Contemplation

Reminiscent of the thirties;  a sand storm in Phoenix;  looks ugly. 

Reflections in the tide  pools on an Oregon beach. 



Andrea and Bob sent this picture of a cloud formation from their back yard in Prescott, Arizona;  the shape of a beautiful flower opening to the sunshine.   A picture of hope.  

Bob and Andrea have finished the bocce court and from what I hear it was a tremendous job.  They didn't have help , nor did they ask for any, and they are ready for friends and family to come and enjoy the court.  I think I heard a few groans all the way here.   Extremely  exhausting work but they survived and are ready to play.   Great job you two.  

The fog is heavy this morning leaving shadows of the trees, quiet silhouettes as there isn't a hint of a breeze.   You can 'hear' quiet.   Not a creature stirring, not a bird in sight.   It is early yet, so it will change as the dog walkers come out and folks start up to the store .   I'm thinking of taking my walker out and hike up to the barber shop and say hello to Gina and let her cut my hair.    She has been keeping it very short and I've grown accustomed to it and love the wash and wear ease in which I can even finger comb and get away with it.   

Enjoy the day.  Remember  you make your world go around.    Hugs to all.
