Wordless Wednesday - Almost

this is called Rush Hour.   You can tell it's "old" - nobody is looking at a cell phone
just a cool sculpture at the Nasher in Dallas
Me - ready for Dallas Stars ice hockey.  I'm wearing Ray's retro shirt from Daryl Sydor...trust me, it's old.  But he was a damn good skater/fighter/etc.  The Stars were a bit lackluster for the game we saw.


And finally - on Netflix - watch  Period. End of Sentence.  It is a 30 minute short documentary that won the Oscar.  Trust me...it's very thought provoking.

And on National Geographic channel - watch Free Solo - the Oscar winning long documentary feature. Holy Cow.  I hope you have a big screen TV to appreciate El Capitan in Yosemite, and the fact that this young fellow climbed it WITHOUT a rope.  OMG

That's it for Wednesday - Ash Wednesday.  What are you giving up? 
Me - nothing........I'm no saint.  I'm giving up on this week and waiting for the weekend!

    Had to chuckle at the cell phone comment.

      Oh and he had his own shirt - a more current year. Mine was the retro one. We are a sport family!

    Same here about cell phones.

    We were at Yosemite last October and saw two climbers. One had his "tent" hanging on the face. Free climbing--his mother must have hated that hobby.

    Definitely NOT watching the Free Solo. When I catch snippets of people doing things like that it freaks me right out!!! Hope you are well, Joanne!

    Thanks for the chuckle. Good observation about the absence of cell phones in that sculpture. I wonder if we'll ever get back to the good ol' days where people are actually looking around instead of looking at their handheld gadgets...

    Do those "free" climbers have a death wish? Yipes. The climbing is scary enough without losing the safety ropes.
