i slept until the middle of the afternoon after not getting much good sleep last nigt. spent the rest of the day napping and looking through great pics here in the dailies and smug. the chores are getting to the desperate stage but... we had rain all day and it was so gray i could hardly see half my normal view so i decided to forget any outside pic and i sure don't have the head for an inside pic so you're getting this that i found when i was cleaning out some old files over the holidays. it was shot at the same time as a previous daily some of you may remember (link below). i'm going to see what dailies there are new this morning and then to bed. enjoy your day

the little boss was very excited to see this, her first ever large wild butterfly, and kept running to the backdoor every couple minutes to check on it. we all made trips back to see it many times while working the lunch shift. we don't get many like this in the city and really enjoyed our special treat

1000+ year old sitka spruce and DOD
quinault, wa

in memoriam rollin cooke walton, Dear Old Dad, gone to be with the Lord he loved 08/06/08

DOD always tried to encourage and help everyone. his love and compassion were a blessing to people beyond count. he was always ready with a helping hand and encouraging word. he had his faults, as do we all, but always took responsibility for his actions and tried to make amends if he had wronged. beloved by many, he will be sorely missed. DOD passed peacefully surrounded by family and friends who sang him some favorite hymns as he slipped from the bonds of this earth. gone but never forgotten r.i.p. DOD

this picture was shot at the end of september 2007 on the last, of many, trips that DOD and i took together. it is one of my faves of him. there have been many great men throughout history but i can think of no one i'd be prouder to call father.  enlarge for best viewing and please click a thumbs up; i'd like this to be number one of the most popular pics of mine as a small tribute to a fine man
