Cool

Saturday, September 21, 2024

I drove to Sunriver yesterday for the first time in many years. I was going to meet some long-time friends for lunch, ladies who, with me, participated in a cancer group years ago. We used to share much about our health conditions, private lives, and beyond-that-group relationships.

Yesterday’s luncheon felt like a meeting in the old days. We shared our personal updates, and like in our past discussions, we spoke openly and honestly and were mutually supportive. I have missed those friends and hope it’s possible to join them again.

I was scheduled to work at my part-time job last evening, and I timed my return from Sunriver perfectly. I had plenty of space to feed the horses before I had to leave for work.

Today’s header photo is another from Angie’s camera. It’s an unedited capture of Pimmy and me hanging out in a high spot with a beautiful sky as our canopy. Angie is a sophisticated editor who enjoys transforming photos (e.g., lifting images from pictures and resetting them into different backgrounds). I’m eager to see what she does with those from our photoshoot.

I’m inspired to rework some old photographs featuring my donkey, Pimmy, campaigning in a past political contest. If I can change the images appropriately, they’d again be cool, supporting the Harris/Walz campaign.

Dear Friends: Keep moving without ever slowing our minds and imaginations. Diana
