2019
A&w is 100 years old! Still the best, still a drive up (in some places)
Idaho barns etc
Outdoor tin work
Mouse hole?
The door handle has attitude
Wood rejects paint
We trespassed for this one....
Sod barn
This was a solid structure on an odd-shaped parcel, surrounded by parking lots, on the outskirts of Idaho Falls. What is it?!
I caught this on a CELL PHONE!!!
2018
Tonight we watched our moon
2017
This was a huge leaf: SF Botanic Garden, GG Park
SF Botanic Gardens: really red branches
Seated on Andy Goldsworthy sculpture, outside the DeYoung
Being a pterodactyl at the CA Academy of Science
Me and Ghiradelli: the perfect match
He says fish pee here,
But my feet are very tired:
The toes must immerse.
On an old ferry: historic ships national park
Outside the Asian Art Museum, prepping for the flower power Summer of Love exhibit
Interactive art in UN Plaza
Calder at SFMOMA sculpture terrace
Yerba Buena Park?
Eco roof at CA Academy of Science
I love napkin folds.
The shirt fold is new to me.
Now I must learn it.
CA Academy of Science
Commuting from SF
CA Legion of Honor
Sailing on the Alma
DeYoung
It's not Chihuly
Nor yet SanFran Botannic,
But it's quite lovely.
2014
On starting a proof-reading business.....

It's not a good time:
Mercury's in retrograde.
I'll do it later.

While I was away,
The cholla flowered. She says,
"They think they're roses."
Clouds, then a downpour,
Then a hot afternoon sun.
We slap at the flies.
They pat down my braid
At airport security.
I do not feel safe.

2013
The first love apple
From my solitary plant.
Anticipation!

2019 Waiting for the shadow to move Motel nursery: They wanted to be with Mom (It may freeze tonight) #crazyjuneweather 2016 Streaks of lightning Bisect the skies while the winds Bring the scent of sage. 2015 Wild plants wild medicine class One of these puffballs Is part of a huge mushroom. I made eggless quiche. It's water hemlock , A deadly poison. The horse Nibbles around it. 2014 They mated, hatched and flew. The left-behind shell still clings. It's a metaphor. 2010 The dam was breaking, We sought high spots. I wake, fogged. Perched, the cat's grooming. The bus commute is So much more pleasant today. School's....out...for...summmer!

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...

2020 There is no sorrow That can’t be soothed by a fire And a hammock chair 2019 White Sands Early sandy morn A deep stillness swallows sound I see a small fox 2017 "it's just a bad ball," Comments the calm, quiet voice. 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.
