What I Found While Looking Around


I've noticed that we go through our life, doing what needs done, hurrying from here to there, and we quit looking around. But the other day as I was walking down Washington St. to the post office, for some reason, the elevators really stood out. I guess because the trees are naked? I don't know. I mean, I walk that road often and yet, there they are. The backdrop to Altamont. Huge but behind the scenes. So, today, I present the Grain Elevators!
