Happy Father's Day! Here's a photo of my Father showing my girlfriend, now my wife, his asparagus coming up.
Our trip to Hawaii was fantastic. The raw beauty is stunning everywhere you look. Top left: Honolulu at dusk. Top right: a Green Sea Turtle on Maui resting on our private beach. Bottom left: Same beach with coral that is in the process breaking down to sand. Bottom right: Big Island, Lava field.

Hi Yunkeroo, me too! Is this the Lou Reed you were speaking of? An Australian friend had the BEST attitude. He would do this "outta dere...for the LOUAD!" While moving his right arm and thumb back over his shoulder, and then quickly shoot his arm forward and down and use his pointer finger. 😂
Here's our mourning dove from last year. The philodendron was never the same. 😂
Sorry this slipped my mind last weekend. Mmmmm, seeing and photographing the Relics of St Valentine last year at the Basilica of Santa Maria in Cosmedin, Rome was quite a thrill. I hope you enjoy it too. Pass the chocolates!
It's that time of year when I open my favorite Christmas Book, The List of 7 by @markfrost.bsky.social If you haven't read it, it's a Holiday Treat like no other. ❤️
19º this morning with a couple of inches of snow. The Morning bird feeding takes place despite the weather. The wreath used to be on my Father and Mother's grave but I got two new ones this year so Holiday Wishes for my birds. ❤️
My daughters and I out shopping. I already have the best presents a man could ever have. 🥲❤️
Here are my wife's from last Christmas. The mold came from her Mother's German family. My wife's Mother passed in September so no cookies this year. 🥲
