Fine Art Photographer
Dawn not quite 6:15 am sleep escapes me. Up briefly online a self portrait, worlds collide. Pixels and Silver Halides 1967 Nikon FTN no upgrade. PJC 1950 no upgrade.
But when in doubt shop. A Ray of Light leads the way. Frozen, Lighting McQueen Socks.
Atten. Costco Shoppers time for a break.
Shopping done time to nap.

Olympia Middle America, a refuge for a shattered soul, a safe cocoon for us wrapped in freedom quietly going through life’s daily chores, work. As I walk to the bus this morning I can hear the rumbles of War. The base 5-8 miles away they are playing/practicing War. It scares me! Then I think 5-8 miles away practice. But in the Mideast my walk would be consumed by fear 5-8 miles could be my home soon. To live with that reality!
Today I am safe practice doesn’t affect me . We the people ignore, shut out, forget. But they are bombing today.
My journal more a diary of late keeping track. No essays, poetry, politics. But they are bombing today.
Like the rest of the people politics opinions hidden except for a “like or Share” on Face Book. Petitions, polls, surveys briefly comment 140 characters or less. Then on to a joke. Hiding from reality. What would Tom Paine Do?
Sunday March first a taste of spring at an excellent museum. Thank you to Dan the Director of the Museum for giving us a private tour. A great part of a day trip.
At the switchboard Aberdeen Museum of History
Low clouds and a breeze great light for an image before a tasty lunch at Breakwater Seafoods and Chowder in Aberdeen.
A day of creativity, good food, history in a very visual town. On the way back to Olympia plans were made for the next trip. I always like day trips, any trips. Especially to off the beaten track places, real people, history. Visual Stories created and told
