Evening, Wisdom and Beauty

April prepares her green traffic light and the world thinks Go.
Christopher Morley

It's spring fever. That is what the name of it is. And when you've got it, you want - oh, you don't quite know what it is you do want, but it just fairly makes your heart ache, you want it so!
Mark Twain

There are two ways of spreading light: to be the candle or the mirror that
reflects it.
Edith Wharton

Love the Wharton quote.

I'm having quite the week. I did a video deposition all day yesterday. I was hammered!

Gorgeous shots Sylvia, spring is the best time of the year, especially for you guys after having such a cold winter. Love the blossom trees, it's a pity they only flower for such a short time. Your new header is great although Sam looks like he's balanced a little precariously up there!!

What Can I Say?

What Can I Say?
I'm interested in almost everything. Use to like to travel, but it's too expensive now. I take Tai Chi classes, swim, volunteer in a Jump-start program for pre-schoolers. I'm an avid reader and like nearly everyone these days I follow politics avidly. I'm a former teacher and Special Projects Coordinator for a Telecommunications company, Assistant to the President of a Japanese silicon wafer manufacturing company. Am now enjoying retirement -- most of the time. I have two daughters, one son-in-law and two sons scattered all over the country. No grandchildren.
