Special baggage wrapping service, Prague airport
2017
Ringing in the new year
2015
Happy new year from London
2013
A happy new year
To friends old and to friends new.
The stars shine brightly.
2012
Haiku on a solitary New Years Eve
Air Force Base played taps.
I unpacked and mused and read.
It's midnight somewhere.
Nearing the summit
Listening to life stories
Keeping mine private

The speaker: "eggs....sausages..."
It's 6:38.

2011
A smoker squats by
The bus stop. A jogger runs past.
I'm getting donuts.

2008
is being humiliated by scramble

2018 Landesbygda. We need this My first snow shoe lesson on the lake! Meg has given me her Honecker hat! 2016 When I'm sick, I bake Things I should not eat, such as Bacon grease brownies.

Margo Chamberlain I see Mr Fox but wouldn't have if you hadn't prompted me. My eyes were caught by Miss Bird. 2016 The same note repeated... I get lost. Where are we now? Yes, it does matter. I love to listen To the Gorecki III, but It's deadly to play. 2014 Elwha River, near Sequim.  w/ J&H 2013 Hey there Portlanders! 68 degrees and clouds Neener neener, right?! D just called to say Obama's security Almost got his knife. They scatter, then regroup, A whirling bird migration. And it makes me smile. 2009 just watched Julie and Julia.
