a cut above
The distant sound of a lawnmower can be heard over the soccer fields. What?... Over the soccer fields?!! Yes, that's right, "over," as in "above!" It sounded like a lawn mower engine buzzing around up there, somewhere.
.
There is an airport close by, and we frequently see small aircraft flying overhead. They are always interesting to watch, but this one was moving much slower than the others, and sounded different. If you look closely, you will see that there are TWO people up there, and they have nothing to shield them from wind, bugs, birds, high-flying soccer balls or alien space craft. (sigh) What a thrill that must be!.
What... no bag for the air clippings?.

ReplyDeleteNice weekend from Anne in Norway.
Well captured Craver my friend.

ReplyDeleteA thrill for some maybe but not Dot. I want to keep my feet on the ground. Good pictures.

wow! Perfect shot! Happy SWF! We had the sky up there, all speckled with stars, and we used to lay on our backs and look up at them, and discuss about whether they was made or only just happened... mine's up too hope you can drop by.
ReplyDeleteIt must be fun!
ReplyDeleteI would love to try it!
I love to fly.
Great Sky Watch! One never knows just *what* one will see. Those folks are pushing their luck (one woman's opinion.)

ReplyDeleteGreat job.
Hello, Craver VII: thanks for your visit to my raccoon post. I know that 'coons around here have been known to rip the shingles off the roof if they get a whiff of squirrels making their way into one's attic. I wondered why the squirrel population in my neighborhood had decreased significantly in the last year or so. Now I know. Bet most folks think raccoons are sweet and eat only frogs and fish and stuff, but they enjoy squirrel, too. Yuck!
ReplyDeleteBrave souls...
ReplyDeleteGreat SWF catch.
Very nice post but
ReplyDeleteyou will never find me up in one of those:)
Petunia's SWF post
