Road trip: iPhone edition

June 1, 2013January 8, 2015 ~ Tara R. ~ 9 Comments

If you've been following along, I spent most of last week on the road with my dad and step-mom, driving to Ohio (about 2,200 miles round-trip from Florida) to attend a family funeral. I thought I'd be able to get a few photos on the trip north, but only managed some snaps from the passenger … Continue reading Road trip: iPhone edition

Road trip prep: iPhone edition

May 25, 2013January 8, 2015 ~ Tara R. ~ 12 Comments

Early Saturday morning - as in, just after sunrise when we would typically leave if I was in charge of roadtrip itineraries - I left on a 10-hour drive. I'm headed to my dad's house in East Tennessee, then he and my step-mom, and I will get in their car (after sufficient sleep and a … Continue reading Road trip prep: iPhone edition

Eat at Joe’s

May 10, 2013January 6, 2015 ~ Tara R. ~ 18 Comments

He taps out a rhythmic tattoo around the oak bole. A secret code only he and his brethren can decipher. Round runes as ancient as days, carve a message deep in the cork. “Eat at Joe’s!”

Raining petals

April 30, 2013January 5, 2015 ~ Tara R. ~ 17 Comments

Beautiful flowers Red, my favorite Daisy petals too tempting Not to pluck A fortune to tell, A future to ponder Each crimson blade Aimed at my soul Cupid’s true arrow Or love’s cruel dagger One by one, bringing Hope or despair Joy or misery Ecstasy or pain The outcome a mystery Once begun Cannot be … Continue reading Raining petals

Backyard garden: iPhone edition

April 28, 2013January 31, 2020 ~ Tara R. ~ 11 Comments

On Monday, The Boy and I roadtripped to Auburn University with Asta. She was seen by a team (yeah, a team) of veterinary students and the orthopedic vet she saw previously in Pensacola. They were trying to determine the next course of action in her treatment. The migrating pin in her leg was causing more … Continue reading Backyard garden: iPhone edition

Tucked away

March 19, 2013January 5, 2015 ~ Tara R. ~ 33 Comments

I wrote your vengeful words on a torn scrap of paper, folding it into four corners to hold in the strictures, then tucked it into an old, musty book. The one that sits on a high shelf, never read, just gathering dust and losing its memories. Plaguing my weary mind, I muted their chittering demands … Continue reading Tucked away
