Numbers Photo Series, No. 1


I like the generosity of numbers.
The way, for example,
they are willing to count
anything or anyone…

From the poem Numbers by Mary Cornish.

This is the first in a new photo series. Though I’m a word person, I like finding numbers in random places. Probably I should use the numbers I find to buy lottery tickets. It’s as scientific a system as any, I guess. If you use my numbers and win millions of dollars, I’ll probably never hear from you again, right?

A touch of Canada

It’s been a long time since I did a coffee cup post! I received a new cup in today’s mail. Timmy and Paul got it for me when they were in Quebec last October. Thanks, y’all! I’m very fond of Canada. Or at least the Canadians I know. And Quebec makes me think of one of my favorite mystery writers, Louise Penny. Timmy–and everyone–if you haven’t read her Armand Gamache series, do it! They begin with Still Life. I’m so grateful that Johnnie and Murder By the Book introduced me to this series.
