I took my regular scoot down to the end of my road today, to catch the late afternoon sun on a spectacular day – but a beast blocked my way.
A digger, and quite a big one, is perched ready to do some damage to something … maybe the empty little house, which I know is slated for removal. Too bad. Or maybe it will crawl down to the ocean and attempt to tame the logs tossed up by the winter sea – a futile effort, the ocean will just put them back when it wants to.
So, my camera was turned from the sublime blue view to the scratches and mud of the machinery. I must admit, I find the abstract roughness quite attractive.
But I know I will hear the grinding and growling tomorrow, and I won’t go down that way until it is finished.
I turn around, and on the way back up my lane I see the fragile perfection of a Dandilion ready to let go its wishes. To me, neither more or less beautiful than the beast.
i like the abstracts messages too!

My challenge did get me back into the posting mode, which was the primary purpose.. it helps me focus. Now to see what that creature does to the end of my road – I can hear it this morning!

Thank you, Brett – it is nice when I can take my time, and no one else was around that day to wonder why I was scrubbing around the excavator…!
