Jumping into this week’s Photo Challege: State of Mind, I can tell you what mine was while taking this picture… hunger… and envy! This picture was taken near the town of Encinitas on the drive home from San Diego, after a long, fun day visiting the Zoo. I find it impossible to remain on the […]

I see it’s Saturday!
This photo was taken at the San Diego Zoo last Saturday, as I spent a wonderful day wandering among the animals. I believe this beautiful bird realizes it to be Saturday, not a work day for me, and therefore a favorite day of the week! ~SueBee
Tri-color Hibiscus
Today’s Foto Fix of a colorful hibiscus was taken on Saturday at the San Diego Zoo. Isn’t it beautiful?! ~SueBee
It’s All Happening at the Zoo
(18 photos in gallery) I was in complete agreement with the Simon & Garfunkle song “It’s All Happening at the Zoo” yesterday, as I visited the San Diego Zoo for the first time in decades. Kat and her boyfriend, Cameron, gave me an annual pass for the Zoo and associated Wild Animal Park at Christmas. I finally […]
Seaside Remnant
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. […]
Ferns and Reflection
This picture was taken while I was visiting Portland, Oregon, last September. What a beautiful city it is, lush and green, as this pictures demonstrates! ~SueBee
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
Wooden Piers in Sand
A quintessential beach scene, this one taken at Crystal Cove State Park in Southern California’s Orange County, provides today’s Foto Fix. ~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?
Today’s Foto Fix, in honor of my favorite day of the workweek, was taken at the nearby Santa Ana Zoo, here in Orange County, California. Happy Friday everyone! ~SueBee
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! They drove by car from the city of Orange in Southern California to Williams, […]
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
Today’s Foto Fix was taken in one of my favorite places, Oak Glen. Happy Friday, TGIF, Yippee, it’s nearly weekend! ~SueBee
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 […]
