Purple and orange

My friend and Alexander teacher asked for some photos of our garden, specifically the campanulas (campanulae?) and day lilies for a painting project. I decided to share them with you as well. :)

Deluge forecast for today then HHH for the next 5 days or so with temps at or above 90. Fingers crossed we're close enough to the coast to get the sea breeze they're also forecasting that will keep that area in the 80s. With dewpoints around 70 that's still too hot.

Our house 2018-05-18 to 2018-06-26

Photos taken in & around our house between May 18th and yesterday. Including a Magritte skyscape, an a possible Martian sighting. See if you can guess which is which. :)

Now gone



Living room light




Loved the balloons & the ornamental onions




Our late, lamented locust tree that came down in March.





Remind you of someone?

Could be a Martian in disguise.



Mimsy being lovey, dovey trying to get me to feed her.




The black & white cushion is a Kolomon Moser design for
the Wiener Werkstätte that I brought back from Vienna.






Local designer who set up shop nearby.


Damned window reflection


Nap time

2018-03-15 My trip to the MFA

Took a swing by the museum on my way to/from somewhere - an MD appt? Don't remember. But here are the results. First stop the Schiele/Klimt Drawn show for a quick breeze through, stopping by the information desk that always has beautiful bouquets, then a couple shots en route to lunch in the cafeteria near a window an a couple photos from the Escher show.
