2024: Shucking Oysters. Taken at Pesche Seafood Grill on Magazine St, New Orleans, LA

We made a mistake with the time of our reservation and a little bit of rain seated us at the oyster bar. We quickly learned that it was definitely the best seat of the house. No sooner than we sat down then the oyster shucker who is pictured here werved us up a plate of oysters. By the time the evening was over, we paid for about half the oysters that we ate, and he entertained us all evening. Of course the tip we left him probably covered the cost of the "free" oysters a couple of times.

2020: Ice Cream with a Face Mask and Purell. Taken at Hole in the Wall Ice Cream Shop on Oak Park Ave just south of the Eisenhower Expressway in Oak Park, IL
2018: Break. Taken on Taylor Street west of Ashland in Chicago. I spent most of the day trying to patch several holes in my pond liner. I was muddy and tired by the time that I finished and went to Taylor Street for dinner. I hadn’t taken a photo and arrived at the restaurant about 20 minutes early -- so I was able to take a walk and get a photo.
2016: Putting a little english into it. Taken on 18th Street just south of Columbia Rd in Washington, DC
2012: Overlooking the City. Taken at the Brown Line L stop at Madison.
