picture samples from the new camera
I posted a few macro shots on my photo blog. The first is a close up of the flowers I mentioned in my last post. The other three are from a bush outside my bedroom window. Click on a photo for a larger view! I love this camera! (But I still have a lot to

Treasure in earthen vessels
This evening George and I attended an open house launching a month-long pottery exhibit at the Marshall Visual Arts Center. The potter, James E. Sanders, makes wheel-thrown stoneware vases, lamps, dinnerware, bowls, teapots, chalices, candle holders, covered serving dishes, and much more. Not only does he strive for perfection in form, he also emphasizes intricate

In the first month of Jubilee my true love gave to me . . .
Did I ever mention that George spoils me? Though I don’t think “spoils” is the right word, because I’m not rotting away or anything. Quite the contrary. I’m so tenderly loved that I’m flourishing like a well-watered garden. A couple of days ago a package arrived in the mail. He was acting so excited I

Celebrate good times, come on! (You know you want to.)
So, wow. I’ve been truant for quite a while. I hope this doesn’t mean I’ll have to repeat a cyber grade. Much has happened since our adventure in sandwich land. Christmas for one thing. Lots of family togetherness. Lots of friend togetherness. Lots of meaningful life. And now a new year has dawned. Do you

Irksome Verdant Turbulent Birds
I’m in Dallas today. Luke flew into DFW from Chicago yesterday, and my nephew graduated from UNT in Denton with degrees in creative writing and music this morning. We attended the ceremony, which was as pompous and circumstantial as you might imagine, but Luke kept it interesting. Let’s begin with his fashion choices: brown quick-dry

Giving thanks for Thanksgiving
Wow! Where do I begin? As Inigo Montoya so eloquently put it, “Let me ‘splain. No. Is too much. Let me sum up.” Highlights of our trip: We arrived in Seattle Monday the 20th and that evening took Grace and Curtis to dinner at Agua Verde, a cool Mexican restaurant where we joined Daniel and

Greet Philologus
I’ve read the book of Romans many times, but I don’t remember noticing that name amidst Paul’s greetings before today. Philologus. It’s pretty much the reverse of logophile (word lover), so I’m guessing it means “word of love” or something to that effect. (We do have some Greek reference books around here, but I’m too
