visitor parking

When I was a kid, we’d almost always vacation in Colorado – camping trips, generally planned to coincide with a full moon. One of the regular stops we’d made were fish hatcheries and I have a very specific memory of going to one that had huge cottonwood trees around the parking lot. (Maybe that’s when my love of cottonwoods got started?) I can also remember a particular smell inside the hatchery’s sheds; the way thousands of fishes swam toward our shadows, hoping for food; and how even on the hottest days it was cool and pleasant around the fish.

Going to the fish hatchery last month in Santa Rosa reminded me of those vacations.

where you’ll find quality

I am pretty sure that most of my reader(s) are not aware that they could be purchasing their finer menswear in New Mexico. This inventory at this place runs the gamut from golf clothes to summer suits. And don’t forget that they offer service every day.

As I mentioned in yesterday’s post, some people slowly ease their way into this cold water. And some of them opt for the quick-entry method.

Me? Oh, I chose to stay dry.

Tobias – hijo, hermano, tio, y artista – must be missed by many people.

Even before I got this imaged framed and focused, I knew exactly what I wanted it to look like…and I wanted it to look exactly like this.
