Spring Break: Morning of Day 2

The list is still listed.  It also lies in front of me with a few additions.

Up at 5:30 to the tune of the coffee pot, and get Josh up so he can go shoot rockets in the middle of the desert.  Did you know that you need to file some kind of flight plan with the FAA to do this??  He took a camera, so maybe we will have something new and different to post in the near future.  Also, watching the eagle webcam, and those little eaglets are now at a gawky stage – big feet, big beaks, and clumsy-looking.  Pretty funny!  And a fish for breakfast, probably a trout.

My studio is on the eastern side of the house, so the morning light comes streaming in through my cruddy windows.  The redbud tree is right outside, and the light passing through the deep wine-colored leaves makes for wonderful shadows.  The leaves look like little hanging hearts.

Fuchsia Redbud

A few planned items for the day – besides the daily chores – are to photograph a cute little Phalaenopsis orchid which just bloomed for the first time in a couple of years, and to get outdoors.  There is a native plant sale happening nearby, so that might be a fun thing to look at.  I also want to get some sewing done and pull out some paints or ink and take a brush for a twirl.  And call up some people I haven’t spoken to in ages.  Meanwhile, Lightroom is importing all my pictures.  Maybe I should read a bit in my book, too?
