No-one could not enjoy spending time with 64 year old Marty.
Marty moved here from Ohio a few years back. He's semi retired after giving up his job as a self employed financial advisor and he moved here to live the good life working at a garden centre. Gardening was always his hobby and now he can earn a living doing something he loves and enjoys 100%.
It turned out he lives and works no more than half a mile away from us. I'll be paying Marty a visit for hints and tips on making the best of growing veggies and flowers in the desert heat of New Mexico.
Thanks Marty for taking time to chat and enjoy your margarita.
This picture is #45 in my 100 strangers project. Find out more about the project and see pictures taken by other photographers at 100 Strangers
Dune 45 is a star dune in the Sossusvlei area of the Namib Desert in Namibia. Its name comes from the fact that it is at the 45th kilometre of the road that connects the Sesriem gate and Sossusvlei. Standing over 80 m, it is composed of 5-million-year-old sand that is detritus accumulated by the Orange River from the Kalahari Desert and then blown here
It was my birthday today and my daughters gave me this very cute Robert Smith Pop Vinyl (I may love this more than my new iPad). I let him blow out my candle for me.
Yep, I'm not dead yet! :P
Showig my "artistic" side on this one!
Also, this will be the bullet of my next project!
Yes, that's true, I canceled the AR project, I got bored! :P
100% PMG Code will be given via FM.
Enjoy my work!

I found some interesting graffiti when taking a walk in Durham. Most are prominent apart from the last one - COVID 19.
We got a dusting of snow here last week. Maggie went out didn't like it and came back in and curled back up on the bed under her blanket. Smart little girl.

In astronomy, the Pleiades (/ˈplaɪ.ədiːz/ or /ˈpliː.ədiːz/), or Seven Sisters (Messier 45 or M45), is an open star cluster containing middle-aged hot B-type stars located in the constellation of Taurus. It is among the nearest star clusters to Earth and is the cluster most obvious to the naked eye in the night sky. The celestial entity has several meanings in different cultures and traditions.
The cluster is dominated by hot blue and extremely luminous stars that have formed within the last 100 million years. Dust that forms a faint reflection nebulosity around the brightest stars was thought at first to be left over from the formation of the cluster (hence the alternative name Maia Nebula after the star Maia), but is now known to be an unrelated dust cloud in the interstellar medium, through which the stars are currently passing. Computer simulations have shown that the Pleiades was probably formed from a compact configuration that resembled the Orion Nebula.[7] Astronomers estimate that the cluster will survive for about another 250 million years, after which it will disperse due to gravitational interactions with its galactic neighborhood.[8]
