I'm a free spirited aging hippie
who loves talking to flowers, chasing rainbows
and photographing all the beauty that surrounds us
Thanks for taking a peek into my little world

with Autumn light
On the dry side of the Cascades

Wide Open Beauty

The vast expanse of openness
just east of the Cascade Range
is profoundly different
from the wet west side
With a beauty
all its own

one lone leaf of Autumn
stood out like a beacon

In Memory

My heart truly hurts
for the victims of the Las Vegas shooting
I don't understand
this hatred and violence

are so lush and green
and often
so very wet

Gone from the rich greens of summer
to the golden browns of fall
