Zen Monday: Intersection

Your thoughts on a road?

I almost forgot Zen Monday was today. Thanks for the reminder,
Lydia. The Cook Books post will appear tomorrow, on a day when they're open!

This dirt is very nice...a place I would like to go.
Yesterday's photo was equally inviting. I don't know what it is about these daily photo places(it must be the photos) but is so much fun traveling there. Thanks Petrea!

Looks like Auzenne's a family name: http://tinyurl.com/6pn7zl

Ancestry.com says: "[T]ogether with the variants Ozenne and Ozanne, this is a Louisiana name. The progenitor seems to have spelled it Ozanne, and to have come from St. Lo, Normandy, France, in 1726. This form would suggest a derivation from the medieval female personal name Hosanna."

But that road's a hillbilly washboard. I thought you Pasadenamanians were classier than that.

All roads lead to Rome....

I like the way your mind works :)
Good photo, Petrea...

Petrea Burchard said...

I like the travel, too, Lily.

Very cool info, Bernie. And Pasadenamites come in all types like anybody else.

US-E, Poet-ree.

I didn't even notice the ZENNE, Kim! I'll email you.

David: Ahhh.

Rose: I like the way your mind plays! Thank you.

Clever way of getting ZEN into the (ahem) picture!

What a lonely looking place! We all need to find forgotten corners from time to time....

I was also thinking of "where the sidewalk ends " by Shel Silverstein. Very Zen photo you have here.

Katie said...

Looks like a great place to hike. Very calm and scenic. Another wonderful photo!! It would be a good zen Monday photo even without the perfect sign!

Petrea Burchard said...

Here's how zen it was, Louis--I didn't even know I was doing it.

knoxville girl, isn't it funny how we think when the sidewalk ends we should stop, too?

Thanks, Katie. Now to find something else like it!

Thank you all for your comments. I think the purpose of Zen Monday is to put up a picture, say as little as possible, and see what you all come up with.

AAAUUUUUMMMMMMmmmmmmmmmmm …

Looks like a street sign in the middle of nowhere. Incredibly interesting and makes me want to know more ...

Re: "having a life", certainly the posting of a daily photo is challenge enough some days, yet the daily rounds is sometimes not possible. Life does indeed get in the way :) Thanks for making time to visit my blog!

Petrea Burchard said...

True, Chuck. I like to at least check in with the people who so kindly check in with me. On my best days, I get to see a blog I've never seen before and meet someone new.

checking in and finding zen!

Lydia said...

Petrea, I hope you will forgive me for not viewing Zen Monday until Where-is-this-week-going?-Wednesday!
I actually woke up Monday morning with the happy thought that it was Zen Monday. The road looks like a wonderful place to scuff along mindlessly. I am ashamed that I didn't pick out the zen in the sign, but that is really something!

Petrea Burchard said...

Come any time, Gerald. Only Mondays will you find zen!

Lydia, imagine how silly I felt when the "zen" in the sign had to be pointed out to me by Kim! I didn't see it, either.
