The seasons sure are a changin’ (well as much as they can in SoCal). Last night the cool air and winds hit. Today is more of the same. Leaves, sand, and dead palm branches are scattered everywhere.
I’m not sure where these images originated. (If any of you find a source, please let me know, and I will reference it.) What you are seeing is an installation at the The Museum of Communications in Frankfurt, a heard of sheep created from recycled telephone cords, headsets, and entire phone bodies!
Think the simulated wool is cool, look at the heads and feet!
