About Me
- Ad Libitum
- I'm retired (2004), live in a Western Washington State suburb with my wife of 46 years. Was born and mostly grew up on West Coast except for 10 years in Grain Belt country. Oh, and 2 years in Cold War Germany.
Violet
This is a violet that Maya picked. It lasted and grew in a jar for almost two months
