These Buddhist prayer flags are waving in the soft breeze at my friend's house in Carmel Valley.

Skywatch Friday: Prayers in the wind

This photo was taken in Carmel Valley on the back deck of my friend's house.

There was just the slightest breeze that day. Just enough to carry prayers to their destinations.

Skywatch Friday: Afterglow

The afternoon sky was filling in with wispy clouds as the sun went down over the trees and hills. This was not enhanced in any way. Just look at this glow!

Skywatch Friday: Pine Framed Valley View

This was a glorious warm day in Carmel Valley last Sunday. So perfect for my friend's 65th birthday celebration! We were in the treetops enjoying the ever-changing sky.

Cactus Monday: A Day in the Valley

Yesterday was a glorious, sunny day with temperatures in the high seventies, but the best part of it was that I had the day off to myself. I have not had an entire day off in nearly a year! I took my dog Emma, some blank ATC cards, a pencil and and few markers and various reading material and headed for Carmel Valley. It was three hours of relaxation and bliss. I did this atc in about a minute, keeping it simple in black, white and blue.

After I draw as many atc's as there are members, I'm going to shuffle the cards, pick your names out of a hat and mail one to each of you! It will be a surprise to see which one is coming your way!

Here are a couple of photos of the park I went to yesterday. The first picture is Emma enjoying the moment and the view, the other one is the view from the table where I sat and made the atc.

Happy Cactus Monday from a very relaxed member!!
