“…please send Lady Spring up here.”

Elizabeth asked “Where is lady Spring hiding?” on her excellent blog:

I am sending her and other friends up north some colors from San Diego. I will be looking forward to seeing their “payback” 🙂 colors when they will have the Lady there. Thanks much! 🙂

California at a higher latitude, seen by Nicci.

“This photo was taken on February 27 2016 and shows the middle-grade boys division starting their race. It took place at Alpine Ski Club, which is located at Soda Springs, CA.” – Nicci Carrera.

As soon as I saw this photo, I immediately loved it! Nicci is a wonderful friend and has a very big heart. She is a writer, photographer, planner/project manager, editor, nature advocate, etc. –  yes, she wears many hats! Above all, she is a great human being.

Thanks so much, Nicci! And cheers to our friendship at WordPress!

… on a very special day.

The sky was so beautiful that the leaves were reflecting part of that generous blue. We shared tears of emotion, we shared smiles, we shared hugs. We also shared a new beginning.

sunday morning at the La Jolla shore…

 

The California grizzly bear (Ursus californicus) was designated official State Animal in 1953.

 

Preparing for a kayak tour.

… because it’s Friday… :-)

… we need flowers around us, don’t we?

Yes, we do!

But we also need sun, and green, and blue.

Last, but not least, we have to give thanks. I take this opportunity to give thanks to Sharon Mann, and to our friend from the far east, for their excellent paintings! Their works can be seen at:

You all have a safe and great weekend! Shabbat Shalom to our friends who observe Shabbat!

PS: I will be off from October 15th through October 26th. Thank you! 🙂

… still summer I

… still summer in San Diego

but some signs of the fall, too.

Little Auden loves his yellow Tonka truck …

Oh yes! He does love to play with his truck!

But he also finds time to “read” his books. “Turn the page, Auden!” … and he turns the page. This is dedicated to Julia Ojidos, who regularly posts the column “Buenas Noches Y Feliz Lectura”, in addition to her spectacular writings.
