Night Sounds.

Here I am sitting in the solarium listening to the crickets. It has just rained and the critters are out, There are fireflies, bats, tree frogs, and the crickets. I took a walk out in the yard, the smell of the rain and the sounds are a most peaceful feeling.
Now the sound of a Train whistle and the droning sound of the wheels on the tracks. We have tracks across the street, you can hear the freight and Amtrak train in the yard and in the solarium. Our sky is quiet no planes using our flightplan tonight. What a most glorious Night. Venus is bright and the Moon looks surprised at 3/4 full, probably because of no airplanes in view, although I am now beginning to hear them off in the distance. The airport is not far away. This city/county living is full of nature and man made things sharing the sky and ground. So, no photos to show for the darkness is too serene to disturb and the bats are too hard to capture with a Lens. So, I just continue to watch them fest on the mosquitoes and rejoice in their work!

We stayed at the Venetian Resort in Las Vegas on Our "GoWestMyFriend" Vacation.
It was very nice reminded me ,some what, of Venice. One one my favorite vacation memories.



Attached to the Canal was a large Shopping Mall called the Palozzo. This is a stained glass window in the open space.



A broader look you can see the fountain flowing from the upper floor. The stain glass windows were on both sides.

The open space was covered in umbrellas. You can see clear tubes beside them, those were rain drop the camera could not portray the action. However they did move like rain drops.


Here is the view under the rain and Umbrellas, A garden around a pool. There were a lot of them, up and down the Mall walk.All the flowers and grass were real.
