When did I grow old?
When did I grow old? It feels like I blinked, and suddenly I’ve aged — I was writing in my journal when I noticed how old my hands looked. I don’t feel older, but I now have my grandparents’ hands: the loose flesh, thin skin, age spots, and prominent veins.
Ginger’s Studio Worktable
Ginger’s Studio Worktable. A hurried shot that I should have taken more time over.

Pool on Whites Creek, Irish Wilderness
Pool on Whites Creek, Irish Wilderness — Oh the joys of the Golden Hour (and being in the right place).
Keeping warm in my hammock
Keeping warm in my hammock — The low was 23°F (-5°C), well within the 10°F rating of my quilts. I was nice and cozy. A forecast of 20°F is my lower limit, I do this for funsies, not to prove anything.
Cottage Still Life
Cottage Still Life – This photo started life as a joke picture for the girls, and then it took on a life of its own requiring a second ‘shoot’ just to put right a few of the details.
Plectranthus ‘Mona Lavender’
The soft light on a dull rainy day on these flowers Ginger picked and placed on the kitchen table caught my eye, and prompted a discovery. 2
Through the veil
Through the veil – It’s taken me a while to see the potential in this picture. I like this alternate treatment of the image.
Enjoying the view
Enjoying the view – between interludes of journaling and swimming. I even completed some camp chores.

Breakfast at Denny’s – Ginger, immersed in her phone.
Clouds
Clouds – I was hoping for a nice, as in flaming oranges and yellows, sunset. It didn’t happen, but this cloud formation and an otter made up for it.
Lower Pilot – From the Coy Bald Trail, Hercules Glades Wilderness
Lower Pilot – from the Coy Bald Trail, Hercules Glades Wilderness. I started my day camped about three-quarters of a mile to the west (left) of the Lower Pilot. Taken with my 14-year-old Fuji Finepix digital camera. 1

Frosty Morning
Frosty Morning – The predicted overnight temperatures were 30°F. It dropped to 21°F. Fortunately, I’d anticipated this and I was nice and warm in my hammock.

The Baptism of Persephone
The Baptism of Persephone – I’ve often said that working for the Church I am privileged to be present at key moments in people’s lives. Unexpectedly that happened at this weekend’s Easter Vigil service. 2 2
Buck Hollow
Buck Hollow. An idyllic and tranquil view later to be interrupted by the arrival of a bear. 2
