(A frightening peak into my brain on Saturday as I stood in my bedroom assessing the furniture situation & then soothed my frayed nerves by watching House Hunters & a couple of design shows which only triggered more rearranging ideas. Oh and I did take some pictures. I was just too tired after this to... Continue Reading →
Friday beauty – cloud colors
Some fog off on the horizon, but otherwise everything is a brilliant, deep blue. Contrast that with the same time of day in early January when a very muggy heat wave rolled through. Rain rolls back into town this weekend - unfortunately creating an adventure for the Breast Cancer 3 Day walkers this... Continue Reading →
Much needed day off + Peregrine Falcon!
For much better quality pics of Wednesday's adventure - check out Robin's blog. Clearly that's a popular perch for them given the white streaks just under the bird 🙂 This has been a good year for them. Every time I've taken the beach route I've been able to see at least one. Someday I'll... Continue Reading →

Veteran’s Day
Thank you to all who are serving and who have served.
That’s MY spot
Today started off crappy. And by crappy, I mean, really totally OK to all rational people. I dropped off SB at school in plenty of time to miss the drop off line traffic. I was happy because I had remembered in time that there was a breakfast special in the cafe that I wanted so... Continue Reading →
