A Crash or A Wonderful Journey?
Two emails bracketing a difficult day: 8:33 am Good Morning Joy, I made it in. I had already made the exit # 6, just cruising along listening to NPR, and something catches my eye back on the freeway to my left side. It is a black van rolling sideways, pieces flying and a large rag […]
Listening to the Sweetest Decline
This one photo has three names: Man’s New Competition Eve is on the Apple Again Joy’s Little World
Weekend Weirdness
Joy and I got weird this weekend. I’m talking about art, people! We discovered some new techniques for some interesting photography. Here are two examples involving digital collage. More to come soon. . The Sea of Love . Dream Catcher
Zinnia Gallery Opening: Seeing Double @ 6400
Our first Opening at the Zinnia Gallery was a success!
Evolution of an image
I was cleaning out my computer of a lot of old clutter and I came across the cloud image that I used to make the cloud theme for this blog. I thought I’d share with you how the image evolved. First, we went for a walk back in October, and there was a glorious cloud […]
Surfing: Father to Son to Grand Daughter
They say that the best is always yet to come. Seeing myself looking old is made joyful by the great pleasure I get from my son and grand daughter. So, I believe. This is one of those days that Joy and I met Chris and Skyler at the beach. Water temp: around upper 50’s. But […]
“Have I told you lately…”
Not many words required for this one… Except for “love me, know my world”
The Big Turning
It is amazing how far the sun moves across the horizon during the turn of a year. Out our front windows the Sun rises at the north end of Corpus Christi Bay in the Summer and the south end in Winter. It has just taken the big turn back toward the north. Lots of celebrating […]
Lessons from the ‘Pastor’
Brothers and Sisters, let us consider a wise word or two for a moment. Joy inspired me today musing on the notion of creating or reacting. Do we simply exist? Do we create a life for ourselves of our own choosing? Life can be complicated and Joy knows everything is not ‘black and white’. But […]
Space Chart
Announcing the Brand New 2008 Corpus Christi Calendar! You have waited for over a year! Now it is here! A new Space Chart to help us keep track of where we are in the eternal revolutions made by Mother Earth around the Sun. We will start with a moment called January 1st and continue one […]
Remote viewing and ETs
The mind is a wonderful thing. People have claimed to do all sorts of things with it that are outside of normal experience, such as astral travel, hypnosis, meditation, healing, channeling, bi-location, communication with dead people, predictions, psychic readings, and a lot of others I’m not familiar with. These things fascinate me, probably because life […]
August Moody Wisdom
These are a few quotes from the famous Zen Dreamer August Moody. They may become a regular feature. “For one to not be hypocritical in love one must love one’s self first.” “George, just quit. It would fit your image.” “The more you learn about hunger the more glad you are to be alive.” “Cars! […]
Clouds Calendar
Well, Carolyn asked for it, so we put together a calendar of some of our best pictures of clouds. It was difficult to decide which to include. I don’t think I would have chosen the two that Carolyn liked best, so consider it a group effort. Here’s the cover. It has all the holidays marked, […]
Who Knows What Day It Is?
Give us human beings a few days off from our ruts and we forget what day it is! Joy and I went shopping. Just to get out of the house. We ended up at several places including our favorite pan dulce place here in CC. It was no easy task. The temperature outside is -56 […]
What is the Weather There?
What is the weather out your window? But we have lyrics! Listen to ‘Spark’ Spark (Over The Rhine) It’s not the spark that caused the fire It was the air you breathed that fanned the flame What you think you’ll solve with violence Will only spread like a disease Until it all comes ’round again […]
