welcome olive

My friend Julia rescued a puppy and named her Olive.

She brought her to meet me today . . . she's little, hence the need for a sweater. woof.

And lest you think that I all do is take photographs of sunsets and sunrises, here is a butterfly from the canyon.

On occasion I go to the Cochella Valley. This is the wind farm off of Interstate 10 that I pass on my way.

I open the door to let one of the cats in and hear fireworks. What’s that about? Mid December and the sky is popping off with summer attitude. I suppose it is what comes along with being a harbor / bay city with the rumor of it always being sunny-warm. But it’s not. It’s cold and gray today and I am thankful for a warm place to take my boots off and hang my coat. And of course there is the pleasure of my feline companionship. We’re making burritos for supper tonight. They’ve asked for tuna fish ones.
