Chinese Checkers Elephant

Shot tonight over the edge of the couch.

The reason you don’t see a full complement of marbles is that the cats methodically knock them to the floor one at a time and then bat them around the room endlessly – their favorite make-humans-crazy game.

Mission San Miguel

Stopped off with family at Mission San Miguel on the way home from the Central Coast last week – hadn’t been there for years. Caught this weird light glowing through a dusty old cow skin window.

No Time!

Spotted at the local Japanese dry good store – NOTIME chewing gum. According to the friendly clerk, this is for times when you don’t have time to brush your teeth. To me, it reads like “Everything you do is a whirlwind frenzy!”

No time!

Walking with my Son, East Bay Hills

Feel so blessed to have so many great hiking trails in our own back yard. Caught this one of Miles and I traipsing around near Schmidt Lane in El Cerrito recently at the golden hour, sun long in the sky, enjoying the heck out of each other’s company.

Miles and I on a sunset hike, long evening shadows. Frabjous day.
