    Letters To..

    I decided to write letters to the precious moments of my life-the people, places and hopes both known and as yet unrealized. Have a look at where todays’s thoughts took me….Here

Meanwhile, be safe, pay…

    Come to the Cone! #flowers #photography

    Since we lived in Costa Rica I have been addicted to photographing all things small-those magical wonders so easily passed over and subsequently ill appreciated. It was a simple thrill for me to photograph small gardens where butterflies fed on the nectar of cone flowers as bees gathered golden treasure to spread from bloom to…

    Finding Food #1LinerWednesday

    “Hey, a guy’s gotta’ eat!” During the time we lived in Costa Rica, I had the opportunity to observe and photograph so many beautiful and interesting animals and insects. During our own Spring here in the US, they are going through the hot, humid season that precedes the rainy months in CR, when things are…

    Affirmative, Captain #SoCS

    We need to get this straight. I will affirm here and now that I have felt less than inspired in the last week. I’m working on the novel-still…maybe forever..but really loving the progress. It is just not something one can easily do at the end of a work day or week, popping from pragmatic, ordered…

  • Bits of Paradise/#1LinerWeds

    The weather forecast for San Isidro el General de Perez Zeledon….   Sunny. With a chance of hot. In the “Winter” of Costa Rica. Our cold months here are their most pleasant. Of course, in San Isidro most nights in the mountains are very cool to chilly.  But the days are hot, so it was…

    A World of Life in One Country/Costa Rica

    Imagine a land of bio diversity, a relatively small country that has an enormous variety of wildlife due to its neotropical climate and varying habitats. This peaceful, ecologically responsible land is home to more than 500,000 species, respresenting nearly 4% of the total species estimated worldwide. It is one of the 20 countries with the…

    Once Upon a Time in Paradise

    It’s sad to think it has been nearly four years now since we made the move back from Costa Rica. Since that time we have planned and been unable to revisit our second home on two separate occasions, both due to natural disasters. In the past few days I have been going through photo files…

    Speechless/#SoCS

    It is with my apologies to Linda Hill and her #SoCS prompt that today’s post is not as fun filled as I normally try to create.. I try to always post things that lift others up or give them a smile. Sadly, at this particular time, when I hear the word reservation my heart and head are heavy.…

    Moments/#SoCS

    Life is merely a string of now moments, some larger than life….   While others are magnificently subtle, creeping over you like the brilliance of a sunset and pulling you into their perfection…     One of my all time favorite moments-the completely unexpected! 🙊😂 Moments make a life. We need to remember that all…
