‘Routine Breakfast” This week is all about photographing the details of daily life – both the ordinary and the extraordinary. The above shows how we begin almost every day – well, how we begin after we smack the snooze on the alarm a few times, stand in the shower in an effort to become coherent, get dressed wearing clothes that hopefully match and finally stagger out to the kitchen for that first cup of coffee. The coffee is accompanied by vanilla…
“Water Ride” We are having a great weekend in Portland. I am way too tired to write, but I’ll catch up when we get home.
“Simple Comforts of Home” Today was a day of travel – planes, trains, and automobiles – and a few blocks on foot. We made our way home from Portland to Dallas via a brief layover in Phoenix. Though we had no snafus in our travel plans, it was still and long day and tonight will be a very short night. After being gone, even for just two nights, it is nice to come home to the simple comforts . ….
“Left on the Street” We are in Portland this weekend for a NOAH gathering. I am traveling light. Translation: I forgot my card reader for my iPad so posting from here is a little tricky; but, where there is a will, there is a way. I didn’t take many pictures today because much of the day was spent in airports and on planes. Tomorrow we are doing the tourist stuff here in Portland so I’m hoping for a good photography…
“Soft Touch” There is nothing as soft as the gentle touch of someone who loves you.
“Late Night Treat” Thank you, Brookie!!!

Today I had an epiphany and realized why that is. As I mentioned a few days ago, school has been a part of…
“Flowers is a Vase” It was nice to see that the day’s prompt was “still life” because still life is exactly what I had planned for my day! We had nothing on our calendar that had to be done. Yay! We slept late – really late. Considering that most of our mornings begin at 6 am, anything past 8:30 seems late. Past 10 constitutes really late! Oh well, it is the last time that we will get to do that…
“Not Your Kid’s S’mores” For some time we have been wanting to have a get together at the house. It has but put off several times in hopes that all of the renovations would be finished. We are not quite there, but close enough that we decided to go ahead with it tonight. This seemed like a good way to begin the new school year. it was fiesta time – empanadas, tacos, refried beans, corn,slaw and homemade salsa and guacamole….
