The Big Smoke
Often seen as grey, slabbed in concrete, glass and steel. It’s more than that. Londinium. As they called it when the Romans officially made it a city. The Big Smoke. Teething with curious architecture, from Roman and Tudor to Victorian and now the modern skyscrapers in the east. Rich with maze-like cobbled streets. Even after 26 years of living here, I am always finding new places. All you have to do is take two lefts and a right, maybe two rights and then a final left and you’ll end up somewhere completely new. Some tiny Jack-The-Ripper style alleyway opening up in cavernous courtyards with food stalls and shops and coffee and drinks. I will never get bored of this city. I will never get bored of the views, the people, the bustle. It’s not just that everywhere is within walking distance, despite the immensity of the city, it’s that walking from place to place is beautiful.

Pure Adventure
I had come to call them "The Guns of August" - the thunderstorms that came to the Las Vegas valley each year in last of the hot months. Summer seldom leaves quietly, in desert.

My first visit to a tiny lake in the State of Great Lakes
My husband often mentions how my memory works. He says I keep the memory of the last two weeks and forget everything that happened before. What he means is, I forget the details of the events. I agree with him, oftentimes I only remember the feeling of an event. Was it joyful? Was it frightening? Hurtful perhaps? And everything else remains a blur. This works fantastic for him because he has a great memory and in cases of fights, he can argue mentioning accurate facts, where I memorize only how I felt.
