Lulu is trying to take a nap. Sadly, Lulu is no longer with us. We miss her very much. Greatest lap cat ever.

I got selected to lead the St. Patrick's Day parade. I've been a park ranger for a couple of months.

Good morning, Mr. Grasshopper.

The first peach blossoms of 2026 are in my garden.

The deer are taking over.

I baked a peach and black cherry cobbler today. It looks a little weird, but it's gonna be tasty.

Gracie's Salad Garden. There were a couple of plants left over from last year, and I planted twelve new ones of different varieties. This is the only place in the garden with enough shade to protect them from the Arizona sun.

My old PADI Divemaster cap has seen better days. I wore it for many years. I didn't want to buy a new one since it was developing a character of its own. Sun and salt did their worst to destroy it. Nevertheless, it and I are still alive.

Lulu, my 13-year-old Maine Coon cat died suddenly a few days ago. I'm feeling very sad. She was such a good little companion.

Lulu likes to lie on the kitchen counter by the sink to let the afternoon sun shine on her face. Falls asleep every time.
