The games are over and Canada scored big. What a great game today, what an effort on both sides. After having made my home in the USA for so long I must say that my heart was divided. Being part of (some of) the human nature to go against the flow, I wanted to grab the USA flag and ride around the city waving it but I don’t have comprehensive coverage on the vehicle and I didn’t want any trouble. I’m glad Canada broke a few records, including the one with winning the most gold medals. I just found out tonight that the next winter olympics are in Russia in 2014. I hope our dear neighbors are ready by then.
It’s great to see what the human body can do and what high goals can be reached in sports through austere training and hard work. Good games overall in Vancouver 2010, but after all,… they are only games.

Still nature. So still that you could hear the flowers dry as you stare at them. I had fun with it. I realize that there are so many things I want to shoot and if I have more ideas I need to take the one that I cannot do on a different day. Such as this one. I couldn’t shoot it tonight and post it some other day whenever I ran out of ideas. Nor could I have waited for these flowers to dry even more. Actually umm… I could have. Just like with the pumpkin on day fourteen. More to come.
