As Summer Visits.....


         The scene above, summer evening in the park on the square in Paso Robles captures my sense of summer spirit.

        The busking singer songwriter, a young man full of dreams, children at play, families strolling, green foliage, blue sky and a gentle, peaceful scene.

        Summer is still a time of hope, for ripening gardens, an improved game, no matter the sport, leisure with friends, evenings of simple relaxation and reflection. The scene speaks to me of that essence and it is evocative of a simple time, still possible.

        Lana's orchid cactus's have celebrated summer's arrival with an array of giant blooms. They are dazzling.

        So we celebrate the solstice, and the days of summer with a few scenes of the way it is around here, on the California central coast, a place of "endless summer" in so many ways.

        As members of the US Senate ponder their post summer plans it might be good for the Judiciary Committee to rally an investigation of sitting Supreme Court Justices, all of them if they prefer, but certainly Thomas and Alito who may well have proven themselves unfit to serve. As the House January 6 Committee presented a document to the nation and future generations, perhaps it is time to look into the snake pit on the high court. 







The photo above and below were taken by Lana while tending to her garden.

While here she tends, harvesting fava beans.


An evening in another garden, as Jill Knight and Eric continue to create the score of our lives in Cambria.

Sweet Summer....

    I hope that your summer is peaceful, gentle and includes lazy naps.

   See you down the trail.

THE WEEKENDER :) FLOATING CARS & DREAMS

A COASTAL SNOOZE
     Saturday or Sunday was always good for a couple of things-getting outside and sneaking a nap, usually in a hammock or lawn lounger.
      Our first stop this WEEKENDER :) is a place where snoozes and snoozers combine.
The Dreamy Scene
 The coast north of San Simeon
 where the big boys-the elephant seals-snore

   These guys excel in napping.

A DREAM COME TRUE?
Would you believe a "floating" car?
Enjoy this ride.
Catch a nap and have a dreamy weekend.
See you down the trail.

THE WEEKENDER :) NAP TIME FUNNIES & SOMETHING EXTRAORDINARY

THIS IS GOOD FOR YOU
     Those naps we took as kids were good for us then, and so they are now.  So are smiles. And we know that new thoughts  cause our brains to continue their elasticity. So we've wrapped them all up for you in this WEEKENDER :)
        My friends Beverly and Brian were the first to send
our first video.  You don't need to speak German to enjoy.
Here's a shot for the Luddites against our amazing technology and in an amusing 30 seconds.
Coming up below a mind blowing video
but first, a little Nap Time humor.
DAY BOOK
NAP TIME AT LOW TIDE

A lazy Central California day-ideal for napping.
WHILE THE BIG GUYS DO IT, HERE'S A LITTLE CAT NAPPING

The Further Adventures of Luke and Hemingway
Any Where, Any Time is Nap Time

      "What do you think Hemingway, time for a nap?"
      "My eyes are so heavy.  I just want lay here. What about you?"
     "Think I'll doze just standing here pal. Zzzz"
      "Zzzzzzzzz, um yea. Zzzzzzzzz"
    An old friend, a former network newsman and later college professor said at his retirement he read that napping was good for you.  So he said he thought he'd experiment with it and told his friends not to call him for a couple of hours after lunch because he would be in the laboratory, doing research.

    UNLESS YOU'VE SEEN THIS VIDEO, YOU'VE NEVER SEEN ANYTHING LIKE THIS
I suggest you watch this on full YouTube at the
largest screen size you can.
Wow!!
     Have great weekend.  See you down the trail.
