kings island
the car thermometer read 102 degrees on the way to kings island. crazy to go, but we were visiting special out-of-towners. the new swing, windseeker, goes up 301 feet before going around. the view from way up is beautiful, but i didn't want to drop my camera.

bridges
i went running in the heat with my crazies - people from Bob Roncker's Running Spot - and stopped to take these shots with my phone. The Ohio River is beautiful.

improvised life
a beautiful online thing - the manifesto at theimprovisedlife.com. allowing mistakes, testing new approaches - learning, essentially.

When you are in a situation
where nothing that has
happened in the past tells
you what to do, there is only
one course of action: Improvise

beautiful book- kids make dinner.
Pumpkin juice from the Hogwarts Express, Kreacher's onion soup, Mrs. Weasley's rosemary redskin potatoes, and chocolate pudding for dessert. An everyday joy, compliments of the children.

Starting slow...
I've always wanted to make a picture book with the remarkable beauty of things - regular stuff - usable, made or natural. It's time to capture this beautiful stuff.
