Melancholy


I'm adapting to doing 32 hours of work in 3 days. I'm even getting where I can do a few things with my photography in those three days. So my work week is done and I'm leaving for Arizona for a few days tomorrow. It's been a melancholy week for some of my patients and family. I'm doing well, but it does have me reflecting tonight on some of what happened. This might have inspired my choice of photograph to work on. This is from Bodie, a ghost town around the Eastern Sierra Nevadas. The cemetery helped to tell the story of the 10,000 individuals who once occupied the town. I found this one especially heart wrenching.

Just a bit of a reflection for them and the week, Leon Russell, "Melancholy Baby",
