I checked, and I can't find any place where dessert and desert happen at the same time. So I thought I'd highlight a little of both. Multiple times, we have gone to Arizona for Hillsdale College National Leadership Seminars. Of course, much of the state is desert, so it's really simple to take photos of …

I'm definitely not a professional photographer, so none of my photos have been published, except right here on my blog. And it's really hard to choose favorites, since everything I post here is a memory, and brings back to life places I've been. My first favorite photo is especially meaningful, since I took it on …

Welllll... Let's see what we can come up with with the final letter L. How about some Seagulls? This guy really just posed for me. My favorite-waterfall. They are in New York, Olympia, Washington, and Snoqualmie, Washington. How about a mural, or two? They are in North Bend, Washington, and Hilo, Hawaii. There is a …

In my back yard, I have a little hydrangea bush. Here are three photos of my plant in three different stages of flowering. Emerging, on July 7. Still emerging, on July 17. And today, in full bloom. Here's the Link to Cee's FOTD post for today.
I'm pretty sure that most of my readers, if not all, are going through a heat-wave right about now. You may be wondering how to cool off, when the outside temperature rises into the 90s. So I have gotten together a bunch of photos, of lakes and rivers, to help you get through the sweltering …
Since we have been married (2003), Hubby and I have taken five big road-trips. In 2006, I played with my local orchestra at Carnegie Hall in New York (summers there have slots open for student and amateur orchestras to play for the local audience-our concert got standing ovations). After the concert, we rented a car …
Unlike Tina, I don't have access to Photoshop or any photo-editing program except for what comes with the Mac OS in Photos. I did have some fun with a photo I took yesterday, in a walk through a forest preserve. I tried to make it somewhat sinister. At a local park by a lake, I …
Summer time, and the living is easy. Right? Summer is when many people go on vacations, the kids are out of school, and there are no heating bills (but there are cooling bills!). Heat doesn't agree with me, so summer is not my favorite season of the year; but we have gone on some great …

With all the gloom and doom, and BS going around these days, it's time for something sunny and optimistic. Let's search the archives for some sunny photos. A sunny day along the Clark Fork River in Montana. The sunny side of the street, in Cape May, New Jersey. The late-afternoon sunny beach at Deception Pass. …
Red is my favorite color. In fact, I finally got the chance to have a red house! In our complex, with its detached condos, we get re-painted every five years or so, and we were up last year. I finally got the "barn red" I've always wanted, and we get lots of compliments. It sure …
