FOTD – Holly with berries Early in the year, our holly tree looked unhappy. We went to Koopman’s and they gave us an anti-fungal spray. Within a day, it was a very happy tree again. This is good because there are at least three or four birds nesting in the tree and I would hate … Continue reading HOLLY WITH BERRIES| Serendipity – Seeking Intelligent Life on Earth
Festival of Leaves ~ Color on the Mumford Until a few days ago, there was no color in the trees. Then, overnight, I started to see bright trees, patches of red, gold, and orange. Yesterday I took a few pictures in our own backyard. Today, we spent half an hour by the Mumford Dam — our … Continue reading FALL COMES TO THE VALLEY| Serendipity – Seeking Intelligent Life on Earth

CMMC October Close Up or Macro I had been flirting with this Leica 9mm 4/3 lens for a while. I’ve never owned a super-wide lens except for a fisheye that I almost never used because I was never entirely sure what to do with it. This lens at 9mm (18mm per 35mm) isn’t exactly a macro, … Continue reading MACROS WITH A SUPER-WIDE LENS| Serendipity – Seeking Intelligent Life on Earth
FOTD – Pink Chrysanthemums Today I can see the changing colors in the leaves. Not yet dramatic, but obvious if you are looking. Meanwhile, the chrysanthemums are beginning to open. I wish they would go more slowly and maybe last longer. The sun came out last night just before we faded into the evening. We’ve … Continue reading FALL FLOWERS: MUMS & MORE| Serendipity – Seeking Intelligent Life on Earth
I knew something was wrong with my body before I had done any tests, I also knew my computer was pretty well cooked before I went to the hospital. It had been hit by a nasty Trojan which my software cleanser did not fully destroy. I know because it told me so and suggested other … Continue reading HANGING LOOSE BY THE DEVIL’S DOOR, ENGULFED IN MISTY MADNESS| Serendipity – Seeking Intelligent Life on Earth
Flu shots are available to most. They have been for a while. I got my flu shot and my COVID booster last month at the same time. I know people who will not do it that way. Some friends are afraid they will have a sore arm. Some are afraid they will be sick and … Continue reading THE SEASONAL SHOTS| Serendipity – Seeking Intelligent Life on Earth
Three years ago — and it feels like even longer — I drew everything. Including foliage. And the birds that show up in the fall, especially grackles. We got hundreds of them this year and they are beautiful. They didn’t visit for a couple of years and I was afraid I’d never see them again. … Continue reading MY SKETCHBOOK: A JOURNEY IN AUTUMN| Serendipity – Seeking Intelligent Life on Earth
I feel like a forgotten soldier off the old Siegfried line. Think of old black and white movies. Slippery gray mud. You can slide down slimy, gray mud from every jeep. I believe this still IS the same world in which I grew up, without chapters. Or a binding. Or an editor or proofreader. Like … Continue reading OH PLEASE, DON’T BRING LULU!| Serendipity – Seeking Intelligent Life on Earth
The year I was fifteen, I started my senior year of high school. That September (1962), I was sitting and watching television. I found a biggish lump near my right ankle. I checked the other leg. N…| Serendipity - Seeking Intelligent Life on Earth

Share your World: 11th August The weather has cooled down. The tomatoes on the deck, unmolested (so far) by birds or beasts, are turning red. I doubt they’ll make it to the table because we e…| Serendipity - Seeking Intelligent Life on Earth
Never dismiss the power of biotin. Since I started taking it — about 2 years ago — my hair has turned glossy. It has thickened. It flows. One hefty unit of biotin along with other vitam…| Serendipity - Seeking Intelligent Life on Earth

I watch a lot of TV. Probably too much. I’m fond of action shows and I’m especially fond of all the comic book shows. The one thing all these shows have in common is at least one computer gen…| Serendipity - Seeking Intelligent Life on Earth
