Richmond Architecture

I haven’t had time to do any blogging in the past month. I am missing it. I just bought my own laptop, so I might have more time to do such. Sunday nights are probably my only time to really relax and say f-it to all the things I could possibly be doing that IContinue reading “Richmond Architecture”

I am also preparing for the class I will start teaching in 3 weeks. On top of that my husband is alsoContinue reading “Life can be a Whirlwind”

Two hundred and eighteen and nineteen

Both of these shots were taken in the backyard of the apartment we ended up renting. It was August last year and I snatched up a cheap apartment even though we didn’t end up moving in until November. The backyard’s fence was the wall of the City Point National Cemetery in Hopewell, Virginia. I reallyContinue reading “Two hundred and eighteen and nineteen”

Dragonflies

I have always loved dragonflies. At some point my Mom and I started buying each other things with dragonflies on them. Whenever I see one now it reminds me of her. I know they always will, even when she is no longer in this realm with me and that gives me comfort. These are photographs IContinue reading “Dragonflies”
