Ocala area of Florida is the Horse Capital of the World.

Yet there are estimated to be 400 farriers working in Ocala during show season.

November 22, 2023 – One day before Thanksgiving Day

November 21, 2023 – I love street photography even though there is no street here!

Street photography – Composition, color, and story are what I tried to put into this photo. The focused faces are to tell you that these two men are testing the model airplane, that they just mechanically worked on, to be sure the ailerons are woking correctly before take-off. They read the following headline about a full-sized plane and wanted to be sure it did not happen to their model.

“Street Photography”

AS YOU SWING THROUGH LIFE – Testing is not an indication of lack of confidence in your work – But rather an indication of confidence that you know a job is complete and well done when it passes the test!

Nov 20, 2023 – WOW LOOK WHAT I FOUND!

Look what I found in the news today. 🙂

“Honda seemingly saw the problem with my Christmas Tree story and fixed it. The Motocompacto’s seat, wheels, and handle bars fold neatly into its body, a flat box – no assembly required.”

Think I will get one

Yesterday’s problem

AS YOU SWING THROUGH LIFE – Enjoy life’s surprises

November 19, 2023 – Shopping and Assembly required.

Shopping yesterday made me think of a joke about buying from stores like Ikea where assembly is required. So I ordered a Christmas tree and assembled a bunch of photos to tell a funny story. Hope you enjoy it.

You can do it, I have faith!

AS YOU SWING THROUGH LIFE – Enjoy lifes challenges and if you fail – know that it brings you a step closer to success.

November 17, 2023 – Continuing my series of animals eating:

I think we have a communication problem happening here.

This is my attempt at a Universal Language – We will see how it works in a few moments!

AS YOU SWING THROUGH LIFE – Realize that all folks in the hills east of Pittsburgh know that red up your room means to tidy up your room – I suggest we make that universal so that I do not get strange looks when I say I will red up the kitchen after dinner.
