The frightening view of the sky in SF, 10:30 am.
Day 254: The Fires out West
Category: September
Day 253: Covid Events
In the spring I stepped in as the president of the Creative Writers Association at the university I’m at. Normally, we hold our monthly graduate readings at this great dive-ish bar across from the English department. But now that we are on Zoom for much of life, we have had to adapt. Welcome to my hosting station, from the living room. It’s interesting about how, a year ago, I wouldn’t have guessed this scenario. Is that wonder?
Day 252: Wonder if Walking by Houses
On this 4.5 mile walk/jog I take I pass this single Spanish Hacienda style house. It’s solo in the sea of brick. Brick exists everywhere in Oklahoma. But this house reminds me of home, of Southern California. I’m always so drawn to it, so today I decided to capture a photo of it. The lone hacienda.
Day 251: Rolling Pizza Dough
So much wonder exists in the making of pizza. Especially when you are three and enjoy throwing the ball of dough around!
Day 250: Still Life, End of Covid Summer
Day 249: Perfect Shot
Something so divine exists in the perfect shot.
Day 248: Cat’s Coat
Not all wonders are enchanting, I’ve come to learn. Some just leave you pressing, thinking, questioning. Brea the cat has some rash and she has been pulling out her fur and we have been trying to help her with different medicines, but no luck yet. I wonder if it will take a change in a season for it to go away. Or maybe a trip to the vet.
Day 247: In-Laws Flashback
I don’t know about you but I LOVE pictures that were taken when I wasn’t around. I wish there was a way to time travel, be on this deck, groovin’ with my in-laws and their friends. Can someone invent this?
Day 246: Crying over the classics
Like this one. 😭😭 Shadow climbing out of the mud? Gutting twenty years later, too. Is that not wonder? The emotion that does not leave us.
