Derailed

Purposeful or not, you decide! I couldn't figure out this scene when I came upon it. The tops of the railcars are facing the tracks instead of the wheels...does this seem odd to you? Yet, the grain has spilled and the whole scene is quite a mess! I captured this photo between Oakesdale and Rosalia, Washington.

Two photos today! The photo below is my almost 6 year old sons own 'capture'. He drew the above train wreck on his sisters Nintendo DS...he is quite the artist, wouldn't you agree? :)

Mall Car

Every few weeks it seems, there is a car or two parked inside the Palouse Mall. What is surprising is that I go to the mall often enough to notice this trend. I am not a mall person, but I suppose they are a benefit when you need to go to several places at once. Or in the case of the local car shopper, you can ooohhh and ahhhh over the latest offering from Paradise Ford all within the comfort of climate control.

Nothing but a shell

Outside the Museum of Art at WSU is another display...or rather this is just sitting upended on a patio. I am not sure if it was a past display, a future one, or if this is just where it belongs. Perhaps someone nose dived from a few stories up and it just stuck there! In any case, if you click the picture to enlarge it, you can catch a glimpse of the 'heads' that have been displayed and currently reside on the Museums' front webpage. The link is in a post below. :)

Cold transportation

Some adventurous child rode their bike to school today...probably not realizing that by the time school lets out, there is another 2-3 inches predicted to be on the ground...as evidenced by the forgotten helmet lying there. I hope he (or she) is dressed warmly for the ride home! Brrrrrrrr!
