My frosty yard last week
Yes, I've been gone a long time and I really miss being here. I''ve been super busy this year and am eagerly awaiting the arrival of family who will be here with me for the Christmas holiday. That is, of course, weather permitting. At this moment highway One is closed because of flooding in several places. 128 was closed this morning but appears to be open now. I hope they'll have cozy trips to Fort Bragg in warm cars and then for sure, we'll have a warm and cozy time when we're all together. Can't wait.
One of the things that caused me to slow down and then abandon my blog has been the wimpyness of my little eleven inch Mac Air because of not having enough room to put my pictures into it directly without using a secondary stage external drive. I know that's a poor excuse, but call me lazy, or too busy. It definitely was a factor. I have now treated myself to a thirteenn inch Mac Air with much meatier innards. I'm writing now on this shiny new model and hope it will help me get a new grip on sticking with it. We'll see. I'll return to this post tomorrow morning if not earlier and we'll go from there. Happy holidays dear friends.
Next day: I've just finished listening to a marvelous interview with Isabel Allende on City Arts and Lectures from KQED. I've heard her speak many times but this was the best yet. A classic exploration of her habits, inclinations, candor and honesty. I loved it and called Kathy to see if she could find it. Actually, I'm sure it can be streamed from the KQED or KZYX archives. Definitely worth the effort to find it.
I'm soon on my way to do last minute errands in Fort Bragg and Mendocino. We have frost forcast for the next two days so I'm hoping to share a pic from last week's amazing frost. Hasta luego.
