If we would only give, just once, the same amount of reflection to what we want to get out of life that we give to the question of what to do with a two weeks' vacation, we would be startled at our false standards and the aimless procession of our busy days.

Every once in a while I will take a day off just to go out and take pictures. I've always gone by myself -- or maybe with Ripley -- and just wandered around. My favorite times of the year are in the fall and spring.
It's amazing how much energy I get from that.
Sometimes, though, there is stress that comes along with the adventure. Last Monday I took the day off and went to a few small towns around here. Sometimes I see things I want to photograph, but I worry about getting too close for fear that someone will freak out. These are a couple of images of someone's garage doors. They're really cool, but it was the kind of house where you thought it best not to trespass.
