Playing with light
Going to the laundromat is one of those things a person cannot avoid. I know. I’ve tried. There are, however, good ways to use the downtime between Sort, Load and Fold, should a person be provident enough to bring a camera along. Behold the Ice. Can’t you just imagine what it must have been like […]
This table is reserved
February 15, 2010
Babs and I had made plans to meet for breakfast at Sonny’s this morning. At the appointed hour—and there’s a miracle all by itself—I arrived. Babs was going in the door as I hit the parking lot. By the time I got to the table there was a cup of coffee for me, a Mountain […]
A deep map of Eastport
December 31, 2009

And sometimes loveliness falls in your lap
May 30, 2009
So yesterday was a busy day, what with all the things we’d put off all week, and we had to do laundry. Off to the Wash Basket in Central Lake. While the clothes tumbled in the dryer, Miss Sadie and the Cowboy took each other for a walk in the grass behind the building, and […]
