A few years ago when I visited in Sedona, Arizona, we had a group of Native American dancers come to Oak Creek Canyon and perform for us by the creek. This was Tyrese, one of the dancers, who was young and very skilled in the Hoop Dance. 8/12/21 www.sparhawkphotography.com
Unlike some of our Smug friends, I don't have a big beautiful garden, but rather just a small patio. A few weeks ago I spent several days chopping back the ivy and other plants that had so overgrown my space. Since I've gotten it cleared out, I have been SO enjoying sitting out there in the morning, writing in my journal, sipping coffee, and listening to the birds chirping. I've even had a few butterflies come for a visit. This morning I was photographing a couple of flowers, and noticed my chair, journal and coffee, and grabbed a quick shot of it. So this is my morning place, while it's still in shade, and before it gets too hot to be outside. It's nothing special, not a lot of great flowers, no stream like Donna has, but it feels special when I'm sitting there. 7/15/21 www.sparhawkphotography.com
