Ambience

June 30, 2012January 10, 2015 ~ Tara R. ~ 14 Comments

The Mister wasn't feeling good the day I usually take my photo hike, so being the dutiful wife that I am, I still went.... but, I did stay close to home just in case he needed me to fetch him a glass of water or some saltines. Instead of venturing out early in the morning, … Continue reading Ambience

Week 25: homebound

June 30, 2012 ~ Tara R. ~ 3 Comments

Except for the highway sunset, each of my 365 photos this week were taken at home. The lamp post shot could be titled "Oh crap! It's almost midnight and I've not taken a photo today."

When his friend walked into his office, Butch saw Paul had lost his usual swagger. Dropping into the offered chair, he looked broken. "You told her?" Butch pulled a bottle out of the desk drawer. "Not everything, only that she's gone," Paul said, choking on the words. "Pauley thinks her mom died. How could I … Continue reading Crisis of conscience

Driving since midnight

June 27, 2012January 5, 2015 ~ Tara R. ~ 14 Comments

The impromptu picnic was his idea, a rare moment alone with her dad. He spread a blanket under "their" tree overlooking the river. Her favorite sandwiches, peanut butter and dill pickles, were packed along with thermoses of Hawaiian Punch and Sprite. "I don't understand," her voice cracked. Fighting against her tears, she was shocked to … Continue reading Driving since midnight
