Might as Well Try and Catch the Wind
Highway 93, Nevada
2019

On my drive to Nevada I had strong headwinds or strong sidewinds most of the way–but no tailwinds. Unlike me, I imagine the owners of these wind generators appreciated the strength and consistency of the winds.

Winter got a very early start in Montana (we basically had no fall weather), so I’m taking a very early escape from the cold and snow. After driving through snow even through much of Nevada, I finally drove out of it at Cathedral Gorge.

Likes Change

This image is just a “time-study” of the changes in an old 7-Up ad painted on the side of a building that I first photographed 16 years ago (shown below). I called that photo from 2003 “Likning Strikes,” a play on words related to the crack in the wall which looks like a lightning strike. It’s interesting that over time the both the white background paint and the black letters have faded, revealing more of some lettering that had been on the wall and even longer time.

This is a retired turbine from one of the power plants along the Snake River in Idaho Falls. It’s as worthy a sculpture as any piece purposely made for artistic gratification rather than function.
