Always Leave 'em Laughin'

Dashing to catch a bus in a "colourful" part of Vancouver, I noticed this intriguing scenario unfolding across the street from my bus stop.



I had just enough time to get my camera out and catch this one shot before my bus pulled up and I had to clamber on.  They seemed to be having a great lark and it was obviously pre-planned.  I love it that the rocket guns match the yellow and red paint on the wall.  And isn't the guy's smile just precious?  He looks like a jolly Buddha.  And how about the little skull and crossbones icon on the photographer's cap?  I felt like getting this picture was a  gift from the universe to me that day.


The following photo's not in any way related to the previous one, except that the store's name tickled my funny bone.


Talk about being in "Danial"!

I can just imagine the cell phone conversation going on inside that store when the wife phones hubby to ask him where he is. 

 "So where are you?"  
"I'm in Danial."
"Yeah, I know that already, but where are you geographically?!"

****


Well, I can't be in denial any longer.  I'm having a problem with my left eye that is greatly affecting my vision so I think I'll probably have to refrain from blogging for a little while.  Nothing serious, I'm told, but something to "keep an eye on" (pardon the pun).  My sight is full of black squiggly lines, and loops, and patchworks, and networks...rather like the textures I sometimes apply to my photos or paintings.  It's supposed to clear up over the next few weeks.  Let's hope so!  Meanwhile, if you notice me by my absence, you'll know why.

Hopefully see you soon, though--and clearly.
