January 6

 We didn't get a lot of holiday baking done, so here I am trying to perfect some Double Chocolate cookies. They turned out better this second time - a few dark chocolate chips in lieu of the m&ms the recipe calls for.

Camellia's are starting to bloom. 

 I am always amazed at their beauty and color in the dead of a California winter.

January 2nd

A frosty start to the day.  I am going to take a photo of the backyard each Wednesday morning to chronicle the changes throughout the year.  January 2nd was very cold, frosty and you can see hardly anything blooming in the yard.

Jan 1

I'm embarking on a 365 project for the year 2013.  So each day I will take a photo - the hard part will be keeping up and remembering to lug the camera around and find new, interesting things to photograph.

We start the year off with a view of the little path and bright red berries that great me as I go out to the garage - aka studio - to work.  I love the bright red against the green. happy new year!

Over the river & through the woodd

On our way to Lake Tahoe. Spent several weekends at this fairgrounds for car shows!
