A day for a walk

Today would be a wonderful day for a walk on the beach. I just may do that.



I hope all is well in your world.

Rainy days and Mondays

Good Morning, It is raining here which means I will likely be home most of the day today. But it is supposed to be 85 and sunny on Thursday. I always look forward to flip-flops and swimsuits.

Yesterday we went to the The Los Angeles County Arboretum & Botanic Garden.



Check out their website (check it).

"Occupying the heart of the historic Rancho Santa Anita, The Los Angeles County Arboretum & Botanic Garden is a unique 127 acre botanical garden and historical site jointly operated by the Los Angeles Arboretum Foundation and the Los Angeles County Department of Parks and Recreation and located in the city of Arcadia. Home to plant collections from all over the world, including many rare and endangered species, The Arboretum also houses outdoor historical landmarks representative of the major phases of California history."

It is a wonderful place to spend a day, take photos and walk alongside Peacocks.

Love this video

"Who are these people who've got a problem with LA? Maybe they're just mad they don't live here."

I hope all is well in your world today.

Like my view?

Good Morning, today's photo is of my back or kitchen window. I love how the light filters in. As you can see, I am now collecting antique glass insulators. I love the way they catch the light. They also come in so many shapes and sizes.

Hope your day is going well and you are spending it how you'd like.

Hello again Hello

I have had a beautiful Left Coast morning. Coffee, listening to music while I read the paper. I have two kittens looking at me as if to say, "Could I please order the salmon?"

Here is a photo of the day.

Happy 2012

So much has gone on since I last posted. I hope all is well with each of you and you are looking forward to a happy 2012.

I have created a new website to show some of my photography. Please take a moment and see what you think. Its growing each day as I go through all the images I have taken over the years.
