dogs gone plum crazy!

a windswept live oak against the stormy western sky

a flu's eye view...

reflections...

heading downtown...the light was fine & so i reached for the camera as D. drove on. clicking away without much attention to detail, i was surprised by the message when i checked the day's photos...

sometimes you have to be a bit creative to find your moment in the sun!

one for every year we've been together

over the lunch table our conversation stopped abruptly as the sun burst through the rain clouds

in evening light layers of fluffy pillows await the chance to hold our slumber

chilly night~ hot tea! my tuck-in beverage of choice in the winter

we had beets for dinner. as i was slicing them, i noticed the beautiful hues of red & green on the discarded tops...too beautiful to just throw away, it seemed.

faithful guardian of our front door

this morning in the kitchen as i was washing dishes, Little Man tapped my shoulder made me aware of the patch of sunlight, the only one, shining like so.

pansies from the flower box on the deck...my winter solace.

morning fog...not quite as thick as yesterday.

early morning blanket of fog...softening all nature's rough spots

a seagull's dinner dish at low tide

a mirror image sunrise from the end of the dock...i wanted to float right into the beauty of the scene.
