What is Patriotism?
It’s hard to define but you know it when you see it. It’s not the love of a particular government or administration, it’s the love of country and its people and principles, demonstrated by ordinary citizens. And not so ordinary heroes. When I was… Continue Reading “What is Patriotism?”

Red Square Diners
On our trip to the Oregon Coast last week, we stopped by C & C Classic Diner in Montesano, Washington, for lunch. The food was good, the ambiance was even better. Betty Boop was on hand to serve us. It reminded me of the… Continue Reading “Red Square Diners”

Heavenly Sunshine!
The Sun is a gift to earth’s inhabitants, enjoyed by us who are 93 million miles away! In the morning it rises and we bask in its rays, even when we can’t see them. We rush to watch its setting, too, and the spectacular… Continue Reading “Heavenly Sunshine!”

Just a Walk in the Park with an old Canon
I love getting rid of ‘stuff,’ perhaps obsessively, so for the past few months, I’ve been on a decluttering mission. Unwanted items are disposed of, saved for garage sale, or taken to the Goodwill. Today, while going through some drawers, I came across my… Continue Reading “Just a Walk in the Park with an old Canon”

Squares from Spokane – Remnants from a World’s Fair
I was born and raised in Seattle and have traveled extensively throughout Washington State. But I’ve only been to Spokane, Washington’s second largest city, a couple of times, usually on the way to someplace else. Sorry, Spokane. (Granted it’s a five-hour drive east.) So… Continue Reading “Squares from Spokane – Remnants from a World’s Fair”

Geometric Fields – Daffodils and Tulips
January is a dreary month if you live in the Pacific Northwest, there’s just no way around it. The days are short and gray with lots of rain, it makes me long for spring! Fortunately, it won’t be too much longer till I can… Continue Reading “Geometric Fields – Daffodils and Tulips”

White and Wonderful, Snow and Clouds
For this week’s photo challenge, Sunday Stills, #White I’ll look to the pure driven snow and the snow-white clouds for inspiration. No snow so far in Seattle this year, so I’ll use some photos from past year’s glories, accented with two of my favorite… Continue Reading “White and Wonderful, Snow and Clouds”
