Creating Collages...

My photo albums are chock full of miscellaneous images these days, so I thought before I clean out the folders, and delete some pics, I'd make a few collages...

-brown pelican, yellow aloe vera, black bellied whistling ducks, terns, thistle blossom, turtle and peruvian water lily.


Seawall fisherman, moon, red salvia plant, botanical bog, sunshine, shrimp boat


windmill, amaryllis, shrimper, green anole, alligator, restaurant marquee, flag, yard art spinner

bird nest, bird feeders of the 'literal' kind, yellow wildflower, Charlies Pasture Pavilion, collared dove, tour boat, snowy egret & friend [dowitcher]

Now, to change from collages to random thoughts...

...When I was talking with Erik as he drove from teaching class to his daily stop...Starbucks, we were conversing about the upcoming movies, some of which will no doubt be mega-hits.  With the likes of Jurrasic Park IV, the Avengers...and then in the month of December, my highly anticipated movie:  Star Wars The Force Awakens [at least that is what's it's dubbed for now...who knows if it'll change before release date].  Okay, I knew this already, but ya'll don't so I'll share.  Erik does his opening speech with each new semester and new students with a quote from Empire Strikes Back.  For the both of us, it's an all time favorite, which by the way, we preach like gospel...and it goes like this: Do or do not. There is no try.

...I have been a bit disappointed in season 12 of NCIS ['nough said]

...With my mentioning of tornado warnings around the nearby counties here in Texas, Irene experienced a tornado!!  Where she works...the roof was damaged and a storage building was demolished.  No injuries.

...Which word, if pronounced wrong, is right?

a palindrome is a word, phrase, verse, or sentence that reads the same backward or forward. The question:

...What word becomes a palindrome when viewed upside down and backwards?
