Saturday in the park ...


I enjoyed a wonderful 4th of July with friends ... dining al fresco at Karma Cafe in Hoboken, hiking along the waterfront, up past 33rd street ... for a heady impressionistic display of fireworks against the Manhattan skyline. All on the loveliest of summer evenings. (Photos, not my own!)

second scene


Things seen while walking in a woodland garden. A creamy white rose from a wedding bouquet, and old wooden window frames for hanging in the trees.

Empty Bowl Meditation ... what's in your head, let it go... what's in your hand, release it ... what's in front of you, face it.

sweet peonies

Last year, I was drawn to a cheerful and open-faced peony, the Krinkle White. This year, I am lost in white, a cool and dreamy, wordless white.

tete-a-tete

These daffodils were the "extras" that came with my fall planting order. After ~ 13 weeks in the refrigerator (in moist potting soil, under a foil tent) they were transferred to a moderately sunny spot in the kitchen. Click on the photo to see how the light plays off the creamy petals.
