Those Eyes

You may have seen this little one before. But this shot didn't make my website (yet). I was out waiting at the bus stop (I enjoy using public transportation when possible) when one of my clients spotted me. Turns out my bus stop is located at the same place Alexandra goes to school. I got this email from mom a short time later: "Alexandra seems to think of you often too since she is convinced we should ALWAYS see you at the bus stop :)". Now this may not seem like such a big deal to you parents but I don't have kids of my own so it really warms my heart that little ones remember me... and seem to look forward to seeing me at the bus stop.

I also like that mom liked this unsmiling photo. Sure there were plenty of Alexandra smiling and laughing. But how can you argue with those eyes?

I love our overcast days in SoCal.

Sometimes it rains in LA.

Palm trees.... I just don't get it.

Neighbors

Cynthia (right) and Terry have been neighbors in Pasadena since Terry moved in next door in 1987. And it’s not unusual to find them chatting in their front yards.
Thought interrupted:
"My gardener had just lost his mother” that’s what I was telling Cynthia before you walked up.

Cynthia: My two kids are back home. I love to cook. It gives me pleasure.

Terry works as an entomologist.
Terry: “My favorite thing is mud. My license plate is ‘Baumud’”
