Which photo is before and which is after? Actually they are both; these scenes will alternate over and over as further leaves fall over the next couple of weeks. Weird, just plain weird. #leaves #driveway

Valentine and Valley Girl
Many years ago Fairy and I spent Valentine’s Day Weekend in a lovely, small hotel in San Francisco. A little brown bear was doing a summersault on our bed when we entered the room, and of course, he just had to come home with us. Yes, he was for sale, and it appeared that manyContinue reading “Valentine and Valley Girl”
Seedy Character
One tree in our neighborhood has gone to seed and has attracted a band of squirrels that cling, dangle, and jump from branch to branch. Sometimes hanging from their hind legs, they reach for the most remote seeds, and occasionally end up sliding down precariously to the tip of the smallest branches, barely avoiding falling.Continue reading “Seedy Character”
Dawn Knots
The fish seem startled by the blue, knotted string of glass illuminated by the rising sun that was only recently injected between them. Are they looking for a morsel of food hiding in the maze of glass, or are they just trying discover its meaning? I wonder, if given enough time, its significance will finallyContinue reading “Dawn Knots”
Looking Down the Gunbarrel
I took these images yesterday with close ups of active region 3576 which is one of the largest spot groups to have formed in the past few years.

Bahama Bottle Lights
Lights in bottles above the bar at the Bahama Breeze restaurant in Westley Chapel, Florida, cast a golden glow on the wall and barrels while we dined. We enjoyed the meal even more than the lights and ambiance and will be returning. #bahamabreeze #bottles #lights
Tales Orange
These oranges always ripen in February, during some of the coldest time of the year. Yet, they seem to be doing well since we’ve had no hard freezes this year (yet). They remind me of a story I read in an aviation magazine several years ago. It seems that a skydiver had discovered that theContinue reading “Tales Orange”
Winter Crescent
The waning crescent moon graced the February morning sky as it faced the sun which was soon to rise. Even though the moon rose well before the sun, it was still low to the horizon, following the sun’s own path through the winter sky. #moon #crescent #sun #winter
Amusement at the Park
During a past visit to Disney’s EPCOT Center we were entertained by ibises soliciting a free meal. They found plenty to eat from spills and handouts and added greatly to the amusement of the park. #ibis #epcot #amusement
