Old Stomping Ground – Snapshot of the Day, No. 194

When we were kids and visited our grandmother’s house in Brainerd, our father would take us on walks through the neighborhood. We always had a ton of fun. Sometimes we would walk to the Clarence T. Jones Observatory. A bit overgrown now, these are the steps that lead to the observatory. I ventured up mostContinue reading “Old Stomping Ground – Snapshot of the Day, No. 194”

Buying Groceries – Snapshot of the Day, No. 192

I was buying some corn at P&P Produce today when I saw this mother and daughter (I’m assuming) at the other register. The little girl was so beautiful, I just couldn’t resist taking her photo. I’ve uploaded a couple of other images in this project of P&P, but it’s right down the street from workContinue reading “Buying Groceries – Snapshot of the Day, No. 192”

Saint Paul’s – Snapshot of the Day, No. 189

Although I am not a member of this church – Saint Paul’s Episcopal – I’ve been inside often. For weddings, as well as funerals, I’m afraid. But it is on the National Register of Historic Places. It was even used as a hospital during the Civil War. This photo is sort of a tribute toContinue reading “Saint Paul’s – Snapshot of the Day, No. 189”

My People! – Snapshot of the Day, No. 187

I made a U-turn today with the intention of returning to a spot that I thought would make a good photo of the day. Fortunately for me, I turned down this road and discovered this painting in the window of this building. I do not know the name of the building. I may add itContinue reading “My People! – Snapshot of the Day, No. 187”

Amazon Dreams – Snapshot of the Day, No. 185

I had some extra time today, so I went to the River Gallery Sculpture Garden and found this lovely sculpture – “Amazon with Sacred Geometry,” Steel, $28,00 – by Russell Whiting. She seemed to want to go inside this house, so that’s how I shot her. It was hot, after all.

I’ll be Watching You – Snapshot of the Day, No 181

For as long as I can remember, this building – a former gas station – has been vacant. But now it is about to reopen as a restaurant: “Universal Joint.” As for the eyes painted on the building behind it – that was just luck for me. I have no idea why they are thereContinue reading “I’ll be Watching You – Snapshot of the Day, No 181”

The Hidden Door – Snapshot of the Day, No. 178

I kept walking around the corner of this street and noticed people going through this door on a regular basis. Hmmm. It did not seem to belong to any particular business. The door to the coffeehouse, Chattz, was a different one – the one on the far left of the frame. I got tired ofContinue reading “The Hidden Door – Snapshot of the Day, No. 178”

Corner Market – Snapshot of the Day, No. 144

We have a new market/deli downtown called Enzo’s Market. It’s pretty much a combination of a vintage grocery store and a big city deli. It’s on the Southside, so it has an arty feel. I had lunch a few weeks ago with my sister-in-law and niece here. The food was pretty good if you ever getContinue reading “Corner Market – Snapshot of the Day, No. 144”
