  • First snow of the season

    The first real snow of the season hit this past Saturday. It wasn’t much but it was pretty.

    The cat's first snow. He was not amused.

    The lone sunflower in our backyard doesn't look like it's going to survive much longer.
    I've always like the aluminum trashcans with lids.
    The fence was a popular place for snowflakes to gather.

    I can't wait for more snow.

     

     

     

     

     

  • Dia De Los Muertos, Los Angeles 2011

    I was fortunate enough to have the opportunity to fly back to LA for the Day of the Dead celebration held at Hollywood Forever Cemetery. As always, it didn’t disappoint.
