POTD 28/365 – Glass Ceiling
The stained glass ceiling of the La Chardonnay restaurant in Midtown Memphis.
POTD 27/365 – Burrow Hall
This yet another photo of Rhodes.
Burrow Hall, formerly Burrow Library, is the home of the Admission Office, as well as most other student service offices on campus.
POTD 26/365 – Dan Molinda Painting
This is part of a painting done on 1/1/2000 by my friend and artist Dan Molinda.
Dan’s work of this period largely consisted of swirling colors, merging into haunting faces.
POTD 25/365 – Gothic Stairwell
Another pic from Rhodes College, the stairs at Barret Library, on a rainy Tuesday.
POTD 24/365 – Barret Arches
Another photo from Rhodes College. I walk under this gothic, heavy lamp on my way to work.
POTD 23/365 – Aboriginal Art
This is a painting by a friend from Sydney, Denise Campbell.
POTD 22/365 – Joe and Ethan
My dad and his grandson, my nephew, Ethan.
POTD 21/365 – Snow Tree in Daylight
This is the same tree in the daylight.
City schools, U of Memphis, and large parts of the city are closed today due to ice on the roads.
Rhodes is open. I’m at work.
POTD 20/365 – Snow Tree
Today’s snow stuck to the bare trees.
POTD 19/365 – Rhodes Art
I pass this artwork almost every day, walking across campus.
This 1970s-era piece shows people in motion and is located at a nexus of pathways at Rhodes, directly in front of the Rat (cafeteria).
POTD 18/365 – Paige and Scott
Hangin’ at RP Tracks.
POTD 17/365 – Fernet
I recently rediscovered a bottle of Fernet-Branca that had been squirreled away years ago, after having been purchased in Prague and brought over by request, possibly by my brother.
According to Wikipedia, Fernet “is a type of Amarillo, a bitter, aromatic spirit.” I agree. You can find it in some places in the US, especially in NYC and San Fran.
POTD 16/365 – Happy Birthday, Lucky!
The one year-old opens presents, with the help of his parents.
POTD 15/365 – Frisbee Time
Kath throwing the Frisbee to Mazzy.
POTD 14/365 – Pottery
Just pretty. Just because.
POTD 13/365 – Ice Dragon
The cold temperatures are keeping the ice intact around Memphis.
POTD 12/365 – Twilight at Rhodes
I can tell the days are getting longer, as there are occasionally trailing whisps of light in the sky when I get off work.
POTD 11/365 – V & E Greenline Snow
From a walk at lunchtime with the dogs; a strange scene for the middle of a city.
It almost looks like a path from a different century.
POTD 10/365 – No Snow Day
Rhodes College is open. I’m at work.
