When all you have is a hammer everything looks like a nail, they say. When all you have is an axe, everything looks like a choppable tree.

It was a lumberjack kind of a small mountain town so lots of people had this affinity and such sights were only to be expected. And still, this one was an unexpected surprise that made me laugh.
The slightly defocused background is still readable enough and kind of tells a lot about the environment. The old automobiles, the mosaics on the facade, the streets in need of maintenance, the fences, the wires, the gloomy autumn morning mood...
It was one of four or five mornings that I used to tramp around a bit in discovery mode...and such little jokes of are always to be appreciated.
It was way better than the vending machine coffee on that morning for sure. There were better coffee vending machines in town, as my short but concentrated experience there would teach me...but such was not that morning's chance.
The banitchka breakfast was nice, though. It's thin sheets of baked dough folded around some cheese. A classic. A national classic but especially strong in terms of childhood associations to mornings during holidays in small mountain towns.
Peace and woodcraft!
Yours,
Manol
