“Eat, Drink and Be Happy” I am blessed that there are so many, many things in my life that not only make me happy but bring me great joy. Most of those things I photograph often. I decided today to head toward the silly rather than the serious side of things that bring me happiness. This is not to belittle the prompt but to attempt to document all the little quirky things that make me, me. For the most part,…
“S is for Strawberry” I waited way to late in the day for this one – after choir rehearsal and a few beers at a local night spot with choir members as we celebrated our last rehearsal before leaving on Monday for our two week tour in England.
“I Spy, You Spy” I’m not sure whether this picture is I spy a cat in a box or the cat spies me with the #*@$ camera.
“Old and New” Last night we met some friends for dinner down in the Bishop Arts district in Oak Cliff. This is a funky neighborhood that has been totally revitalized over the past several years. It has gone from a run down section of town to a lively hot spot for specialty shops and dining.

You’ll have to make it through this series of pictures, imagining some missing parts, to fully appreciate the ending.Once upon a time there was a panicked bride. On the Wednesday before the Saturday she was getting married, the source for her wedding cake informed her that she would not be able to make her…
“Drying Gum Paste Flowers” Consider this a preview . . .stay tuned.
“Past and Present Meet On The Street” The juxtaposition of the old sign and new sign for this building one on top of the other made me chuckle.
“Ordinary Anniversary” Today is our anniversary. When asked how long we have been married, our typical response is “forty-six years but only three to each other.” We had a short conversation about what we wanted to do to celebrate and came to the conclusion that we are pretty happy with our ordinary days and didn’t really want or feel the need to do anything special. I gave my last final exam of the summer term this morning. Weber picked me…
