27Jun2025 - This is turning into a journal/journey-down-memory-lane thing. I'm looking through my old photo albums, and at the same time, other memories and thoughts are popping up in my mind. This is what old(er) people do, yes? 9May2025 - I decided to leave FB, and just share my photos etc here. Thank you to the special people who check in here...(7Dec2022 - crlazlo meanderings 2 is now 2.1 - I will continue to use it as a preview/workspace for my FB posts, but I will also start organizing the many photos from my retirement years, and also start a journal/memories thing. That's the plan anyway.)

I took some Jeepney photos the other day while I was waiting for one of the parades to start. It will be a sad day when they phase out these older Jeepneys. I understand the issues with climate-change, but as an artist/craftsperson, it's sad. Filipino Jeepneys are so unique and special: the colors, the family and vehicle names, the religious and pop icons painted on them, on and on. I won't miss my duck walking and bending my head down when I get into one of them, and most of the window openings are below my eye level. The newer busses that are being introduced now have large windows, and I can actually stand up in them, but what are we giving up?
