Places & things that inspire me

I think you need a page to deposit all the swirling, twirling wonderful things that you fall in love with in a day. Sometimes you fall in love with a place, a pattern, the way something has aged, or just the way the light is falling as the day fades out of the sky.

The photos, below, are my own taken in San Francisco, Sonoma, along the Oregon coastline, and throughout Italy. The photograph of the cross is from the Coliseum in Rome. My favorite picture of the group is from the Pet cemetery under the Golden Gate Bridge. I found the cemetery after a very long 3 hour walk. No money leftover to call a cab, I just headed toward the Golden Gate Bridge, and hoped to get there before the sun went down. Thank you to the golfers who kindly bought me a snickers bar when I illegally crossed through the Presidio Golf Course. That candy bar surely saved me from starvation.​
