Dragon Eggs


Deviled dragon eggs


Fish sticks in a roe


Corn dogs and cotton candy


Snow cones and dipping dots


Karmelkorn and pretzels


Keeping lunch down...

On a Stairway to Heaven


There is always someone going up and someone going down.


Someone moving while standing still.


Someone climbing in the colors.


And someone slowed by the black and white.


Either going up...


Or, down.

For the Oh So Holy Nights of Israel


For worship


For Moslem, Christian and Jewish memory


For King David's sake


For the prayer: "Next Year in Jerusalem"


For the ever changing face of Israel



A beacon to the world - Israel


The B'hai Temple in Haifa


Rosh HaNikrah - on the Lebanese border


The Tzadikim of Torah - the guardians of continuity


In the Jerusalem market - Machaneh Y'hudah


A devout woman of valor



My people, Israel


Chayim


Menashe


Orgad


Noam


Reuven



The Ports of Israel


The Port of Jaffa


The Port of Tel Aviv


The Port of Haifa


The Port of Herzliyah


The Port of the Spirit and Soul

Spare the air - bike to work


My childhood 3-gear, all chrome, English racer was my transportation, my Indy car, my Saber Jet, and my rocket mission to the moon and to Mars.  I rode on city streets and sidewalks, in the forest preserve, to and from school and on my own Sunday drives/rides.  It was an early taste of freedom, independence and responsibility.  It was my exercise machine, my fantasy maker and my time capsule catapult.

That bike was certainly much more than a bike.

Ya aint from these parts - are ya?


You don't look like us


You don't talk like us


You don't believe in the same god as us


 You don't lack unemployment like us


This parish aint big enough for the two of us


Hasta La Vista, baby

Sailor Jerry


I'm a sailor in the Jewish Navy, 
cuddle up a little closer,
kiss me baby
