Electric traffic lights - SR 40, downtown Ocala

Electric traffic lights
Strung across the road
Green says you can go
Yellow cautions slow.

Red is most important for it
Means that you must stop
If you go on sailing through
You may just meet a cop!

Today's theme is "electricity." Click here to view thumbnails for all participants

Companion Animal Clinic

The lobby area of this animal clinic has been outfitted with fabric panels on the wall and hanging from the ceiling. Their purpose is to dampen the cacophony of barking dogs, screeching cats, and clamorous humans.

When is a Nook a book?


I always thought a nook was a place where you could hide away or a part of a kitchen tucked in a corner where one would sit to eat. Now I find a nook is a book. Well, sort of. More like an electronic book reader. I suppose you could take your Nook which is a book into a nook in a kitchen and sit and read your Nook in the nook.

Early spring

It's been a relatively warm winter in the Ocala area and some plants began flowering a couple of weeks ago. Then we had another hard freeze, but this beauty seems to have survived.

Directing traffic...
