Whatever jumps out at me, I'll share here. Sometimes inspirational, sometimes funny, sometimes horrific, sometimes questionable... (like NSFW questionable, but that won't happen very often).

Don’t you just HATE when that happens?! #artist #painting #lol #humor (as seen on #introvertsunplugged on Facebook) https://www.instagram.com/p/B9enNewhKtN/?igshid=2rzfh4hc8xsq

A few days ago, I saw this moment where the #crescentmoon appeared to be resting on a bed of #clouds, looking up at #mercury as it faded into the impending #sunrise. Those are the #strange and #beautiful moments in #nature that I live for. How lucky we sometimes are to be in these random moments... #moonporn #cloudporn #latewintermorning (at North Hampton, New Hampshire) https://www.instagram.com/p/B9QpECzBEQK/?igshid=ilftppzf5sry

I know others are talking about #billieeilish and her big wins at #grammys2020 but, for me, today is about two of my absolute favorites: @sarabareilles and @ladygaga 😍 Sara won her first much-deserved #grammy after seven other nominations (robbed multiple times in my opinion) and Gaga took home two more awards for her work on #astarisborn (the gift that keeps on giving). I couldn’t be more thrilled for both of them. Many congrats, ladies! 😊😍 #music #singersongwriter #grammys #grammyawards #sarabareilles #amidstthechaos #sainthonesty #ladygaga #illneverloveagain (see first comment on Instagram) https://www.instagram.com/p/B71KAcbBRZc/?igshid=q9ve2p0a08xk

Another favorite #statue from #bonaventurecemetery in #Savannah - they call this one #shellgirl but she’s really more of an #angel 🌟😍 (at Bonaventure Cemetery) https://www.instagram.com/p/B7PCQKcB5PV/?igshid=o9dwwwu3g56p

A bit of #bonaventurecemetery in my home... #birdgirl has arrived! It’s amazing how much she looks like the original (which I just saw at #telfairmuseums in #savannah). This is beautifully done and entirely worth every single penny. #sylviashawjudson #sculpture #statue #art #midnightinthegardenofgoodandevil #johnberendt #potina #briancaldwell (at North Hampton, New Hampshire) https://www.instagram.com/p/B7H2Hj5hO4D/?igshid=fum4548qx9ns

Originally known as #birdgirl by her creator, later called #littlewendy by the Trosdal family who placed her on their burial plot at #bonaventurecemetery, made famous by the almost #southerngothic #truecrime nonfiction book by #johnberendt titled #midnightinthegardenofgoodandevil, and later moved to the #telfairmuseums in #savannah #georgia, this 50-inch-tall bronze #statue has a very interesting history. An artist named #sylviashawjudson from #lakeforest #illinois was commissioned to make this for a family in #massachusetts - unknown town - as a garden statue. Someone else in Lake Forest as well as someone in #washingtondc requested the Bird Girl as well. Finally, the Trosdals of Savannah wanted one for themselves. Judson left the copyright to her daughter, Alice Hayes, when she passed away in 1978. Alice fought copyright infringement until her death in 2006, trying to prevent horrible knockoff versions of her mother’s art. Before she died, she made arrangements with an artist named #briancaldwell of #potina company in #charlottenorthcarolina to ensure the integrity of her mother’s work would remain intact. Potina is now the sole creator of Bird Girl replicas as well as replicas of other statues by Judson. That said, I’ve ordered an authentic Bird Girl replica of my own a few weeks ago and they’ve finally finished making it. It arrives tomorrow! 😃😃😃 (at Telfair Academy) https://www.instagram.com/p/B7D1uG6BIc5/?igshid=1aw7d14nha51a

I think I took about 125 pictures between #staugustine and #savannah so far. The quickest way to make them available was to upload them to my #flickr account so I hope that’s okay for now... #savannah2019withma #savannah2020withma #travel #vacation #georgia #florida #lafayettesquare #fountain (Today is gorgeous, cool, #sunny #weather so we’re heading to #hiltonheadisland and #bonaventurecemetery and #tybeeisland - we’ll see how that goes.)

Greetings from Lafayette Square in Savannah! This is my final #selfie of the #2010s, taken in front of this beautiful #fountain earlier today... What an incredible place! I’ve taken so many pics already. Wishing everyone the best of New Years as we race into the next Roaring 20s. #newyearseve #newyear #2020 #savannah #georgia #gaysofinstagram #instagay (at Lafayette Square, Savannah, Ga) https://www.instagram.com/p/B6w7dltBO1i/?igshid=q0ifwf1d4fbh

BTW, these (there are four photos) are 100% #unfiltered (I only filter selfies because #godknows how much I need it)... it’s so rare to be in the #rightplace at the #righttime. I walked around the neighborhood near the laundromat to try for some perfect shots when I realized we were being #blessed with an amazing #sunset 😍 #palmtrees #staugustine #staugustineflorida #anastasiaisland #cloudporn #sunsetporn #orange #pink #miracle #nature #love #savannah2019withma ♥️♥️♥️ (at Anastasia Island) https://www.instagram.com/p/B6t-ObThmYm/?igshid=17b8bnfmtgtzo

I couldn’t just sit there and watch the #washingmachine nor did I want to scan Facebook so I just looked for things that spoke to me and #snap 🙂 #laundromat #laundryroom #staugustineflorida #staugustine #random #waitingformylaundry #waitingforgodot #waitingforagirllikeyou #waitingforastartofall #vacation #savannah2019withma (at The Laundry Room) https://www.instagram.com/p/B6t8Ig3BJvc/?igshid=wyf0s981iz3m

I took a picture of the #impeachmenthearings (on my TV) to capture the apparent sedation of the gentleman on the lower left... what I ended up with, though, is possibly the worst album cover ever. Doesn’t it look as if #maxinewaters is peering over #ambien guy’s shoulder? #adamschiff #congress #government #impeachment #shitshow #donaldtrump (also, I think #dougcollins is trying to get an #oscar nomination) #republican #democrat #drama https://www.instagram.com/p/B6O3riIBQdC/?igshid=a7lahwct0b9y
