David Riding Horses

I got on a horse today for the first time since I was about nine years old. After having watched Trisha for the past few weeks I didn’t feel too intimidated. I’m not sure Cash, the horse, was very impressed though.

Bee

I’m fascinated by bees. There’s something kind of mystical about them; the interdependence they have with flowers and how dedicated they are. Here’s one in our front yard today.bee_1030275

Raccoons

We had our first raccoon visit in a very long time. Just a single critter; looks like a youngster.

Leaving Mukilteo for Widbey Island.  Here’s an oil-painting-ish version of the Mukilteo Lighthouse:

Little Brown Squirrel

As much as I am annoyed by the plethora of large gray squirrels in our yard, I adore the small brown ones (usually just one). This guy is just so cute.

Trisha with Diego

Today was Trisha’s first riding lesson at Equestrian Crossings on Whidbey Island. She hit it off right away with her equine partner Diego. He is a lovely animal.

Last Morning in Big Sur

We were up early to begin our 500-mile trek from Big Sur to Medford. The view from our balcony was stereotypically beautiful: peacefully quiet with coastal fog from the ocean spreading among the fir trees and deer grazing in the meadow below.
