Received a photo in the mail today of my mom's hometown. Butler, South Dakota. Taken in the early 1900's (turn of the century) I'm told. A small town then that barely exists today. Most of the buildings wiped away. It's fascinating studying this image from history (with a magnifying glass) of what used to be. I get lost in my thoughts. My mother's roots, at least twenty years before she was born and at least half a century before I was born. Americana!! Amazing!!
I found this button the other day while passing time in an antique shop. I do believe!! Well sort of anyway. For conversation sake. A couple weeks ago I thought that I had experienced a Loch Ness Monster sighting. There was something brown and scary looking swimming through the slough at Riverfront Park. Turned out that it was a beaver ….. I think. There were several other onlookers wondering just what it was. I took several blurred and grainy photos just in case the gossip tabloids want to offer me millions for the image. So what's next for me? ….. Abduction by aliens?
For those who say the music in physical format is dead ….. The local record store sure seems crowded each time that I visit. And many of those people appear to be twenty-somethings. People still enjoy and are learning to enjoy the experience.
