World’s largest wind chimes…
For real!
The view from the wetlands…
…Saddleback, looking good.
Looking for lunch…
…the struggle is real.
The new blanket…
…the third in a series of new blankets that she has decided is for Alfie use only.
HB Central Park: November
Late fall in Southern California. Some trees have lost their leaves, but most don’t take the trouble.
Eucalyptus grove in late afternoon.
Birds returning home for the evening.
The perfect picnic spot…
Clark Regional Park, my favorite Orange County park…
The Unfathomable Sadness of Christmas Bear
Blaring muzak carols, screaming kids…it’s enough to break one’s spirit.
Have you ever seen such despair? Have you?
Then, as if by magic, an early visit from Santa makes him believe again! It’s a Christmas miracle!
Crystal Court Christmas Tree
Two stories plus of weird and wonderful.
Is he about to hand over the gift because you’ve been good, or chuck it at your head because you’ve been naughty. His expression is so hard to read.
Santas from many lands showing off their wares…
A towering structure full of good cheer and an air of strangeness.
Crystal Court…
Crystal Court used to be the part of South Coast Plaza that had stores too swanky to even bother window shopping. Now it’s the more “normal” side of South Coast Plaza.
Pyramid of pointsettias!
Reach for the stars!
