Capella Summer: October 2011
http://capellasummer.blogspot.com/2011_10_01_archive.html
Life and Times in the Bay Area. Sunday, October 16, 2011. A couple of weeks ago Chris competed in and completed his first ever Triathlon. I went along to watch and cheer him on. It was the Scott Tinley Triathlon. Down in San Luis Obispo - a triathlon Chris grew up hearing about and daydreamed about completing for many, many years. He completed in the sprint distance (.25 mile swim, 12.4 mile bike, 3 mile run) and completed it in 1 hour 48 min. Chris gets his number - 212 - and preps for the race.

Capella Summer: December 2011
http://capellasummer.blogspot.com/2011_12_01_archive.html
Life and Times in the Bay Area. Saturday, December 31, 2011. This picture was taken at a wedding in November by the same photographer that shot. Our wedding over 7 years ago. It is my favorite photo of Chris and I all year. Our own attempt prior to our photo above to get some pictures - Chris is so handsome. So what about 2012? What are the goals for this coming year? Chris's turn behind the lens. I've spent a few hours looking at Cameron Ingalls' website. This morning and would love to learn to see ligh...

Capella Summer: January 2012
http://capellasummer.blogspot.com/2012_01_01_archive.html
Life and Times in the Bay Area. Sunday, January 1, 2012. Grandpa lights the candles for his granddaughter's 10th birthday. Chris and I headed up the hill last night to join some friends for a new year's / 10th birthday celebration. We had a great time chatting with our friends, sipping champagne, and watching the array of fireworks over the bay and across town from our perch on the deck. Thanks C&R for inviting us!

Capella Summer: August 2011
http://capellasummer.blogspot.com/2011_08_01_archive.html
Life and Times in the Bay Area. Monday, August 22, 2011. Long awaited - The last credit card statement. When I arrive home tonight after going to a double feature at the old Stanford movie theater (Breakfast at Tiffany's? I smiled because it is the last credit card statement in a long line of statements of us paying off our credit card debt. We've been buckling down for over a year, paying extra to the credit cards, paying of each of them one at a time - and we are finally going to be done! Is a very cal...

Writing Down the Desert: April 2010
http://writingdownthedesert.blogspot.com/2010_04_01_archive.html
Writing Down the Desert. A Life in the Sonoran Southwest. Friday, April 16, 2010. Tribute to a Good Dog. Our sixteen year old retriever mix, Max, reached the end of his earth walk yesterday. He suffered a stroke in the morning and deteriorated during the day. He still knew us and was not in pain, but could not stand or control himself and was clearly distressed. There was effectively no chance of recovery. We were holding him when he was euthanized. Labels: losing a pet. Friday, April 9, 2010. I split my...

Writing Down the Desert: On Stewardship and Petunias
http://writingdownthedesert.blogspot.com/2012/01/on-stewardship-and-petunias.html
Writing Down the Desert. A Life in the Sonoran Southwest. Sunday, January 8, 2012. On Stewardship and Petunias. The Sonoran desert is a unique environment. Many think of it as a place filled with things that are too-tough-to-die, a place with incredibly hardy flora and fauna - wouldn't it have to be? Home, sweet home. Symbiotic relationship between the White-winged Dove and the saguaro. Food and a nesting site for pollination services rendered. Phyrrhuloxia at the feast. A sad and premature end. A beauti...

Writing Down the Desert. A Life in the Sonoran Southwest. Thursday, April 14, 2011. The cienega and a majestic cottonwood near Arivaca. One of the wonderful perks of being a docent at the Arizona-Sonora Desert Museum. Male Vermillion Flycatcher between snagging flying insects. Male Summer Tanager, just looking red. A few days ago we headed to Arivaca, well south of Tucson, to visit the cienega in the Buenos Aires National Wildlife Refuge. Small flycatcher (not identified). Bell’s Vireo (heard). A rare, a...

Writing Down the Desert: March 2011
http://writingdownthedesert.blogspot.com/2011_03_01_archive.html
Writing Down the Desert. A Life in the Sonoran Southwest. Tuesday, March 22, 2011. Cactus wren greeting a new, rain-washed, day. There is nothing like rain in the desert, especially when it is desperately needed, and we are at a time of the year when rain, any rain, is unexpected, and therefore doubly appreciated. A windy day yesterday seemed to hold nothing but desert dust until the smell of rain rode in though an open window. The morning after a cleansing, nourishing rain is a cause for celebration.
