right now.
 |
| spot me on the log? (like a turtle.:) ) |
living in a valley where there are numerous bird migratory routes---
my ears,
my eyes---
 |
| the whirlbling (made that up) of sandhill cranes forces my ears and eyes to strain. this is the sound that my mom would go beserk for every spring/fall, always near the same dates. "THEY'RE HERE! THEY'RE HERE!!!!!!!!!! SANDHILL CRANES!!!! SOMEONE FIND BINOCULARS!!!! i do the same thing now. always for a moment you can hear their calls, so far up the sky these massive birds fly. they make a perfect line of birds, it pays to be outside. :) |
what a treasure
 |
| i like to think this photo sums up my life. adventure amongst the mundane. ;) |
 |
| teddy picture. |
to be outside
everyday

| even the culdesac is graced by orion |
 |
| farmer's market haul. (i don't really know what's up with link but i like it. ;) ) |
 |
| happy valentine's day to meee! |
 |
| oh, boy, gotta little lichen growing on me! <3 in the works and still healing. youch. |
 |
| if this is what life looks like then i am a lucky girl indeed. |
greeting every old flower friend,
 |
| ......paintbrushes! |
 |
| douglas iris! |
 |
| swoon---mid-february hound's tongue. these are the early bloomers. |
 |
| i knew they grew in clumps, only ever finding a few plants on my parent's property as a child. and near rattlesnake bar, the hills near folsom lake, i saw small meadows of houndstongue. it's like i fell into a faery glen. |
 |
| i think my favorite part about these daffodils is that they're the gift i re-give myself every spring, since i planted them :) |
visiting for such a flash,
our yearly wait over,
for now--
playing with new friends,
but feeling as old and
familiar as,
well,
old friends.
 |
| probably the most perfect portrait of these two: carl wears an excessive amount of denim and olivia cross-stitches. |
 |
| (...mouths "tool school?"...anywho.) link is what we'd call a hybrid: kombucha and pizza. :) |
 |
| babe alert. |
work,
and new opportunities to
define what
life looks
like--
 |
| this is why i wear a camera around my neck: look at this picture. |
 |
| i love getting handsome visitors at work. :) <3<3 |
 |
| work sunsets. :) |
to have the courage to improve
and receive more
of life's
joy.
 |
| this cracks me up. |
rain.
walking in the rain must be the most perfect
thing i have ever
done.
rebirth;
this spring.
now is the time.
