the good book

The good book accompanied by a good coffee.

local mural

The day I decided to walk home from the botanical garden was the day that I first fully appreciated this local mural. I don't think I could have taken these photos had I been in a car...

wisdom from Vincent

Santa Clara Street

 ...the way it looked that day in May.

trail lore (as opposed to trail mix)

The last best book I ever read.

another great vista...

 ...from the Ventura Botanical Gardens. A pop of color in the May gloom.

copal incense from Merida...

...an aromatic tree resin from Mesoamerica.
