Orange to California
Water dripping onto the muddy frozen-gravel path.

         in this semi-desert climate, I should be thankful for mud.

Yellow and red rose petals strewn about.

         reminding me that a homeless man was shot and killed hereabouts.

A man riding his bicycle in his shirt ... sleeveless.

         ... and gleeful as he spoke!

Young guy with a fishing pole, green fly.

         seemingly lost and yet he wasn't the only fisherman out.

Sleds with children at a distance.

         slopes of the park for the kids in training for the slopes of the mountains.

The nuzzle and bark of assorted dogs.

         they comes in all sizes and colors and dispositions, most greet me.

Fenced off osprey nest at the top of a pole.

         the baseball team's called the Ospreys and this pole is beyond center field;
         wonder how many balls they've caught.


Beige reflection on the rapids.

         took a photo of taco-something giving color to the river flowing by.

Yellow mini-bottle of chardonnay.

         gold for my collection of colored glass on the sill back home.

Swirl of ice in an eddy.

         mesmerizing motion; I don't stop for long.

Sun glinting off black plastic like metal.

         like the sheen of a new car or rail along the river bank.

New plank bridge across the dry drainage ditch.

         I crossed over the frozen hay bales.

2009, January 30th, from the Orange Street underpass to the California suspension bridge along the south side river walk, Missoula, Montana.
