Well I was planning on having a recap post ready by now, but that didn’t happen. I needed Monday to decompress from the wet Ravenswood adventures and had my muscles unkinked with a massage gift certificate. Then I had to get a birthstone commission completed, which was a lot of fun. The past two days […]

We’ve had some glorious days, but the season is definitely changing. I’m bummed the butterflies were so sparse this year compared to the last 2 summers, but hopefully I will see more than sulphurs and cabbage whites next year.

We had a Harvest Moon recently and I decided to test my birthday-gifted camera with it. I had a hard time taking night photos with my LX3, but the Panasonic Lumix 7 creates lovely atmospheric sky photos (I’ve done no editing to these shots).

Last week we had zero degree weather—not counting the windchill factor. I tend to forget the ‘realfeel’ notification and regret that a lot this time of year. Best to be overdressed than underdressed. On Tuesday I heeded the notion and set out for my little downtown venture. First I saw Backyard Monsters at the Peggy Notebaert […]
