A Californian standing for equal rights for all humanity. I find restorative peace amongst my garden and the wild spaces around me. I hope these images bring you a little moment of peace in these troubling times.
Lupine cat is keeping my feet warm.

My sister and I are both re-reading Little Women during the holiday season. This is the copy that my Grandma gave to me when I was 12. I didn’t realize at the time what a treasure this story is. #littlewomen

I love it when the sun shines through the rain.

Starting a new book today: The Loch Ness Papers by Paige Shelton. It sounds like a fun, cozy autumnal story set in the Scottish Highlands. The cover literally says “A Scottish Bookshop Mystery”! I’ve got fragrant candles lit, a cup of coffee, and a view of the woods outside. Happy autumn! #cozybooks

I finished putting together the Garden House book nook by Rolife, and it is so darling. A little glowing happy spot in my day. #rolife #booknook

One more to share today. A little post from my garden: ‘Fata Morgana’ Scabiosa (a pale colored cultivar of Pincushion), mums, and Rosilla/Sneezeweed (Helenium puberulum). They look like little whimsical lollipops! #bloomscrolling #aposyaday #flowersfromthegarden

Take a walk through the woods with me! #california #santacruzmountains #henrycowellredwoods

I didn’t feel like taking an evening walk, but my daughter wanted to, so I went. I am so glad I did! The light through the leaves looked magical.

Some One-sided Pussypaws (Calyptridium monospermum). They are so light colored that when the bright mountain sunshine is full at noon, they blend in with the granite sand and faded pine needles. #californianativeplants #sierranevada

I went off the trail to check out the river, and I am so glad I did because I found this sweet flower: Calochortus leichtlinii, Leichtlin’s Mariposa Lily. Olympic Valley, Sierra Nevada Mountains, California. #californianativeplants #sierranevada
