Life Amongst the Landscape, Unexpected Inspiration, Life as Art, Travel and More
This morning’s walk was cloaked in fog so I don’t have any great vistas to share. However, as Baxter and I took our spin around the headland my attention was captured by all the spider webs and colorful fall leaves. It occurred to me that spiders, like human weavers, might just have their own “hand.” …

Our air quality is coming in at 160 this morning which is not great; 150 is where they draw the line between healthy and potentially hazardous. We’ve got a fairly heavy morning fog which seems to be cleansing the air. I have been watching with interest activity on the headland that many people might not …

Congratulations, we’ve all made it thru another week and have the weekend to look forward to. Because my walk was delayed until afternoon I left our dog Baxter at home. He always gives me such a heart breaking and sad look once he realizes he is being left behind. It’s hard to take but necessary …
Baxter and I returned to our routine on the headland today and had the trail to ourselves. The perfect way to start off a new week; foggy but blissful. I hope these pics will help get your week off to a great start. #iluvtowalk #baxteronthego
Instead of walking today I gave family members an afternoon auto tour around the various neighborhoods in Arcata and the area surrounding Trinidad, CA. Every neighborhood has its own flavor or personality whether the residents realize it or not. It’s very interesting to look at the smaller details beyond the architecture.
