Yesterday you saw a picture of me playing my mountain dulcimer. Did I convey how much I love that dulcimer in the post? Let's put it this way - in that old clichéd question "If your house was on . . .

Sunday was another of what the Irish would call a "soft day" - overcast, humid, mild, and occasional light showers. I went back down to Ballard Park to see if I could convince some songbirds . . .

I never got around to creating a photo essay last Thursday after my hike; I just published some individual photos. Well, I fooled around with some shots I originally didn't think worked and came up . . .

Today I decided to focus on using the Super Macro setting on my camera. I got the idea when I saw a bunch of Reindeer Lichen and Haircap Moss growing amid each other on my favorite overlook in Ballard . . .

These flowers were growing in crannies in a stone wall along Memorial Blvd.; I put the camera in macro mode and fired away. These two shots are the best from the bunch. The pink flowers are Heal All and . . .

Today was gorgeous - sunny and relatively warm (meaning in the 40s). There was a bit of a breeze, so the birds were laying low. Mostly I concentrated on trees and such as I wandered along the trails. . . .

Spring is busting out all over Newport. I went down to Ballard Park and Gooseneck Cove, naturally, and then headed over to the Cliff Walk at Ruggles Ave. The surf sounded loud, so I had gome over to Ruggles . . .
