The Beauties

We all need blog posts full of lovely things, yes?
When I took Anna back to college, we stopped by a Mexican place to share a plate full of nachos.  It's one of those simple things that we remember for years. How many more chances will I have to sit and chat with her like that? Many, I hope. She's growing so lovely, inside and out.
The sunset among the mountains and pines was glowing as I drove home.

Sandy and I sat and waited for Julia to finish her art class. Bless the puppy -- she's waiting and she doesn't even know what she's waiting for, until Julia walks toward the car.
Sandy in profile:
As we waited for Julia, I finally photographed this interesting tree, a sycamore, I think. The bark looks so much like a paint-by-number from childhood, or maybe just a watercolor look.
Isn't it beautiful and unusual? How often do we just glance and not look?

how often do we miss the Whisper because we've got noise playing?
