Giant Cyclops in the Snow on Carson Street

Family, friends and neighbors suggest pictures for me to shoot.  Tess said, “Ruthie, you have to get a photo of the giant Snow Cyclops!”  But he was over on the South Side and for 9 days I wasn’t driving anywhere.

Thursday night I left the Art Institute downtown and headed for Book Club on Josephine Street, and there he was waiting for me. Not melted yet!   Deep and dirty piles of snow so nowhere to park. Pulled into the bus stop, pushed the flashers button.   Got out of the car completely, careful of traffic on Carson Street, and felt like photographer on assignment.  Self-imposed!   Thanks Tess. Kyklops Tattoo for all your tattoo needs!

The temperature rose today so I was lucky to catch him before he started to melt

Snowing again.  Late afternoon walked/trudged down Grafton Hill to the Smiling Banana Leaf for Vegetable Pad Thai takeout, the Walnut Market a couple of packages of frozen chopped spinach to make a pie & Breadworks bread. This little guy caught my eye.

Good thing there was a red wall so the flakes could be seen.
