Clerkmanifesto is going context free for 100 days!
While I retire from 31 years at the Roseville Library, sell nearly everything I own, fly with my darling wife to Japan for 40 days, and then move together to France to start to build a life there, I present a less explained clerkmanifesto, a clerkmanifesto of snapshots and time travel. Below you may see old posts without introduction from my 4,750 post collection. You may see random photos, brand new or years old. I may write a passage about Japan as if of course you know I'm in Japan, I may make a simple observation or joke, but whatever it is, I won't be explaining it. You'll have to take it as it comes.
For more context you are welcome to read this longer introduction.
And if this is all too confusing I welcome you to investigate our thousands of fully explained historic posts from the past 12 years, though I'll be the first to admit, hours later, you may still come away a little confused.
Here, however it works, is what clerkmanifesto has for you today:
Continuing along from yesterday, these are the paintings version of the recent alien invasion pictures of Saint Minneapolis. Thank goodness my wife and I are safely in Japan now!
And then here is a video version as well. I think it even has accompanying music!
If you don't know the drill: click to engage the picture, enlarge it, and then click once more to play it.
Typing on my phone is a pain, so here’s a quick intro I’ll reuse. These photos are from Kyoto, where my darling wife and I are staying. It’s sweltering, beautiful, bewildering. I take a few photos each day and edit them later while recovering at our quiet house here. No commentary then for today, I will let the pictures speak.
