Studies in stripes, Praha
Graphics! We pay to pee, and security walks around with a ferociously barking Alsatian wearing a metal cage muzzle. I do not take his pic, and I worry about my CBD lotion.

Taking care of Walter.  Wits End Co-op
I have been sitting
Under a cat. He's eating
And it's time to leave.
I'm impressed by folks
Who can translate rabbit tracks.
Were they at a dance?

My aunt's husband has been placed on hospice. I wish I could be with her: she feels so lonely and sad. Please, send healing thoughts to them both.

The lights are lovely
But it's 36 degrees.
My ears get quite cold.
Casa Rodena...
The wine is so-so, but the
Ambiance is great!
2012
Cottonwood forests,
Wheeling raptors, distant hills:
The trip has commenced.

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.

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.
