Insomnia… so I’m posting the first of my promised photo updates.

Sometimes you don’t know the pictures you’re taking are special, and sometimes you do. That evening, I knew this was a special sunset. The even rosy color over the blue/lavender marine layer on the peaceful ocean were captivating, and I’m so glad I was able to make it a visual memory. This photo has not been digitally modified, it’s just as I saw it — although not quite as luminous as the original reflected sunlight was so powerful.

I’ve been away from KCL for a long time. Mostly for good reasons.

Thing2 and I are still enjoying her improved health, and we are trying to get out of the house most weekends.

I have a huge backlog of great photos from our day trips.

We’ve been having a heat wave. It was nearly 100 degrees here yesterday and today. We went to the beach yesterday — there were surfers and kids and the ocean doing its thing… It was magnificent.

Today we stayed home. I had some paperwork that had to get done. I didn’t finish until 2:30, and it was so hot that rather than drive all the way to the beach, we decided to go out to the pool here. There was just one other person there. Thing2 swam and then had an hour nap at the pool-side. I read a book for about an hour and then had a little swim. It was a great day.
