This is Konstaunse. A lot of times I called her Konny. She hasn't been out of her case since I graduated from high school. Yes, we used to name our musical instruments!
Mary's role and person are captured in the four Marian dogmas:
1 Divine Motherhood
2 Perpetual Virginity
3 Immaculate Conception
4 Assumption
How about a Window AND a Door! These were found in downtown Cento Italy this last week. I figured traveling about 4500 miles deserved 2 photos! And this brings a reason to why I bought a tiny point and shoot a few weeks ago. I wanted to travel light.
A sunny day makes for lines and/or stripes on my bedroom wall. (See previous post of such phenomenon.) Yea, pretty boring but I have things to do.
I'm not really into taking pics of people bodies. I didn't get out to take pics of water bodies. I didn't remember to take a pic at work of a car body. What other bodies are there? What to post? What to post? Here's a cell phone pic of my mom's cat Charlie. He's got the body alright!
This first pic was taken on the morning of October 17, 2010 of a local urban intersection down the street from where I live as part of my collage for the theme "My Day."
4 weeks later the same intersection shows the urban renewal taking place here. Once a grocery store but soon a movie and bowling megaplex complete with overpriced cocktails! 
The leaves change color and fall to the ground. Cool weather is now here and will soon change to cold weather. Too cold. How many days until season spring?

In celebration of getting my G9 back from the shop I couldn't just take ONE pic for "My Day" but decided to take an entire day of pics. Here are 42 of My Day Friday October 15, 2010.This also marks the end of my 690 day weekend.
Just got word AND a tracking number! The G9 returns... soon... maybe in time for this weeks theme?
No, it's not Easter! A tradition when I was growing up was to put hard boiled eggs in pickled beets so they would turn purple. A lot of the time the beets were grown in our garden and then canned by my mom. It was always a favorite back then so I tried it again in my old age (but with store bought beets.) Delicious!
Elizabeth has been here for 170 years this month.
Although the tress are still green 
Tobico Marsh, located just north of Bay City, Michigan, and part of the Bay City Recreation Area, was designated as a registered National Natural Landmark in 1976 because of its large size, relatively undisturbed condition and variety of aquatic plant life. With nearly 2,000 acres of wetland woods, wet meadows, cattail marshlands and oak savannah prairies, Tobico Marsh is one of the largest remaining freshwater, coastal wetlands on the Great Lakes.
Home for rent. Open floor plan of approximately 1 square foot. Complete with cedar walls and a great view.
This bat home went up on my chimney this spring and still no renters. According to BatConservation.org:
- Where you mount your bat house plays a major role in the internal temperature. Houses can be mounted on such structures as poles, sides of buildings and tall trees without obstructions. Houses placed on poles and structures tend to become occupied quicker than houses placed on trees. (check)
- Should face south to southeast to take advantage of the morning sun and need to receive at least 6 to 8 hours of direct sunlight. (check)
-It is also advantageous to paint the house black to absorb plenty of heat. (yea, I don't think so)
- Should be mounted at least 15 feet above the ground, the higher the house the greater the chance of attracting bats. (check)
- Most houses used by bats are occupied in the first 1 to 6 months during the first summer the bat house was erected. (3 months to go)
- If bats do not roost by the end of the second summer, move the house to another location. (yea, I don't think so)

Light from my lamp.
Something repetitious? Tomato plants! Especially the ones that produce the smaller kind like these here bite-sized St. Nicks. Part of the genus lycopersicon they are. Plant in full sun. Matures early.
A circle is a simple shape of geometry consisting of those points in a plane which are equidistant from a given point called the center. Being trained as a draftsman I had an instrument to make such a shape. So I did. 
I then noticed that the lunch I was frying was round in the middle. Two pics for the price of one this week!
Not a cloud in the sky, only the third quarter moon. A minimal sky makes for a perfect 4th of July. Happy Birthday U.S.A.
