May we all see something like this soon…something that’s green and not covered with snow.

George Harrison would’ve been 67 today had lung cancer not taken him in 2001. I join millions of others in a love for the Beatles, but George has always been my favorite. Maybe because he was the “quiet Beatle,” but most definitely because of his collaborations with best friend and *ahem* my musical crush, Eric Clapton, as well as his guitar sound. In the early 70′s, Harrison had said that he was only allowed one or two songs per album, and that it would’ve taken many, many more Beatles albums before he could showcase all that he had written. So, when the band decided to break up (in his opinion, at no fault of Yoko Ono) he was ready to do his own thing. I’ve put together a new playlist of some of my favorites that he either wrote, sang or was involved with somehow, so if you’re a fan, go take a listen. It is really very good stuff. If drjay were here and not off yoga-ing in the “Rich Coast,” he could give me a lesson in George Harrison 101…which reminds me…today is drjay’s birthday, too! Happy Birthday, guys. Many thanks to W for the fine photo. February 24th, 2010
I was recently away for almost two weeks, with spotty internet access, yet managed to post nearly every day. Now that I am here at home with all the amenities, I can’t seem to post with any regularity at all. I have no excuse except that I can’t seem to get out of my own way. I hope to soon be back to normal…whatever that is. I took this while waiting at a red light on 14th St. in Washington, DC. Had I been stopped one light sooner, I would’ve captured an unobstructed Washington Monument. February 20th, 2010
Once Lucy starts hitting the ground during a walk, it’s a sure sign that she’s winding down. Here she is at the Shirlington dog park that runs alongside the Four Mile Run creek in Arlington, Virginia, and is right across the road from the upscale Shirlington Village. The other side of the park is lined with old warehouses. I hope to write more about Shirlington at a later time, as there is some history there for me. February 18th, 2010
A frozen, snow-covered lake in a nearby neighborhood and one of Lucy’s favorite haunts. Go to SkyWatch Friday and find skies from all over the world. While you’re there, why not leave a link to your own skies so all can enjoy? Many thanks to Klaus, Sandy, Wren, Fishing Guy, Louise and Sylvia for hosting this most ethereal meme! |
