Busy Bees

I have a lot of work this week and next: teaching in the oboe studio, Lord Of The Rings performances (the full films with live orchestra!), and Magic Flute rehearsals. Busy is good, but busy is also challenging. I still attempt to get at least two mile walks in. I need those!

I might be busy, but not quite as busy as these bees. At least I don’t think so. (Photo made a year ago yesterday.)

Then again, they don’t know how to play an oboe!

Mama Said There’ll Be Days Like This

… well … not really. But a song said that. I guess it’s true.  (Oh. I’m not talkin’ about any guy, though.)

I took a nice little 6 mile walk. It felt better than the last few, but my way of seeing still isn’t where I’d like it to be. I didn’t do a ton of photography, and looking through what little I did make nothing is standing out as noteworthy.

But here … for some fun …
