If I wait to take pictures so that I only capture the exciting, the memorable, the worth-looking-at, then I will never take any at all.

And so I post here both mundane and memorable, as they come my way.

Working (but not dusting)

And here are our faithful Dozers once again. The gentleman off to the right never moved the entire time I was out taking pictures.
