texture of the day


 'Little moments can have a feeling and a texture that is very real'.

~Ralph Fiennes


Close up of the pebbles in the walk on today's walk; generally there are lizards skittering across them.


Seeds for Bogart's special kitty grass/herbal mixture that we're growing. 


And as I just got three new flute students signed up today, decided it was time to dust off the silver keys and get the embouchure back in shape.

    1. Yes, it helps with those who are bailing. Once school begins, things ought to be a bit steadier with students.

  2. How lovely to be able to pick up not one, but three instruments, at your leisure. Making a life of music takes more work and talent than it appears from the outside.

    This is today's bit of wisdom.

    1. Not really leisure~from 'This is Your Brain on Music' by Daniel Levitin (the McGill prof with whom I would love to study)it takes over 10,000 hours of practice to become proficient on any instrument.

      But far better that then hours of TV!

      What a lovely blog~think it needs to be printed out and framed somewhere in my home~thank you for posting that.
