GETTING MY GROOVE BACK

Been doing a little traveling, visiting friends, visiting family, being adopted by another family, exploring all the Pacific states -- California, Oregon, Washington, Hawaii, working through the sudden, unexpected deaths of two loved ones, and planning the next chapter in my never-boring life. A BIG chapter!

Now, now - calm down. I'm just planning a move to a "home base." It's only a "big" chapter because I've been a free-wheeling, homeless, wandering gypsy for over seven years now. And not to worry: my tires will continue to gather no moss!

In the meantime, I hope you'll stay tuned as I regress into "QUOTIDIAN" mode. Remember? That assortment of miscellany I throw at you now and then to ward off boredom, keep you occupied, off the streets and out of trouble. Yup! That's my mission. So, here goes!

Weird, huh? Well, when you mess around, sometimes you get "weird." I was photographing the graceful branches of a pepper tree in broad daylight, and a sunspot splash appeared in the corner. Changing day for night, I turned the sunspot into a moon. Rather, the computer turned it into a moon.

Happy Monday!
