Exceptional Autumn

The colours have been especially good in 2026, on feathers and on leaves.

Shifting Season

Please join me while I soak up the sights of my garden in September.

Here’s a catch-up on some of the things happening with us and our family last month.

If I could spend only one hour in White Sands National Park, this was the correct hour to spend.

I have only a couple bucket list items from my childhood. Seeing the bats at Carlsbad is one of them, and I have finally done that one!

A spring day on the Oregon Coast is filled with astonishing sights.

I am grateful to have the chance to camp with my kiddo every year.

First time in Joshua Tree National Park. I hope to come again and hike the trails here.

We spent a hot weekend in Palm Springs visiting my Uncles.

There are my own rhododendrons, but also a public rhododendron garden with my name on it. What’s not to love about that?
