Have been writing a ton for work so am motivated only to post photos here. Grey Gardens LA is so photogenic this time of year, and since I finally have a decent digital camera--more than decent, I love the thing, it's a Canon SD850IS Elph that is going to be great for travel since it's so compact--I've been shooting a lot of photos the last couple of days to unwind. It's spring break. I'm pretty glad NOT to be traveling: I have 4 or 5 trips lined up in the next 6 months so staying at home feels like the pause before the storm. I'm behind on everything: taxes, housework, yardwork, correspondence, car maintenance, etc etc. I should be doing all that, but instead today I spent a good few hours outside with the camera doing image therapy among the azaleas.
In the interests of giving the dogs more equal time, today was Scout's turn. He had a bath and a good brushing for his photo shoot. It's very windy today. Gary brushed Scout on the porch and great poufs of golden fur went flying out all over the yard. I like to think of the birds using it in their nests--it's so soft and fluffy. Then he sat out and enjoyed the wind in his hair.
and of course I made him pose in front of azaleas
oh heck, one more of GGLA
This is out back with the cypress tree on the right. I love the way cypresses seem to stretch on their toes out of the ground.
