Nothing beats a sun-warmed rock on a chilly day. If you look close, you can see the turtle’s smile. 🐢

That little Cuban curly-tailed lizard from the other day has grown, enough so that his bass-clef tail is now worthy of his name.

A small brown lizard has emerged from the porch garden to bask on sun-warmed planks.

Well this day definitely warmed up. How do you resist a cool breeze in the warm sun on a beautiful fall day? 🌞

The ridge line of the mountains on the east side of Lake McDonald is the dark area at the bottom of the photo. Above the mountains is a layer of clouds in shadow. Those clouds are topped by another layer brightened and warmed by the light of the setting sun.

Good afternoon, Jean! It was a night of 48 last and with all my windows partially open it was a snuggly 61 indoors. But the sun was bright, the humidity low and I’m not running heat or AC, thank goodness! Warmed up to 67 so another day/night with the apartment open! Wheeeeee!

Inspired by the golden light and the glow of the granite along the shore. The air was filled with that unmistakable scent of sun-warmed pine needles. A time to relax and take a deep breath.

I guess this is a nice way to start the #morning and drink my #Coffee. We warmed up this #little #bumblebee in the #sun, and he immediately #flew over and started gathering pollen on these #Cosmos #flowers with #monarchs under them. #Butterflies.

Jacuzzi Winery
Yes, the same family that gave you the modern hot tub.
Anyways, to make a long story short. They eventually ended up grape farming in Berkeley California and eventually made their way to Sonoma County.

Jacuzzi Winery

You’re standing in front of a rustic winery bathed in warm, late-afternoon light. The building is made of aged stone and weathered wood, giving it a timeless, handcrafted feel—like something built with care and meant to last. The textures are rich: rough stone that might feel cool and gritty to the touch, and wooden beams that have soaked up decades of sun and rain.
The architecture is classic and inviting, with arched doorways and terracotta roof tiles that hint at Mediterranean influence. There’s a sense of quiet elegance, not flashy or modern, but grounded and earthy. Imagine the scent of crushed grapes lingering in the air, mingling with the faint aroma of oak barrels and sun-warmed soil.
In the foreground, there may be a path or courtyard—perhaps cobblestone or gravel—leading you toward the entrance. It feels like a place where stories are told over wine, where laughter echoes off the walls, and where the land itself is part of the experience.
The light in the image is golden, casting soft shadows and highlighting the textures of the stone and wood. It’s the kind of light that makes everything feel a little more magical, a little more alive.

Joshua Tree National Park

Where the path meets sun-warmed stone, stillness begins.
Sky opens like breath returned to wind.
Your spirit moves with the rhythm of light and silence.
The journey becomes its own kind of sanctuary.

I wish I ran like a dog

eyes up
faith in a stride
tang of sun-warmed
iron-rich earth
huffed across my tongue

to be sick at
alum lilies
vomit up this energy
howl a dirge &

be done

to cut at birth
needled teeth
loveworn

to forgive and never forget

Starting to insulate my container #garden with packed in mulch that absorbs spilled water, will break down over time and I'll keep adding to it, until I have a hill of compost I can plant herbs in. I'm also adding little habitats, and someone moved in!

#gardening #frog #treeFrog #nature #wildLife

A window box container full of wild violets, a cucamelon vine, mulch, and a tree frog surrounded by other pots and mulch. To the upper right of the window box is a clay pot I filled with leaves and a bit of curved bark that makes a cave for him to hide in, and covered with leaves. He's a chill guy who has hung around in this area I putter in frequently for over a day, and let me move the pot in while he sat there.

Gray treefrog (Dryophytes versicolor), colored a light muddy tan, mottled with darker grey. When I found him yesterday, I watered him and offered him a bit of bark to hide in, and sat nearby sketching. So, today he didn't seem as nervous when I got close to move in a potential hiding spot and took some better pics (yesterday's were blurry).

Same guy from the side, showing a hint of his gold eye. He let me get within a few inches for this one, and only stirred a little. He seems to understand modeling is payment for a damp, safe little habitat where he will be pampered by some weirdo in black.

The container garden on this side, showing a couple of rubbermaid bins and pots with a garden gnome and a bunch of stones. One of the containers has hopniss, tomatoes, garlic, and spring onions. The other has 5 smaller containers with roses, cuttings from this summer who won't be transplanted until spring. I am filling their container with mulch, and will be draping plastic over the area. The rocks hold back the growing pile of mulch, and will help retain heat from the sun in the winter. Moss gardens soak up the moisture at the edges of the mulch hill I'm building, and I have a growing cave of sticks that will provide shelter near both cool moss and dirt, or stones that have warmed in the sun.

Juvenile marine iguanas stand at attention on sun-warmed volcanic rock, blending into shadowed stone, while adults bask boldly on the wooden walkway, unbothered, exposed, & unafraid of lurking predators.

Ghost doesn’t even try to hide the small smile that quirks in the corner of his own lips. “Maybe because someone left the door open.” He takes a step forward, the sun warmed wood smooth beneath his feet.

A pause between the sun and the swarm — warmth, rock, and the hush before the world wakes.

The image shows a woman lying on a large, sun-warmed rock beside a body of deep blue water, bathed in the golden light of late afternoon. She’s wearing a small red bikini that catches the sun with a soft sheen, its color vibrant against the muted browns and grays of the stone. Her skin glows warmly in the light, a mixture of pale and honey tones, and the low sun creates gentle shadows that trace along her ribs, abdomen, and the curves of her legs. Her posture is relaxed—both arms bent behind her head, eyes closed, lips faintly curved as though enjoying the heat and breeze. Her right leg extends straight while the left bends slightly at the knee, toes pointed and resting lightly on the rock. The rock itself has a weathered texture, scattered with pale lichen spots and faint cracks, sloping down toward the lower left corner of the frame. In the background, the water ripples with small, rhythmic waves, darkening to navy where the light doesn’t reach and shimmering with gold near the shore. There are no other people or objects visible; the setting feels private, still, and timeless—just a woman and nature at ease with each other. The overall tone of the photograph is sensual but peaceful, capturing the quiet satisfaction of sunlight on skin and the steady pulse of the sea. It feels like a moment held between movement and rest, caught in that perfect mix of solitude, warmth, and calm that comes when the day has already been lived and nothing more is required except to breathe and feel.

Autumn drifts in with a quiet heat. In a sun-warmed kitchen, he leans with effortless ease—robe parted, skin kissed by amber light. The silver cross at his throat glints like a secret promise, a ceramic cup warm in one hand, the other tracing the window frame as if framing the world itself.

The Arrival of Autumn

Autumn drifts in with a quiet heat. In a sun-warmed kitchen, he leans with effortless ease—robe parted, skin kissed by amber light. The silver cross at his throat glints like a secret promise, a ceramic cup warm in one hand, the other tracing the window frame as if framing the world itself. His gaze lingers—commanding, intimate, a whisper of desire in the mellow fall glow. Here, in the heart of the season, temptation feels like home.
