Tartars and Tam

While relaxing at the neighborhood diner I noticed two folk on bicycles trailing little child carriers wheel in next to my truck. The lady, came in for a moment and then left. She wore a form of a gold bejeweled crown or band across her forehead and a tartan dress. Her partner wore the same tartan pattern and the tam as seen here. I pondered if they were Scottish gypsies and this form of transport was their mobile home of sorts with their belongings secured to the little trailers in black garbage bags--freedom in a word.

The winter morning sun is low in the sky and brings this long shadow on the snow. A self portrait of sorts

Shot taken on Saturday at about noon. We have about two feet of accumulation this morning, and I hope to get some interesting shots along the Creek today. I wish I had some tall boots here

Air & Space Museum

Chantilly Va. Cadet Recruit Trainer.
The company had its Christmas Party at this museum tonight. Standup cocktail. Nice. Folks danced about the legendary BlackBird. Fastest known plane in the world. One of the regulars gave me a good brief. It has been replaced by satellite imaging. Flew its last mission in Desert storm but could be brought out of mothballs if need be. A legacy...like me.

We were heading out for some dinner along Hwy 11 North and just a few miles north of Beattyville say this. The little BB doesn't do the scene justice. Note the barn in the foreground
