Fixing

Saturday, September 23, 2023

This month’s Harvest moon coming alive overhead brightly is half-full and beautiful. Next week, Susie and I will go to the countryside to see Harvest’s first glow as it rises from behind the long, slanting, and dim horizon of Horse Ridge. Anticipating an always exciting moonrise draws my attention to cameras. Mine are too little being used.

For a long while, I have focused almost totally on improving my Eight Pines Ranch. Long overdue property needs seemed unending and now some big ones are addressed. With fixes apparent, other interests draw attention.

Photography is pleasurable, and I miss being out and shooting what draws both eye and imagination. Prior to next week’s moon run and our photographing, I will head out with cameras to regain my comfort, taking a tripod and practicing with it. Tripods might aid Susie and me in capturing that Harvest moonrise.

On another note, my donkey, Pimmy, has had blood work that shows her having a metabolic disorder. Cushing’s disease has made her vulnerable to those hoof infections. Cushing’s can be controlled by medications. Two starting meds daily administered soon will improve Pimmy’s health. Then, one of the meds will be dropped, and she’ll receive the other one daily for the rest of her life.

Dear Friends: All sorts of fixes, and now forward to doing work with cameras. Diana
