Subtitle: Garden not my garden. This week’s LAPC challenge is to share the beauty of gardens, whether your own garden, another’s garden, or the experience of gardening. I don’t have a garden, unless you consider 15 potted plants to be a garden, which I suppose they could be but maybe […]
As many of you know, I’m rather challenged when it comes to challenges. Since I retired, I no longer have a calendar on my wall. I’ve been using my cat Maxine’s pill dispenser to tell me what day it is. Such is the life of a procrastinator. But after coming […]
By chance I came across this website and photo challenge: https://shareandconnect.wordpress.com/2021/04/10/lapc-4/ It’s an “old” challenge in that another challenge has already been made, but I consider the find serendipitous nonetheless. Here is my colorful April: On a recent visit to Timberlane Ravine park, we found evidence of a whimsical and […]
Last Friday we went on another bike ride to the St. Marks National Wildlife Refuge. Practice makes near-perfect. I’m becoming more comfortable riding bikes which is a good thing since my knees and feet no longer want to walk the miles we used to at the Refuge. I rode bikes […]

You know the day goes by pretty fast when I affix myself in front of my computer. I was going to wax all poetic about the flowers I’ve been photographing lately, but, my, it’s late in my day. Pretty soon the four amigos will start checking in on us as […]
Freedom means: being at a grocery store without fear of being shot being at a movie theater without fear of being shot being at a concert without fear of being shot being at a nightclub without fear of being shot being at a spa without fear of being shot being […]
In the roughly two weeks I’ve been retired, I haven’t done a whole lot. I know some of you are probably rolling your eyes at that. I did say I would take a break, but even I didn’t take myself seriously. Nature did, though, so she put out the pollen–nice […]
