We had a horrendous wind/rain/lightning/thunder storm last night. Abby spent the night under the bed in the guest room and I felt like joining her! I read that the rains are supposed to begin again oh, right about now, so earlier I went into town to see what I could find to shoot. I liked the nautical decor on this bayside home. And then I found a mural painted on the side of a small building.
In my current online class, students have been working on an assignment called "Extreme Colors," and I'm hearing some whining from the Californians ... "It's dark and gloomy here and I can't find ANYTHING to shoot." Weenies. I found a colorful door on the main street of our town, and then on my way back to the car created a sort of weird composition of the corner of a house. Pretty good colors. And I live in OREGON, you California wimps! :-)

Thanks, Jan. And you know what's embarrassing? I didn't even notice the heart until you pointed it out. Can you believe that? Me? The queen o' hearts? Sheesh ... -- Carol Leigh

Oregon must be a terrible place to live. Yes, we are wimpy Californians, "girly men" as Guv. Arnold has named us. And we just don't deal well with dark gloomy weather - you know the kind - mudslides, road closures, waterspouts, power out, coastal flooding, 30 ft waves breaking up the piers, near hurricane winds (yesterday gust to 74 mph) and even a little rain. Fortunately these conditions are rather uncommon here. But your comments seems to indicate that they are ordinary and expected by the brave Oregonians. If that is what Oregon is like, I'm glad to live in California.
BTW, nice photos.
