May 12, 2017 https://www.davidroyko.com/apps/photos/photo?photoID=204035324 204035324 Sorry [snicker] Hey Donald, your overcompensation still fails -- Sears/Willis is still bigger than Trump. (And I have no doubt Richard Warren Sears's hands were a whole lot bigger than yours too.) (And probably Willis's too, whoever he is.) https://www.davidroyko.com/apps/photos/photo?photoID=203990403 203990403 Mornin' Pre dawn ice is even colder.

Want to look my best under a streetlight at 5:55am walking to the train station because you never know when you might bump into Scarlett Johansson.

Here's how it looked on what would have been Dad's 83rd birthday, September 19, 2015. https://www.davidroyko.com/apps/photos/photo?photoID=199765450 199765450 Wedding Party As seen from the stoplight at Columbus and Monroe, September 19, 2015. https://www.davidroyko.com/apps/photos/photo?photoID=199765451 199765451 In It Together A father and son at the Bulls/Pistons preseason game, October 14, 2015 (Bulls got creamed), and from the message on the front of Dad's t-shirt, we know that his lack of hair is in support of his son's chemo-induced bald noggin. Hoping he gets through it quickly, and that they were Pistons fans. https://www.davidroyko.com/apps/photos/photo?photoID=199992043 199992043 Dry Docked The massive junkyard next to the Metra tracks is a vast sea of junked cars, and one boat.

December 23, 2015. https://www.davidroyko.com/apps/photos/photo?photoID=200584424 200584424 Office Moon My window lunar view, January 20, 2016. https://www.davidroyko.com/apps/photos/photo?photoID=200819727 200819727 Donald-Critter in the Wild I spotted him from my office window, and decided to venture down for a closer look, while keeping a safe distance so as to avoid startling or provoking him, March 17, 2016. https://www.davidroyko.com/apps/photos/photo?photoID=201310385 201310385 Consolation The booby prize for Cleveland's April blizzard are scenes like this on Ben's street, April 9, 2016. https://www.davidroyko.com/apps/photos/photo?photoID=201486581 201486581 Industrial Vista I'm weirdly attracted to scenes like this one, which makes Cleveland a great city for me since there's plenty of them. Funny that this is the same neighborhood as one of Cleveland's big tourist attractions (lines for tours even in April, forget Christmastime), the house from the movie, "A Christmas Story," which, when you see it, the house tucked into a dead-end in a grungy neighborhood, you have to wonder how the movie's location scouts ever found the place and decided it was "right." And yep, the leg lamp ("major award") proudly shines in the front window. April 23, 2016. https://www.davidroyko.com/apps/photos/photo?photoID=201613163 201613163 Aqua Son of a freaking whatever, I am at an Autism benefit tonight for Have Dreams, great organization, but I finally have a chance to look over this building I have loved since I saw a documentary about it (Jeanne Gang's Aqua), and the weather is so terrible, it's covered in clouds. Behold, the Aqua building, in Chicago. Or at least, half of it. April 30, 2016. https://www.davidroyko.com/apps/photos/photo?photoID=201691976 201691976 Into the Fog Waiting for the train to pick us up on a foggy morning, May 11, 2016, 6:40AM, Deerfield Station. Everyone's facing south because the daily Milwaukee-bound Amtrak train, still clouded in the mists, is about to zoom by, tweaking our internal little kids. https://www.davidroyko.com/apps/photos/photo?photoID=201754845 201754845 Lake Fork Lake Fork, Texas, doing a nice Tahiti impression just after sunrise, May 22, 2016. https://www.davidroyko.com/apps/photos/photo?photoID=201849442 201849442 Yeah, yeah, cloud pictures from airplanes...almost as wonderful as pictures of trees. But what the heck. I liked being in between high cirrus and stormy low cumulus over Lake Michigan in the early evening, July 17, 2016. https://www.davidroyko.com/apps/photos/photo?photoID=202237154 202237154 Fun's Over 7:25 AM on the Monday after the holidays, fellow commuters line up to get off and face it, January 4, 2016. https://www.davidroyko.com/apps/photos/photo?photoID=200674079 200674079 No Hurry At the end of the Metra car is a step up. My routine is to stand at the end of the car near the end of the ride and wait the several minutes it takes for my fellow commuters to inch out until the next-to-last person is exiting before walking to the exit since I hate waiting in lines. This is one of my views. July 27, 2016. https://www.davidroyko.com/apps/photos/photo?photoID=202446067 202446067 Prefered Dork Footwear Yes, I'm afraid they are my favorite footwear. Paradoxically, they are the perfect footwear for days when you are going to be under a downpour. Yes, they and your socks get soaked, but that would by the case with any shoes. But they dry immediately, and their open-air design allows the socks to dry by lunchtime -- far quicker than with anything else besides nothing at all. However, I do have to add as a warning -- only relatively new pairs should be worn if walking on any wet surface. When the underside wears down, on wet surfaces they imitate ice on ice. My backside has learned this the hard way.

And if you stop to talk with him, get ready for an onslaught of questions and directions on getting in the express lane to heaven. (He doesn't put it that way, but I'm thinking his positioning is not a coincidence -- maybe divine guidance?)

Or Bulgarian wannabes! August 26, 2017 https://www.davidroyko.com/apps/photos/photo?photoID=204383927 204383927 Fountain Face I think Karen was conducting the Crown Fountain (aka Face Fountain) for her mom at Millennium Park, August 26, 2017. https://www.davidroyko.com/apps/photos/photo?photoID=204383928 204383928 Bikes at the Falls Chagrin Falls and bikers don't seem to go together, but they did this weekend, August 20, 2017. https://www.davidroyko.com/apps/photos/photo?photoID=204383929 204383929 Everything but the Match A bonfire that never happened at Ohio's Headlands Beach State Park, August 20, 2017. https://www.davidroyko.com/apps/photos/photo?photoID=204383930 204383930 Lighted Lights Dearborn and LaSalle on the way to the train a moment before the sun came around the corner to blind me and my fellow walkers, August 23, 2017. https://www.davidroyko.com/apps/photos/photo?photoID=204383931 204383931 Picturesque Has any city ever gotten more touristy bang for the buck than Cleveland dropping a few signs around? This one is in Edgewater Park, situated so the backdrop is Cleveland's skyline, and year round, there is ALWAYS somebody taking a pic something like this. Hey, I guess that includes me now (except for facing the wrong way).
