Some summer randoms, pt. 1
Posted: Sun Aug 14, 2005 9:17 amJust wanted to share some pictures I've taken in the last few weeks... some are just fun snaps, some are pretty interesting. Check it out:
No, it's okay; Runway 22R is just ahead for this UPS hauler... finding it harder to catch these KEWR arrivals with the digital than with my old camera...
Loft-mates Marshall and Andrew in fierce ping-pong battle...
Actually cooked the other night, despite the heat. This chicken turned out nicely, stuffed with bread, broccoli, onion, and garlic; got a little carried away with the cooking sherry (on the bird- I was drinking beer!), but not too bad.
WE have too many big windows here to bother with screens, so we often get winged visitors in the summer. The pigeons are a nuisance, but it was thrilling to find this enormous, beautiful dragonfly (wingspan: about 4") on the kitchen ceiling one morning. When I got home from work that day, it was desperately flinging itself at one of the sealed windows in the living room, so I carefully trapped it in a bag and turned it loose. Dragonflies are my kinda bugs...
A very random "drive-by" shot on the road to Morristown. I like the birds.

The big windows visible way in the background of the P.P. table shot all face East; one can watch southbound arrivals all the way from the north end of town to the inner marker. Sometimes they come right over the building on a right base to 22. The centerlines of 22 L/R are just a few blocks to the East. One of these days I have to get a good picture from over there... no luck yet.
