I’ve heard so many things about West Texas over the years, opinions seem to vary between indifference to outright vehement bashing, but I’ve always had a soft spot in my heart for wide open places and huge skies. I hitched up my britches and Hubsand and I decided to do a mini driving vacation to Marfa, [...]
This tree is about 15 minutes from my house (which, by all standards is not very far out here) and I am just totally in love with it.
I’ve taken pictures of it before, but I keep coming back to it. Last month, I had a eureka moment when I thought about capturing the moon setting [...]

All my husband’s clatter was sweet and cute this morning, though I know he was frustrated and trying to be quiet; I needed to get up anyways. He came in to say goodbye and kiss me like every morning before [...]
“I had a dream I stood beneath an orange sky…”
