It was a pleasure to welcome a new day.
It is good to be alive.

. . . being a dog in our home. Sometimes you have to sleep on the back of the couch.
Although I copyrighted this photo, Faye gets all the credit for taking it.


I was fortunate to be outside when this faint rainbow appeared this morning, otherwise I would have missed its subtle beauty.


While reviewing and archiving photos, came across this, one of the first photos of Stella way back in 2004, who has gone on ahead. It seemed to be worth sharing.

Our golden girl.

The three Chocolate Cherry Tomatoes we planted have been more successful than we anticipated. We have picked more than a dozen pints’ worth so far and have many more pints’ worth on the way.
WordPress is not allowing me to upload the photo. Imagine a jungle of three plants, six feet tall by six feet wide. Imagine crawling on elbows and knees into the jungle, looking for ripe tomatoes. This is the happy problem we have.
