The hook

Jan. 12, 2013. Rainbow Park, if I'm not mistaken

Impressionist tree

Jan. 12, 2011. I believe this is the little tree between the Post Office and the outside mail dropoff box. There used to be a brick flower box at that spot, but it kept getting plowed over by bad drivers,  and the cycle of rebuilding/destroying/rebuilding got old fast. So now there's a tree in that location.

Stepping stones

Jan. 11, 2014. Rainbow Park, I think.

The couch in the woods

Apr. 8, 2012. At first, from a distance, I thought this was a hunter's blind when I saw it from First St.

The Stick House of McCleary still under construction

The smokestack as seen from First St.

Aug. 24, 2016. If Simpson ever implodes that thing, it will be a gala event. There are still a few people around who helped construct that edifice.

I'm not a Freudian, but if I were I could have a field day with this. I'm not even a Freudian who is Jung at heart.

Sometimes a smokestack is just a smokestack.

A tree grows through the Simpson fence

Aug. 22, 2016. Near Ash and 7th St.

Can you spot the rabbit on Rabbit Hill?

July 28, 2016. Since this photo was taken last month the area has been bulldozed and many trees have been cut.

Longest alley in town

Aug. 26, 2016. Looking west from Main to 10th St., between Simpson and Maple. The old "Float Barn" resided on the west end, until it was finally torn down a few years ago. On the east end we see the Union Hall on the left and the new clinic on the right.

McCleary smallpox

Aug. 26, 2016. This poor woman's face has been on display on the McCleary Post Office bulletin for at least 4 years, maybe more. Over time her nice face has been punctured numerous times by thumbtacks.

This brings to mind the disease known as "McCleary Smallpox," a disorder which is the result being stomped on by logger boots.

Just outside city limits going west

July 15, 2016. Elma-McCleary Rd.

Here come the mushrooms

What happened to the rabbits?

Aug. 26, 2016. Part of Rabbit Hill is being shaved, probably for more new houses. I didn't see any rabbits up there this morning.
