SMALL CITY PHOTOS

Took myself to Pottsville, PA today, a nearby city with zero planning, just letting the vibes take me.

That brick storage unit building was built in 1900, has over 6,000 square space, and is for sale for just $150,000.

I’d have preferred finding a good place to park and to walk around, but that wasn’t in the cards today, and that’s okay.

The light was terrible, but whatever, it was a Saturday outside on a nice day.

SHELDON THE TURTLE

Recently took Sheldon, the 37 year old turtle, all around the Brandywine Community Library for some portraits.

I’ve been taking photos since high school, from film to digital and back again. Nearing 50, I picked up a Nikon ZFC just to get back in the groove of manual mode, and it’s led to some fun opportunities like this; a fun little time to volunteer my enthusiasm and skills so the local library would have some images to use online.

Saying yes to more opportunities to this, even if they’re out of my element.

HEALING

A rich person wants many things. A sick person wants one thing. And wow, that’s been me this week – a sick person. It was too bad, but it was enough to wreck my normal routine, especially running. I had just done back to back 30 mile weeks, but I know fitness doesn’t disappear in a few days, especially since I’m not training for the Olympics or anything like that.

We are humans, not robots. Progress isn’t linear.
