    … funny how little things can trigger memories from days gone by … days that were rich in love and beauty and are firmly in the past never to return, but then there is the present beauty captured today and which fleshed out the beauty and richness of today. Such was the experience down at the ponds this afternoon; not much flying except for insects, the ducks were laying low taking in the warm sun before the coolness of winter arrives. On the far pond there were hundreds of butterflies feeding on a flowering plant of some sort and I spent about fifteen minutes trying to get shots I was happy with and I did get about ten shots out of 60+ I really liked. Shooting with the 5Ds R so didn’t have the speed in continuous shooting, but it was fun. After a while some fond memories washed over me and I reflected on the moment and other moments … life is good and a gift of today to be treasured and remembered.

    A quiet day; removed the EFIS from the instrument panel and sent it in for repairs, the trip to the ponds and when I got back I decided to resume an old practice of sitting on the deck, camera in hand and hope for predator shots. First though I decided to put out fresh feed for the birds and left my camera on the kitchen table, got a coffee can full of seed and went out to fill the feeder. As I was dumping the seed in the feeder a very healthy bobcat sat looking at me about ten feet away; I asked him to wait while I got the camera and he kinda did and I got some not so great photos of him, but will do better the next time. Relaxed evening talking to family and friends and here we are putting the wrap on another day.

    Enjoy the day now underway … remember the beauty and joy that has filled your life in days gone by and focus on that which you see and experience today because that is all there is … keep breathing and share the joy you find in life with others each new day.

    Cheers

    Ted

    is patient where the way is hard, has faith when he does not understand, and carries
    into the dark places the light of a cheerful heart.

    Analyzing City’s Legal Right to
    Ban OHVs on Public Roads

    By Tommy Acosta
    Mea Culpa! Mea Culpa! Mea Maxima Culpa! I screwed up. Blew it. Totally made a fool of myself. Missed the boat. I am talking about my editorial on the OHV fight, No Legal Traction on OHVs. I assumed that it was ADOT that would make a decision on whether the city could legally ban off road vehicles from our public roads like S.R. 89A and S.R. 179. Man was I off. ADOT has nothing to do with allowing or disallowing the city to do so. ADOT’s response to me when I asked them to clarify their position, was curt and to the point. “ADOT designs, builds and maintains the state highway system,” I was told. “It is not our place to offer an opinion on how state law might apply in this matter.” It was a totally “duh” moment for me when I realized that that the decision or judgement on the OHV ordinance, would involve the state and not ADOT. Chagrinned I stand. The crux of the matter then is whether the city can effectively use a number of standing state laws that can be interpreted to determine whether the city can legally ban the vehicles or not.
