Throwback Thursday: this 70’s(?)-era photo of NolanKin.

I don’t even really remember how I got this photo, or how it wound up in my backup files.  I think it is from the late 70’s?

That is my dad, Robert James Nolan, when he was younger than I am now, along with my eldest sister and (I think) our first family dog, Shadow.

 



Happy Thanksgiving, all!

I hope that you have a wonderful holiday with your loved ones.

Slava Ukraini.

I never noticed this before — there is a Ukrainian flag flying at the Roanoke Valley War Memorial.

Marvel Comics.

This is me trying to channel Andy Warhol.

It is absolutely not what I meant to create with the various shots that I edited from a single original.  But the free online … collage-maker arranged them at random.

Oh, well.  It’s … still visually interesting?  (“I’m … Ron Burgundy?”)



“The Docks of Cardiff,” Lionel Walden, 1894

Oil on canvas.
