Good Kitty
What started as decorations to hang from the ceiling in my father's room when he had dementia became favorite toys of my cat. She somehow found several of them and busies herself carrying them from room to room. I sometimes would come home from work and find them carefully arranged at the front door to greet me as I arrived. While v was ill she would line them up next to his side of the bed. We considered them cat charms by then. One morning, recently, I found one placed on my chest as I awoke. I took it as a kind of blessing, or cheering up gift.
We have many forms of friends, and angels come in many guises.

Lavender Harvest
Lavender harvest time.
Plenty of time for a second bloom. It always looks better at this stage instead of left to blow out. I don't take it all at once anyway, too heartbreaking to remove such a display.
It might be therapeutic, but being in the garden without v is so so hard.
What I'm finding that helps the most is just walking miles and miles...

Life on Earth
Chambered Nautilus.
This is what I love about looking at the surface of the sea...imagining what might be just below the surface and beyond. It's all so very precious and so very vulnerable, as are we all. What can we do to protect them and ultimately ourselves?

New Friends
A chance shot and new friends. Above is my favorite shot from the winter band concert at Monterey Peninsula College. Tonight when I went to shoot their spring concert I was greeted like an old friend from several of the band members. r is a retired physics teacher and plays the baritone sax for the band. Thank you v for getting me this camera!

Studio Cat
I'm not always alone, once in a rare while she keeps me company in the studio/shop. We listen to baseball while I work around her.

Breezes
It doesn't always work
Then I take a nap
And sometimes the color comes back.
