I haven’t Forgotten You, My Friends …

It’s been a crazy ride the last few months …most of the time, I have just hung on for dear life or thrown my hands up and screamed …sometimes melted into a little puddle on the floor …but not that often🙃 With the holidays over …visiting friends and relatives departed …a close friend with a […]

I Came. I Saw. I Fell in Love.

History. Powerhouse Politicos. Suited and Booted Lobbyists. Ugggggg…yet, I couldn’t help myself …I fell in love with the city … “Tunnicliff’s Tavern is a popular Hill watering hole that has been a local favorite since the early 1980s. Its name, however, has a much longer history reaching back to before Washington was the capital of […]

One of the funniest occurrences that I seem to encounter frequently is that I’m always getting the tail end of things… But…wonderfully not at every photographic encounter…

Into the Garden…

The last few weeks have been a swirl of busyness and emotion…and with no forest within walking distance…into the garden I went…well, it’s really just the back yard😉…but it is my own personal Garden of Eden…green and full of nature’s soothing balm for my soul… “And into the forest I go, to lose my mind […]
