I caught a glimpse of Elvis the other day. He was overlooking a garden from a distant picture window. The scent of freshly brewed coffee painted the air and everything seemed almost blue

After stopping on the shoulder of the road, I stepped from the idling truck with my camera in tow. It was a damn cold morning. My subjects didn't seem to mind. I carefully framed and captured a few images. Pulling on my scarf to tighten it around my neck, I opened the door, feeling and smelling the welcome of heat.

Toasted bagels and paper cups with corrugated sleeves that read "Caution: Contents May Be Hot" occupied our hands. We fed ourselves on conversation.

I drove several miles yesterday, perhaps even more than usual. Just seems like a standard when you live in a rural area. I always seem to find an inner calm during those drives. Usually it's just me and the music, getting lost in the moment as I pass the road markings like falling dominoes.
I'm not sure why, but yesterday was just a little bit different. I listened to the quiet instead. Between that and the whistling of the fresh air making it's way through slightly lowered windows, it seemed like I drove farther than those miles I left behind me in the rear view mirror. These healthy places find me far more often than they use to.

Fresh out of the oven oatmeal raisin cookies make it feel like a Saturday night at the ranch... a perfect companion for an evening of classic black and white cinema
