Thinking

January continues.

 I was out for a walk this p.m., partly for exercise and partly to find a blog-worthy photo. It was too cold to really get creative, and hard to convince myself that taking the gloves off was worth whatever dingy photo I might be able to capture. I think it's time to go to the well. I have a lot of pretty sweet photos in reserve and stories to go with some of them. I think.

Rodin's "La Penseur" stands, or maybe more correctly, sits, in the garden at Rodin's museum in Paris. I like this famous statue and even have a different photo, one taken in 2011, framed and hanging in my bathroom. This one was taken in 2010 a few days after spending a rainy day at Roland Garros Stadium and the French Open tennis Tournament.

I should grouse a bit more about November. I think.

Unky Herb was here for a while today to visit his friends in Skyrim. PP has taken control of that planet now and seems to have it under control. NCW took a fast visit to Swan Lake for a dentist visit and see how the winter is settling in up north. I did the New York Times Sunday crossword puzzle and now am trying to get another post done.

It's Sunday and it's halfway through this blog every day in November process. I think I'll make it.

It's a massive sculpture, isn't it? I thought the Rodin Museum was closed during one of your trips to Paris?

Bare fingers freeze quickly in this weather. You made a good choice.

Hang in there -- we have rain in the forecast for next weekend.

It's a lovely sculpture. He has a bunch of nice ones there.

It was the Picasso Museum that was closed. I think that it has recently reopened.

Wonderfully cryptic references to Skyrim. I am in agreement that it is important that SOMEONE keeps control of that planet.

Sweet photos in reserve and stories to go with . . . them. Sounds to me like BEDFAMM.

BEDFAMM????? I know not that acronym. Anyone?

Hmm. Best ever day for alternative mental models? Somehow I do not think that is it.
The Rodin Museum is one of my all time favorites.
Let's hope for some sunshine and warmth in the coming week.

Check the sub-entry on the Santini Acronym guide for NaBloPoMo. Also known as BEDFAMM.
