Americana filled the air as I headed out on my walk this morning.  It was quiet but you could see the preparations being made for celebrations.  I'm still avoiding crowds, in fact I've been enjoying the quiet.  I believe the quiet helps with the healing. It feels like I'm rebuilding strength.

City Hall looked pretty, there was a pancake breakfast that was starting and a bubble machine!

Pretty clouds and lighting.  Yahoo!

I love meandering around historic Monterey and the hidden gardens that exist there.

I miss the private jokes that Phil and I shared.  We shared many.  Every time I see Gladiola's I think of him.  When he asked me what kind of flower?  I always answered Gladiola because he had made fun of me in the past over a mistaken identity.  I miss that look in his eye.

California's first theater.

Losing the down and getting beautiful blue feathers.

I love Scrub Jays, they have big personalities.

To Phil

I miss you.

I have been working on getting the blog to 100,000 views.  Since your birthday the views have been increasing.  When you first told me that the blog would 100,000 views, I laughed but told you that I would try.  Honey, we are very close.

Your story is being told.

I love you.

(click on image below to online store)

It has been sunny, temperate and that is good for the mood.  I enjoyed my walk this morning, there was poppies, seal lions and sea anemones.  I have been walking about 2 -3 hours each morning, it is the only time that I feel at peace.  Walking by the ocean heals, calms my soul and offers me the opportunity to be in the moment.  I don't know what I would do without my walk time.  I find joy in the search for images for the blog.  Grateful for the beauty that surrounds me.  The sound of the ocean, the beauty of the flowers and the behavior of the wildlife is all music to me.

Fascinated and pulled to the light, esp since it is usually before daylight that I get out in the morning.

The sea lions were swimming holding onto each other.

Sea anemones as the waves came in and out of the tidal pools.

Yahooooo!  Poppies and Princess flowers.

Today an interesting coincidence happened.  About this time last year Phil, Noelle and I was shopping at the Cancer thrift store.  Phil found a sweater he wanted me to get.  He got very persistent that I should get it, he thought I would be cute in it.  I choose not to get it as we were going through a very difficult time and it didn't seem practical.   Phil seemed downhearted about it and a couple of days later he made me go back to see if the sweater was still there.  It was not.  Today I was looking for a cardigan on ebay, I typed in bulky sweater and guess what came up -- the sweater he had picked out, the very same color, the style and the size I needed.  It made me cry a little, I made an offer and it was accepted.  The sweater that Phil wanted for me is on the way.  Serendipity.

For Phil:

I love and miss you so very much.

Thank you for the sweater!
