OnLy in BoHoville......






will you never see traffic stopped for old "show" tractors coming through..... except OH here!!!
Sorry I am still disgruntled from yesterday that I had to wait almost a hour for 400 tractors to go through..... UGH!
yes, I should be use to it by now ALONG WITH waiting for the train to "change cars" (about a 1/2 hr wait in the heat..... you don't dare idle with the air on!!!!)
it was just my lucky day yesterday!!!...... yes, this is offically complain &
moan day...... here in agriland! Here you go check them out! photos are by David Manley (no sorry not my pics! but must give credit where credit is due!)
Here they are tooling along the I&M canal......
I&M canal was a manmade water route to transfer goods from Chicago to LaSalle...... many small towns were made due to migrant workers brought here to help make the canal & it's many locks.......

What a day for a Tuesday......?






Well, another day passes & I don't have anything.... new exactly. Still busy painting my studio room so I have to put my world on hold esp. since I had that slight disagreement with the desk & the ladder! NO! it didn't seem REAL bad so I didn't go to the doctor....... althought the way my leg has been swelling I may have 2nd thoughts! LIVE & LEARN! you cannot stand on a flimsy desk no matter how convient it may seem!!!! grrrr



Here are a few of my digital photo monatges the original pic is a old vintage photo & then I incorporated pictures of my daughter screaming (also obscured to make them more surreal) I think it still needs a touch more work...... I am always a work in progress!
this one is a forrest scape taken with my holga combined with fire rings , a vintage pic of my sister in a ballet outfit, & a jack o' lantern......

***cRaZy dAzE***
















here I am at 2 am feverishly working on my creations! hey it's the only time when my velcro child is fast asleep..... must go for broke!!! there is something to be said for the terrible two's..... I have finally finished up my girls.... and of course my trusty old printer which I LOVE has decided that after a unusally long rough hall it was going to die on me.... how cruel doesn't realize I just replenish him with a new cartridge... just like a man! except he has given me more joy pleasure & service!!!! LOL. anyhoo... for those of you who really couldn't give a crap... I will be going through the BIG D & right now i'm in a state of proclaimed man bashing OK. sort of.... just one...





and it's stopped on my good nature so you may not hear anything devinely clever... at least for awhile anyway! I'm feeling pretty far behind and I have been running to catch up .... it's just a ugly scene!





In fact this is the first night all week where I'm NOT tired I looked up & it was 1:30 am.... oops! and a hour later here I am banging away at the keyboard irritated I will have to try to sleep soon......





Anyway, the only thing my early morning is good for is the creative kick I'm flung into & I think I did a sweet job this evening! Enjoy! & Sweet ~yet forgotten Dreams
