# 329 Transportation



These little three-wheeled vehicles are actually considered motorcycles.  According to the info I found, they  have a 26 horsepower engine, can go 65 mph, and get 60-70 mpg.  Not bad for zipping around in the city, but I wouldn't want to drive one on the interstate.

# 325 Tiny


The moon was just a tiny sliver in the sky this morning on my way to work.

# 251 Reflections


These Ring-billed Gulls seem to be unaware of their reflections in the puddle they are standing in.

# 132 Girl


My great-niece, Abigail, and her great-grandmother's dog, Brownie.

# 131 Ghostly


I was trying to get a picture of a nearly full moon the other night--I think there was a mist or fog rising from the backyard pool--I didn't realize it until I downloaded the picture.  It gave the picture a ghostly feel, I think.

# 140 Hands


I passed the Brentwood United Methodist Church while doing errands the other day and noticed this sculpture by the side entrance.  I parked and took pictures from several angles.

# 201 My Little Secret


This Snowy Egret has a secret.  Can you guess what it is?

# 259 Ride


We had to ride a four story escalator to start our tour through the River Journey building at the Tennessee Aquarium.

# 247 Rails



This sculpture, called "Rail Wave" is located outside the Tennessee Aquarium.

# 232 Playground


When I was a kid, we called these playground objects "see-saws" or "teeter-totters".  Not sure what these are called now, but they look harder to fall off of than the ones I grew up playing on--no more of the person on the other end jumping off and leaving you to land with a thud!

# 207 New York


This is probably as close to New York as I'll get this year.  I was taking a GPS detour through a section of Nashville that I'd never been through and saw this New York Deli called "Noshville".
