls.
Weekend in the Country #71
T knew where all the best sculptures were in the Waynesboro Cemetery and she gave us a guided tour. Apparently she takes walks there sometimes.
Weekend in the Country #56
From the angle of this pic doesn't it look as if someone had the middle finger carved into their headstone?!
Weekend in the Country #36
Please remember our dedicated Armed Services not just this coming Wednesday but everyday.
Weekend in the Country #9
I used to despise when the deciduous trees lost all their leaves. However, I've come to discover behind a camera, they looks eerily beautiful.
Weekend in the Country #7
This weekend we spent the night with T and Nel. The weather was beautiful. We really enjoy their company and the relaxed rural vibe. Here, C and Nel are in hot pursuit of a geo-cache. Yeessss. . .we tried that again this morning. Nel's gear was in top form this time and bonus, this "treasure hunt" took place in a cemetery! C ultimately found it. . .And acorn and an American Flag lapel pin. BTW it was not exactly in this pictured location.

WTF? Spelling Lesson?
Do ya think they meant "whore"?
I've always been of the opinion that if you're going to be a thug/rebel/revolutionary visionary, you should get your spelling and grammar in order. You need to be respected no? Surely you want an educated audience no?
No?
So you are just some bitchasspunk that has nothing better to do than deface other people's property with miss-spelled graffiti? How bout you all do us a favor and get a dictionary and do it right in the name of art? Otherwise your tagging looks like an infantile attempt at destructive rebellion.
What? You were just trying to huff? And the people you were with did this?
Right. . . .
Harper's Ferry #255
I love pictures where the sky seems to be moving. It reminds me that we're all just here on a big round ball essentially being thrust through the heavens. It's humbling.
WTF of the Day. . .
So I'm on my way home from work in the dark of night because of the stupid time change and I'm listening to NPR. This is news:
A local hospital is installing "hygiene spies." That is, they will have appointed folks that will observe to see if hospital staff are washing their hands at appropriate times.
OhcheesenriceisoursocietyintroubleorWHAT?!
That's right. The "hygiene police" will be patrolling hospitals making sure employees are washing their hands. The report indicated that the non-compliant employees, when caught would be strongly admonished to follow the hand washing rules.
This is disturbing on so many levels:
1. Isn't continual hand washing nearly a prerequisite in a hospital setting?
2. Why in the eff wouldn't you want to wash your hands continually if you were dealing with sick people as a personal precaution?
3. If you are a hospital why on earth do you think it's necessary to enact such a stealth program to monitor employees? Can we safely assume it's because you suspect a problem?
4. If you are a hospital and you suspect you have this problem why do you think spying will help? Why don't you effing hunt these folks down, educate them, and then FIRE them for non-compliance?
5. Is this some kind of a gimmick to convince the public this particular hospital is cleanlier than the rest? Hence attracting more business during a time of H1N1 panic?
6. Don't even get me started on why NPR felt this was news-worthy.
WTF, people, WTF?
