After 10 years since moving to Mahopac and 15 years living in the lower Hudson Valley region, I finally visited the Hammond Museum and Stroll Garden. What a lovely place to sit or wander; contemplate or not. I have a hard time quieting my brain. However, visiting a zen garden without my kids is a terrific place to start.

They’re there, they just need encouragement. Courage being the operative word.

It’s remarkable how much movement is felt in something that is withering to death.

Since the flower seems the subject de riguer for most digital macro photographers, I chose the egg carton variety made by my 2 year old as my contribution. Thank goodness for spring…

Don’t leave your umbrella up in a wind storm. This is my “tempered” glass table which couldn’t stand up to the temper of Mother Nature.

I can’t quite put my finger on why 1×1 inch mosaic tiles are so incredibly appealing to me. Must be something about their orderliness that I can only seem to aspire to without actually achieving.

Not a great pic, but I just love this…Gavin’s little feet dipped in blue paint, footprints captured across the page. He’s growing so quickly;  I wish I could freeze him at this age. Ooh, that rhymes and I didn’t mean to…

Fish Oil Capsule

Fish Oil Capsule

I’m always grateful when the sun noticeably hangs on to each day a bit longer. This year, the fish oil has kept the S.A.D. at bay. It may be a placebo effect, but that’s sort of irrelevant, isn’t it?
