Day 590 On the Road



Another Day spent visiting my mom in rehab. My only opportunity for taking pictures was on the road from Orange County to Ventura County.

Day 589

I took pictures today of my mom who is in rehab. She had a health set back and has been in rehab for about three weeks now. I don't think she'd appreciate it if I posted her picture. So I did take a picture this day, just not posting.

Day 588 Puppies!



I drove for six hours and when I arrived at my destination took pictures of Siberian Husky, Golden Retriever mix puppies. The puppy at top is mine. Seven my shepherd lab mix that has appeared on my blog three times died during the night on November seventh. Time for my very own new puppy. I had been looking for a husky mix for a very long time now and then heard my sisters friend since high school had a litter. They call them Goberians. She gave me the pick of the litter, I chose the biggest goofiest male. The bottom picture is of one of his sisters.

Day 587 Metal Shack


I have tried for a long time to get a picture of this tiny ramshackle shack, but it never seems to work out for me, until today. I love how the morning light reflects off the shiny surface.

Day 583 Raymond Troha





What I love most about photography is the memories the photographs bring back.
These pictures are for the man who raised my sisters and I. He disappeared about thirty years ago after a contentious divorce. One of my sisters found him and I hear he is happily remarried and living in San Diego. I also hear he lost all his pictures in an apartment flood. So these are for him if he ever finds this place. The top two pictures are of his mother and father with other family members in the second photo. The third down is of him, with a man I don't know, when he was in the Air Force. Bottom picture is of him with my sister Wendy, his biological daughter.
The older the photograph the sweeter the memory.
