My awesome friend Sarah is starting a virtual book club – and the first selection is How the Dead Dream by Lydia Millet (that’s mullet with an i – as Chris said). I’ve never read anything by her – but cruising through her website I think I’m going to enjoy it – I just bought the book on Amazon so we’ll see soon enough. If you’re interested in joining the club go to Sarah’s blog.
Peace,

I woke up today at the time we should have been walking out the door. After dropping the kiddos off at school I turned the corner to see my bus pulling away from the bus stop. CRAP! Already late – now I have to sit at the bus stop for at least 10 minutes til the next bus comes! Usually I’ve got it timed that I hardly wait more that 3-5 minutes. Grumpily I look around to see if there’s anything worthy of photographing at the bus stop – and – voila! – my bus stop is the “MAGIC BUS STATION”! How cool is that? Everyone needs a little magic in their life!
Across the street from where I catch the bus – this was featured at the end of the movie “No Country for Old Men”.
This is at a bar right around the corner from where I work – it’s call the Madrid
The light in New Mexico changes constantly – particularly in the winter – the sky can go from dusky to bright pink and orange to brilliant blue just in our walks to school. The kids love to point out all the colors in the sky.
This capture is as dusk when the sky is going from warm to cool.
Let there be light!
So my awesome little man turned five yesterday. And he’s already so over it. Anytime you say five he collapses onto the floor in his patented “dramatic-woe-is-me-hand-on-forehead” way and says “not FIVE!“. It’s hilarious and totally William.
This photo doesn’t really do these clouds justice. They were like neon lightning bolts across the sky.
The next show at The Wooden Cow is going to be awesome! Our theme is “The Art of the Shrine” and we have two featured artists – Francisco Bussetti and Monica Francisco DeKam. The opening reception is Feb. 6 which also happens to be the American Heart Association’s “Wear Red Day”. This event helps raise awareness about heart-related health issues in women. Heart disease is the number one killer of women in America. Go to their website to get educated on reducing your risk of heart disease. So we will be participating in that as well. Anyone who wears red, donates money to the American Heart Association, or fills out a registration card for Go Red for Women will get entered into a raffle to win heart-related artwork.
And we will have tarot readings and a caricature artist on hand as well! Plus scrumptious food as always!
This lovely column is not this color in real life – it’s a creamy ivory. I, of course, like unreality sometimes and thought it looked better like this. Taken at the corner of Third & Gold.
