From a Pasadena street.

this was the BudaBoard (aka BuddhaBoard?) at the gift shop. I do like the fact that the whole thing disappears in a few minutes.

Ice cream, followed by
A visit to the local

Day 5: last day for 3 positive posts, but I just may keep this up, at least in my own home...
1. Friends who know how to bring healing
2. A field full of entertaining prairie dogs
3. Really yummy crock pot cookery (that someone else put together)


Day 4: three more positive things...
1. Playing violin trios.
2. Talking with loved ones
3. Being alone

Teen in wife beater
Seeks "Marcus Aurelius."
(Is that a rapper?)

Seriously, many years ago I spent a long time trying to find Machiavelli for a politely perplexed teen who was looking for Tupac Makavelli. So I take nothing for granted. This guy said it was a book about law and walked out with a thick biography. Good enough.

Curtains move gently.
The swamp cooler Is grumbling.
I am not asleep.

Now that I've reported my credit cards lost, I'm hoping my wallet will turn up. Altho, I wouldn't mind getting a better picture for my license.

Slept away the weekend except for the little trip to the Mac Store, all hail the help desk! ( Oh, and making peach gelato.) Now at work, talking to tech folks. I sense a pattern..

2019 Droitwich Appeals that succeed: Who could resist this sweet face? Plus, it stops the barks. This is a public footpath, leading straight to the Hadley Bowling Green Inn, my walk’s destination At this point the path disappears: I take the tractor road skirting the field I was covered in tiny burrs after pushing through this hedge Here I get locally made ice cream I take the road back Droitwich flowers Sweetest scent ever climbing a British hedgerow 2018 I’m buying ice cream “Thank you for eating healthy” The cashier tells me. Progression of a storm: we watch clouds piling up, enjoying the play of light on the rocks. Back at the library, we hear the rain and thunder. Then....hail?! And a heavenly scent of bruised plants. My poor Forester is out in it, hood open to keep the pack rats at bay. Minor flooding. So far. It’s been going on for an hour. Ice is melted, but rain pours down still. So much for sunset kayaking. 2017 See separate post for all the Huntingdon Garden pix.  I...

I'm not watching golf. Old boy Chip and I Both wanted to doze inside. Young pup dragged us out. At the cricket pitch, Modern day circle of stones On the windy hill. The hill ponies leave, So we take a look around. It's a bit smelly. 2015 Taos hosts Meow Wolf Spider: Market behind him, Striding towards Taos Mountain; Can't he smell chilis? 2014 For a year I've passed a rustic sign, posted on Hwy 14: "Potter, 400 yds," with an arrow pointing west. Finally followed the arrow, and discovered New Mexico's Best Potter for 2014. Wonderful work, both art sculptures and functional pieces.
