Sharp Claws and The Thing With Feathers
The park across the street Tuesday morning. There is a bit less snow and quite a bit more ice over there now as we hit the lowest temperature of this weather event early this morning. This hill...
A Different Kind of Lockdown
Out front yesterday morning. It looks the same now after it all melted and then came back overnight. We are in for the deep freeze for at least 5 days. We have warming shelters set up all over ...
Deliveries
We are having this little break in the bad weather, and we had some sun today, distant but blue skies. Mrs. Sherlock forgot Frieda’s harness, so she came over here and got me and we stopped bac...
Let's Not Forget
Vincent van Gogh — ‘Let’s not forget that the little emotions are the great captains of our lives, and we obey them without realizing it.’ I can happily say that my emotions are a little less d...
The Blues
The lilac garden in all its late fall glory. There is a beauty here too. Our grocery store workers are going on strike tomorrow. It will be crazy today, but I will go down and get what I can. ...
There You Go
A young Crepe Myrtle in the neighborhood yesterday. There are two girls that live here, maybe 7 and 9 with their mom. That may be reflected in the level the ornaments are hung. Walking after th...
Really? An Apology?
Not to dwell on the past, but remember my job? The one I was basically forced out of while my tall young inexperienced blond male cohort got promoted above me with a larger salary. Yeah, that o...
My Kind of Decorations
Good news, Carlo’s labs came back normal. Diego’s are too. So much so that I get to stop giving him a B-12 shot every other week and only do it monthly. It takes about three minutes and is no b...
Cookies and Counters and...
Not getting many pictures these transitional days. We went from weirdly warm to burr cold in the middle of one day. This is the lilac garden on this day 5 years ago. I wanted to put up a shot o...
A Chorus of Knitters
Other than a picture of Diego, this is the first picture I took on the first outing with the new phone. Walking to the grocery on Tuesday. Very November, which can’t be over soon enough as far ...
"Nose" Day
From yesterday, this picture reminds me a bit of those old colored postcards from the black and white days. This is a shot of Willamette Falls from an older train car. It is an amazing natural ...
Knees and the Thanksgiving Doldrums
A house at the top of some public stairs on my walk in the fog this morning. Someone with lovely taste lives here. And so does history. Those ferns have been in that retaining wall for some tim...
Taking Back the Narrative
I took this Saturday walking with Mrs. Sherlock but did the same walk yesterday morning without her under less foreboding skies. We have been spared the worst of the “atmospheric river” rain du...
Keeping it Local
Up on the big hill this morning in the fog. The rain finally stopped, and it felt good to be out and moving. There was some flooding and evacuations out near the coast and the place we were at ...
A Toe in the Out There Water?
We have a flood watch in play later today through Friday so this photo I took in the glorious sun along the river on Monday is a reminder that we will get through this patch. Today for the fir...
Just a Photo from Today
Just a photo from my morning walk. My favorite tulip poplar there on the right. Carry on. :)
And So It Goes
This morning: that after Halloween feel in the neighborhood this early November. I took a little walk between rain squalls. Everything is all yellow and overcast out there with an unexpected bu...
Working On It
I have only been to Hawaii once. It was lovely, the Big Island. At sunset every night near our resort area someone would blast classical music. I kind of felt like this one from Saturday night ...
Short, From the Beach
Yesterday, midday, at the far end of the beach. The tide is high in the mornings, so my inner pony is having to wait for midday to walk. Well, and yesterday I taught the morning practice from h...
All Kinds of Weather
The planting next to the track across the big street yesterday in between rain squalls. Still, it was lovely to be out in the fresh air. And I was fully geared up getting ready for our trip to ...
House and Garden
This is the street I live on that my kitchen window and bedroom windows face yesterday morning as I was coming home from the garden for the next to the last time this season. I pulled everything...
Watch Cat
Mrs. Sherlock had been riding over near here on Saturday and she wanted a flat not too ambitious walk on Sunday, so we went back on foot. This is a creek that runs through the southeast part of ...
Going To the Dogs?
This is another shot from “my” bus stop of the grocery I go to. I love the shape and color of the orange tree. This is the prime week here for gorgeous orange foliage. Thursday is my down day. ...
The Future? Dystopia Manifests Before Our Eyes
Except for walks and the occasional medical appointment and trips to visit Mrs. and Mr. Sherlock at home the only place I go anymore is the grocery. This is “my” bus stop this morning. The Orego...
Wily Cat - Long Memory
There was much discussion of zinnias on our neighborhood walk today but I think this row of them along this fence line is perfect. We saw our first ripening pomegranates and persimmons of the ye...
