Weekly Photo Challenge: Optimistic!
I am the most optimistic when I am playing or listening to music. It is a true gift to be able to play an instrument, and it's really difficult to be depressed or anxious while playing with your group. Or listening to your husband's group! Here are a couple of pictures from our trip to …
Weekly Photo Challenge: Alphabet
This photo is, to my mind, absolutely priceless. Signboard in front of the elementary school a block from where I work. I did a double-take while driving by, and just had to stop and take a picture. Do they not teach their employees to spell any more? If the staff can't spell, are any of …
Weekly Photo Challenge: Weight(less)-Gravity
At Devil's Tower National Monument in Wyoming, the broken rocks at the very bottom started out at the top. Gravity (with the help of water) does that. Mighty mountains are turned to sand, with gravity and time. https://dailypost.wordpress.com/photo-challenges/weightless/

The priest is Polish, and there is a Polish-language Mass daily. My husband grew up not far from here, and went to this church, and graduated from the parochial high school here (now defunct). …
Weekly Photo Challenge: Treat
Once, in a previous life, I was owned by a purebred Ruddy Abyssinian cat, named Veloce. She was the only purebred cat I have ever had, and it was a treat, just to look at her. Please enjoy this visual treat, in honor of National Cat Day. https://dailypost.wordpress.com/photo-challenges/treat/National Cat Day
Weekly Photo Challenge: Happy Place
When I need to get my groove back, I like to snuggle up with a good book and a warm cat. Here's the Warm Cat part, our Aristo-Cat Kikyo, draped over my legs while I recline on my bed with an Outlander book. https://dailypost.wordpress.com/dp_photo_challenge/happy-place/
Photo Challenge: Close Up
Anywhere there can be Life, there IS Life: Even on a seemingly inhospitable surface as a granite rock, lichen and mosses grow. Nature's God fills every niche, and some niches support life, upon life, upon life. This is especially so in the Pacific Northwest, where ample rainfall encourages growth year-round. https://dailypost.wordpress.com/dp_photo_challenge/close-up/
