Lately I've been trying to decide what this blog is about and I think it is about the how happy it makes me to see the beauty in everyday life. Lately for whatever reason this has been harder. I like this photo because It captures pretty well how I am feeling right now. Everything around me is still and I am just sort of blurry. The door is open, but I'm not even going anywhere. Perhaps next will be a list of resolutions, or maybe I will just take photos of actually everything I see. Something to get me out the door.

Being Sneaky

I sat across from this man on the subway the other day and he is what I see when I think urban cowboy. The faded jeans and worn suede jacket go perfectly with reading glasses and a copy of the New Yorker. People like him make me wonder if they know that they look great, if they would even be flattered, or if had he known I was taking his picture he would have glared at me with as much disdain as he did with those damn kids listening to their loud rap music.

I can't compete with California

To:From:Climbing the dunes of Abbott's Lagoon in Point Reyes reminded me of the realities that you create for yourself as a kid. Seeing the endless expanse of sand exported me to the Sahara. In a weekend I became a world traveler to a land where the beaches never end. It reminds me of the time I drove our Previa through a lake- its ok, no one drowned.

Stormy Weather

When PG&E fails you and it is actually darker inside than outside, that is when it is appropriate to knit by candlelight.
