visual irony

What can I say, I've always been drawn to the visual irony.





I took this in March of this year. We were still off, in terms of snowpack -- an indicator here of drought -- but if you check out the top of the sign, it is normally 12' tall. This was taken just north of Vail in Aspen Canyon. I have this on another site where I am a mod.

I've been reading a lot of blogs lately, and I find them a compelling form of comunication that is intensely personal that moves into a sphere that is utterly public. I have kept an online journal for two and a half years, but its in a format that is locked in and not very flexible. I like how this looks, and it seems idiot-proof, which works for me. Also, friends at work, including students, know my user name at the other site, so I want to move these ramblings here, under a different user name, so I maintain some privacy.
