HumpDayHaiku in Auspicious April

Is it just me or is this year flying by?

04 Apr 2018: Sunset chasing

11 Apr 2018: Roadtrip!

We went to Mammoth this last weekend. It's spring conditions and this year is the first time since I've been there that I've ever seen so little snow. I can't say it looks that much different from when we were here in February, BUT, man, is this a beautiful place.

So it's tax day, take 2! Glad I finished yesterday!

I've been to Torrey Pines State Reserve 4 of the past 7 days. How blessed can a girl get?

#HumpDayHaiku in Serendipitous September

September 2nd:

Socal has been experiencing a heat wave for a few weeks. It's finally starting to cool down and has even been overcast for a few days. Here's my version of a "rain dance" plea:


Bring on some showers!

And because I'm a bit of a Nerd, I drew the moon to reflect its phase tonight: a waning gibbous.  ðŸŒ–

September 9th:

Today is Teddy Bear Day! I was thinking about what to draw for this week's #humpdayhaiku when I remembered this art exhibit I saw in San Diego in 2009. The. 1000 Teddies project. Philipp Jordan is the German artist that created it and I thought I'd pay tribute to him for it since you'll see that I borrowed his idea, just in a different medium. Looks like he has a new project on display: http://teddiesinspace.com/

In any case, I took a couple dozen pictures and decided to use that as the basis of my haiku since it's Teddy Bear Day.

Here's a photo from that exhibit:

And here's my haiku:

September 16th:

I'm a self proclaimed sunset chaser.  I go to the beach to catch the sunset as often as I can. Lately the waves have been huge, and surfers are out on droves. They inspired this week's #humpdayhaiku


September 23rd:

The heat wave has yet to subside but it's officially the first day of fall! Here's hoping that we get some cooler weather soon.


September 30th:

Beantown is my home away from home after I spent two short years here during grad school at BU.

Here I attempted to merge a few of Boston's icons, the Bunker Hill Memorial Bridge and the Public Garden ducks.

I could probably write a ton of haikus for this city, because it's awesome and there is so much to it!

So I've been AWOL because I've been traveling... For now, I have some pictures to share, but stories will follow soon...
