The Backyard

The baby was pretty fussy today. But he did nap several times. During one of his naps, I took my work out into the back yard to appreciate the beautiful breeze and temperature. These images are from the backyard. This is about as much of a garden as I could handle. Less is more in this case with my "black" thumb.

This is inauguration day. I'm speechless.

Oh, by the way, tomorrow (Wed, Jan 21) I'm beginning an online course for Writing for Magazines. I couldn't find a course for Writing for Newspapers, so I thought this would be the next best thing. My goal (as if I need another goal in my life) is to apply for a stringer position with the local newspapers when I get back to NY. I know that papers and magazines are more likely to accept images if they're accompanied by text. Ergo, the writing course. In honor of that, I've begun another blog... check it out once in a while. It's www.trainingawriter.blogspot.com
