All the BGF’s & dog have been cooped up.
We stayed home.
Some restrictions have been lifted, under certain conditions.
Happy to say, I am back in action in my beloved alleys, and observing conditions.

This post is dedicated to Drew, The Lonely Author!
Lonely, as I like to call him, has been resting up in the Dominican Republic. After a couple of heart attacks, he now awaits surgery.
Restless, I went for an alley walk (no problem keeping social distance in the alleys) and was rewarded with 3 fab garage doors. The moment I laid eyes on this painting, I thought of Lonely.
I have no idea what he looks like, but I know how he feels to me. Lonely is an incurable romantic, and that fact is reflected in his well written & passionate poetry. The colours in this art are like all of the colours, from the various moods, in his poems.
I don’t know what the artist meant by the bleeding purple heart, but that’s Lonely, to me. His heart leads his way. It seems like this image, was painted especially for him.
So join me in wishing Lonely a big GET WELL SOON! After all, he needs to get back to his series “Inspiring Woman Of WordPress”. He was only 2 dedications into the series, when he became ill. I am grateful to have been one of the two.
I picked this song out for you, Lonely. I hope you like it!

an imperfect flower (For All Women) is the poem Lonely dedicated to me. If you click on the pic below, you can read it. 
Lonely said he would be doing a health update post soon! I’m keeping my eyes open for it!
I’ve posted similar Kizmet 32 faces before.
These ones were driving me crazy. I would always see them driving by. No way to take pics.
Then suddenly one day, I saw it parked.

Bye for now!
This sweet mural by Nick Sweetman, is an awareness tribute,
… to some of the most important pollinators on our planet.
The mural turns 3 corners. I will do my best to show it left to right. The above shot was taken from across the street. Cars, vans, trucks and busses dominated 19 of the 20 shots I took.
I used pano for this. It captures the zig-zag of the 3 walls.
I did a sideways pano for the above pic.
Spring is 4 weeks away!
The car wasn’t much of a problem, 
.. and I grabbed a couple of window reflection shots.

Gi! I found a pink mouse & thought of you!
I had to move a large garbage can, but put it back when I was finished. Looks like the raccoons beat the mouse to the treats!
