Writing for 2 blogs can be annoying. Sometimes I struggle with the decision about where to post my writing - is it a DelSo or CivMix piece? Are the readers the same people in both places?

Entering Palm Springs…
When I travel my preferred method of transportation, when possible, is walking. It's the best way to capture images of sites and to feel a connection to the land, so to speak.

My original concept, an inspired idea without much planning (aka The Silvia Story), was a … Continue reading Catch up!
