Energy and It's Visual Cost
On highway 7 going from John Day, Oregon to Baker City, Oregon.
We drove over one day to visit friends while staying in John Day.
No windmills here.
Returning to Lake Oswego we drove back up highway 19 to Biggs Junction.
This is Cathedral Rock, part of the John Day Fossil Beds.

Still on Highway 19-lovely curvy road
I'd rather see this panorama ...............

Magpie 19
I had too much fun with this photo prompt-but couldn't make up my mind as to which one to use...so poem fans here are two to choose from-you tell me which one I should have chosen! And don't forget to visit Magpie Tales to see more poetry from all of us! http://magpietales.blogspot.com/
First Try
Another One
My palsy walsy
Busy as a bee
Wanted the perfect knife
To use for cheese.
He searched the cupboards
He pawed through the drawers
No little French knife
To be found, oh alors!.
Finally we remembered
The last time it was used
A picnic last weekend
and voila! there it was!
It was in my purse
I could see the slight glint
Upending my purse-I dumped it all out
Pencils, stockings, my evil eye and
ahah! there it was!
Ensnared by the wee little fish.

Magpie #18
Thanks Jingle
http://itistimetothinkformyself.blogspot.com/
Jingle is a fellow writer/poet that I first became acquainted with on Magpie Tales blog for writers. Magpie Tales was created by Willow and she dedicated this blog for "the enjoyment of writers, for the purpose of honing their craft, sharing it with like minded bloggers, and keeping their muses alive and well."
http://magpietales.blogspot.com/
Jingle not only writes and posts on Magpie Tales but also takes the time to read other's blogs and awards different blogs weekly. It's an act of kindness that takes not only thought but precious time and we all appreciate that! So- thanks Jingle for that and thanks Willow for giving all of us such a creative venue!
K is for Kale with Garlic and Bacon and another tasty recipe.....
