(11 am. – promoted by ek hornbeck)
It doesn’t take much….. one of my former Florida friends posted a FB link to his flickr batch of Vizcaya photos. sigh. I’ve got work to do!! If I had time, I’d write some dreamy wandering rambles, but… oh well.
Dream on. Open Thread.
This wonderful image is from a promotional website not my friend’s pic … but I love this photo of the Stone Barge at Vizcaya. I could sit there all day. You have to imagine the heat and the sea salt smells and sounds of seagulls. Drift away.
On a practical level, Vizcaya’s Stone Barge acts as a breakwater against tidal surges.
On an artistic level, the limestone sculpture extends the art and architecture of the main house and gardens beyond the shoreline and into the waters of Biscayne Bay.
I am so not in the mood for any kind of “Holiday”. Fortunately, we’re not doing any big deals. Maybe I’ll take some time to try to learn to navigate on my husband’s Mac (Im PC) and get started with learning the new Photoshop he just loaded. He has a DVD product in the works, so I’ll have to get busy assisting with that. Not looking forward to it.
So. What’s up with you Dharmanuts? Holiday busy-ness? or orphan mode?

usually has us over for Thanksgiving with her large circle of friends. She makes the turkey & gravy and we all bring desserts and sides.
Tomorrow she is having surgery (hysterectomy) for recently discovered uterine cancer. 🙁
If there are no complications they will let her go home on Thursday. At the request of her husband, I will be cooking a turkey (my first one!) on Friday for them, my husband, and one other close friend. We’ll all be thankful that she makes a full recovery.
Pic from a trip to Oregon in 2002. We were walking through a botanic garden and this gorgeous cat came up to her – wanting some love and attention. That’s dear old Dad on left.
for the viscaya….
i got my first real kiss there one magical day long long ago….
