photo friday: china beach
Beach. The beach. Any beach. It has been far too long. I wish I lived as close to the beach as my sister does!!
spring on the mountain – 5 feb 2017
Saturday I was in pain from having pushed myself too hard at the gym — pulled something in my right arm. But on Sunday? Time to hit the mountain. Phelix and I tried a new-to-us section of trail; he likes new trails, but when he gets close to his trail, he *runs*. We ran into

Our final tourist attraction while in NYC – One World Trade Center. Camille is not a fan of heights, but agreed to go with me anyway …
walk in the woods.
It’s been too long. FAR too long. But today the to do list was blissfully short. The girl was in a good mood. The weather was perfect (41 and sunny). My knee didn’t hurt. So off we went. Chloe, Phelix, and I. I forced them into a small detour; I am quite ignorant of the
wilburn farm trail – 23 nov 2016
Work is a bit slow at the moment due to the holiday, so I took the time to try a new hike, the Wilburn Farm Trail. As usal, we saw no one the whole time we were out on the trail, which wound up a hill and then into the farm and past a little
cascade trail – 11 nov 2016
After a brisk and informative walk with Ranger Robby, I drove over to the Cascade Trail to try out the “Roll Project” in black and white. I love the shallow depth of field on many of these, but I think I may have overdone it.
arabia mountain – 10 nov 2016
Phelix and I went off to our happy place again today. This time we went “off trail” a bit more that usual in order to try to get a better feel for how everything fits together.
vaughter’s farm – 4 nov 2016
Homework for my Composition class at the Showcase School this week is to “take a roll” of photos. So no deleting. I gave myself one small break … If the pup pulled while I was taking a photo (as he often does), I could delete it. I tried hard to choose interesting subjects and take
photo friday: the tonys
Camille and I just happened to be in NYC on Tonys Sunday, so we stopped by the Beacon Theater to see what all the fuss is about….
around atlanta: chihuly nights
Back in August, I stopped in at the Atlanta Botanical Garden to renew our family membership so I would be all set to buy tickets for Chihuly in the Garden. First, we put off going due to the heat. Then we couldn’t find the time with Camille’s play. And then it got to the last
photo friday: grand central station
Who doesn’t love Grand Central? Even when we are not headed off on a train, we make a point of stopping in the station for the architecture, the vibe, the food, and the stores!
around atlanta: star provisions
Next stop on goal of learning more about Atlanta was Westside Provisions District and Star Provisions. We first tried to eat breakfast at West Egg, but the wait was ano hour long, so we passed on it. Instead, we wandered through the shops and got to Star Provisions, which turned out to be a perfect
photo friday: times square
Overcrowded, crazy. Some people avoid it altogether. I hate crowds too, but I always get a thrill out of seeing all the lights and the energy.
photo friday: shopping in nyc (camille style)
A few hours to kill in Manhattan. No new exhibits to see. What do you do? Shop. But shop Camille-style. Books, pens, comics.
photo friday: off (and on) broadway
When Camille and I planned our trip to NYC in June, our biggest reason for going was to see “Hadestown”! Camille was so thrilled to get to see the play in its short workshop run. And I was enthralled. Good choice. After we made plans to see “Hadestown”. we shopped around for other plays we
photo friday: katz’s deli
After visiting the Brooklyn Flea Market, Camille and I headed into Manhattan to have lunch at Katz’s Deli. As I am a vegetarian, I wasn’t expecting to eat very much; we were there for the experience. And what an experience! Crowded and confusing, with multiple lines for various foods and drinks. But Camille and I
photo friday: brooklyn flea
The Brooklyn brownstone that Camille and I stayed in on our latest trip to NYC was a block away from the Brooklyn Flea Market. Not the *big* one, but a smaller version, the Fort Greene Flea. Nevertheless, we had a lovely time exploring. I bought a new ring and Camille explored the booths, bought a
