if it takes forever... by summerfield

if it takes forever...

i'm digging the old songs (figuratively, literally and slangily) as there's no particular challenge i'm in, so i'm making my own challenge at least until my departure.

at the waterfront once again - there's really nowhere interesting i can go at lunchtime - taking in the changing colours of the trees. there's a man who's huddled on the bench just staring out at the water. he doesn't look like he's a homeless person, in fact he's dressed quite well and his coat is decent. he just sits there as the cold wind assaults him. (this is sooc but for the framing and name tag which i can't find with my naked eyes.)

trying to finish off my packing. went to the storage to get my other suitcase with my summer clothes. reached home, opened the suitcase, nada summer clothes. suitcase contains christmas decoration. so now the search for the missing summer clothes is on.
what a pretty view! great comp. hope your luggage woes get sorted out without too much difficulty!

i can't find your name anywhere and i always look for it because you are so clever with placement. perhaps it is with your clothes? i am beginning to think my brain farts are catching- OH MY! your photo today is so beautiful - i would sit on a bench by the water, too, if i lived there. you would be catching photos of me, yakking to that man!

@catsmeowb - yup, finally found it, between the two trees on the left on the grass. found the summer clothes, too - in a small suitcase underneath the bed. and i said i searched everywhere. nothing else underneath there but perhaps i didn't bend lower to look. haha! thank you, camille.

Pretty view and lovely coloured trees. I think you should just wear the decorations on your trip instead :)

This shot makes me think of California Dreamin' (even though the sky's not grey and it's not winter!) Very pretty.
