I have mixed feelings about people putting dogs in strollers. On the one hand, it is pretty cute, on the other hand it is kind of silly. Ok, Cute wins, just look at the dog in the photo above. Melts even my cat loving heart. And while I am on the subject of dogs, I […]

The Dog Ate My Homework
Somehow the text for my most recent post did not make it onto the site, just the photos. The post that should have been included with the photos from yesterday was something about climate change. But, I really did not have any specific insights, better you read what actual journalists have written about what actual […]
Turn of the Television “News”
I have stopped watching television “news” and my life has become a whole lot calmer. In order to better understand the world I have been taking long walks (some people call them hikes, but that sounds too organized or intentional). I just wander, take my time, look around, notice the world and all of its […]
All That is Solid Melts Into Air

Take your car outta that gear
I am not going to assume everyone knows the title for this post is from a Clash song The Magnificent Seven If you do not know the song, take a listen, I will wait….. It is time for me to become unstuck from the past. All too often people are trapped in their bubble or […]
What am I doing to live a creative life today?
Photos from Moffett Field, near San Jose. This structure was a big part of the the things I saw growing up in the Silicon Valley area. It was a 1930s era Hanger One, Moffett Field It was going to be torn down, but now will be restored (I think, you can look it up, my […]
A profound title regarding emotions
I have tried writing this introduction sentence about ten times, but it ends up sounding too much like a line from a comedy act “Ever notice how….” or a self-help book “We would all be better off if …” I think this is better, you get to see how I fashion this stream of conscious […]
