I took this picture with my iPhone last Friday evening while wandering along the sand at Newport Beach, before meeting a friend from high school for dinner. I’m not sure what the wooden structure had been when in good condition. It was quite close to the pier, so maybe it had been used to tie up boats. […]

A Sunday Afternoon in the Garden
I enjoyed last Sunday afternoon, wandering around the Fullerton Arboretum, on what felt like a springtime day. Such are the reasons we live here in Southern California. We may moan and complain about the intense, seemingly endless hot spells, and worry about the drought and damage it’s done, but we still continue to love our blue […]
Red Farm Store
I took today’s Foto Fix this past Sunday outside of Cal Poly Pomona’s Farm Store. In the background, a bit of snow is still to be seen on the mountains. With our current heat wave, though, I expect it will sadly be all melted within days. ~SueBee
Monday Morning Kitty
This kitty shares the same expression I have each Monday morning as I head off to work. I took this picture on Sunday afternoon at the community garden section of nearby Fullerton University’s Arboretum. It was a gorgeous, warm, breezy day and perfect for a walk in the gardens.~SueBee

Weekly Photo Challenge: Vibrant
I’m joining in this week’s Photo Challenge, Vibrant, with a very vibrant Olvera Street in downtown Los Angeles. The stalls selling colorful clothing, accessories, and yummy snacks are ever intriguing! ~SueBee Per the Olvera Street website: “Olvera Street, known as “the birthplace of Los Angeles,” is a Mexican Marketplace that recreates a romantic “Old Los […]
Is that the weekend I see coming up?

Kat at the Grand Canyon
This past November, Kat and her boyfriend, Cameron, visited the Grand Canyon. It sounds like they had a fabulous trip, and in viewing the pictures Kat sent me to upload for this post, it looks like a fabulous trip, as well!

Weekly Photo Challenge: Optimistic 2
I found a second entry for the Weekly Photo Challenge, taken just over a year ago as I started hiking up the Lykken Trail in Palm Springs. At this point of the trail, I felt very optimistic I would keep up with the man and girl hiking ahead. ~SueBee
Weekly Photo Challenge: Optimistic
This week’s Photo Challenge asks us to provide examples of being Optimistic. I chose this photo of a family gathered in the chilly evening hours at Newport Beach Pier, as their fisherman winds his fishing line onto the spool. The family, and particularly the little girl, is surely optimistic that dinner would soon be caught. ~SueBee
I see the weekend out there

Colors Under Water
Today I’m featuring a photo I’d taken at nearby Long Beach’s Aquarium of the Pacific, and edited to really highlight the colors! ~SueBee
Snow on the Mountains
I’m featuring guest photos today. These snowy pictures were taken a few days ago by my oldest daughter, Angelika, with her iPhone. She reports she took the pictures from inside her car while stopped at a traffic signal, hence they’re a tiny bit blurry. The snow coverage is sparser than after the first night of our big storm […]
Meditate
Today’s Foto Fix was taken at the Japanese Garden in Portland, Oregon, last year. I imagine many people are meditating and consoling themselves this morning on whatever money they spent while hoping to win the $1,600,000,000 Powerball prize drawing last night. As for myself, I’ll pay Kat the $2 for the single ticket she bought on my […]
Sunday Morning Drive Near Orange
I woke up at the crack of dawn this morning, and took a drive toward an area of remaining open space in the over-developed region known as Orange County, here in Southern California. It’s really quite astounding what an early morning drive can do for a person! With few people out and about, and minimal cars, the […]
Morning Ride
Howdy Pardner! How about you’re a cowboy/girl this morning, taking a trail ride to Andreas Canyon in the Palm Springs area? Sounds like a great idea to me. I took this picture a year ago, during a little get-away vacation. I did a lot of hiking and exploring, and had a fabulous time. ~SueBee
Pondering
The expression and pose in this picture describes my week. Starting on Monday with a repairman who nearly blew up my gas furnace, myself and him included, followed by these past four days without heat in shivering cold weather, combined with a torrential rainstorm that led to a leaking roof and water running down my bedroom wall. Yes, […]
