Morning at the Hacienda

A few more days before I visit family and friends in Canada. Meanwhile, the morning sparkles to life. 

Life is precious.

Africa Memories

Leopard relaxing

A bit of a stretch

And time to go.

 

Memories of Africa

I visited Africa in September 2004.

The vistas, light and locals are a delight.

Resting out of the sun.

Hopefully, a comfortable resting position.

Rain

It has been raining all night and still the grey skies are showering this morning. The dog and I sit …looking out. 

A native cactus is enjoying the moisture. 

And a gifted orchid is glorious. 

Rain through the sunset

Rain ….after months without a drop, the rain has come!

To the east, a rainbow. 
To the west…a celebration of color. 

Another wonderful day. 

The view from here.

Saturday evening.

A lovely glass of Malbec, bird song and then the main attraction. 

The first night with a thunderstorm and a welcoming rain. Life is good. 

Making a Difference

The daughter of a friend recently spoke at Yale.

I am honored to share this clip.
