Disabled list

June 16, 2012January 5, 2015 ~ Tara R. ~ 17 Comments

This is probably the first time I have not gone on a dedicated weekend photo hike in... I actually don't remember the last time. I've been on the Disabled List for a few weeks with a bum foot, but it didn't stop my hikes, only slowed me down. I finally gave in and started physical … Continue reading Disabled list

Week 23: atmospherical phenomenon

June 16, 2012January 8, 2015 ~ Tara R. ~ 5 Comments

Looking back over my previous 365Project posts, it's clear that if it weren't for food, our pets and atmospherical phenomenon I would have failed at this undertaking weeks ago. Maybe I should once again attempt weekly themes, just to change things up a bit. The reflection photo was featured on "Fading away." That delicious looking … Continue reading Week 23: atmospherical phenomenon

An Anniversary of some significance

June 14, 2012January 7, 2015 ~ Tara R. ~ 9 Comments

Today is my 26th wedding anniversary. About two weeks ago, the Mister and I also marked the anniversary of our first date. We don't agree on when that actually was. I say it was June 3, 1983. He insists it was June 1. At this point, it doesn't really matter, except for claiming 'I'm right' … Continue reading An Anniversary of some significance

Take me to the river

June 13, 2012January 5, 2015 ~ Tara R. ~ 12 Comments

Standing on the bank in my cotton shift, my hair loose upon my shoulders, I watch as the others are raised in the Spirit. Arms hugging my chest, I try to calm my shivering - not against the cold, but fear. Fear that when I'm laid under my hair will rise around my face, threatening … Continue reading Take me to the river

Reflection of a man

June 12, 2012January 5, 2015 ~ Tara R. ~ 6 Comments

The gruesome pentimento of his true self was beginning to show through his insidiously crafted façade. His false beauty a funhouse mirror reflecting the face he wanted the world to see, and not what was secreted deep inside his dark, maleficent heart. Adults adored and envied him. They jockeyed for a position near him, hoping … Continue reading Reflection of a man
