Griffin Ranch - La Quinta, CA
Merv Griffin used to live here and there are many sculptures depicting his love for horses. Each street is named after a Kentucky Derby winner.
Post after work run. High 40s, no wind, and a decent hill workout. 8 miles later and a long day at work was put into perspective as the sun set.

Finally, Friday, self portrait. A novel, the cat, scrubs-as-pajama pants, well-loved couch, home. Not pictured: my husband in the kitchen making broccoli cheese soup, and the dog, snoring underfoot. The weekend is off to a good start. I needed tonight to be what it is, I think.
She was happy to be outside with me after supper - having spent 5.5 hours worrying about mom out gardening alone... These days she can't be trusted to not eat things that upset her stomach, so if I'm busy she stays in the house or in the sun-room - neither of which is to her liking. Depth captured by leaving lots of breathing room in the image and by shooting towards an opening in the lilacs giving the illusion of somewhere to go...
Two beautiful dark blooms.
The peony is the only genus in the flowering plant family Paeoniaceae.
They are native to Asia, Southern Europe and western North America but grow very well here too, Peonies are actually very easy to grow; once established they can tolerate drought and suffer from very few diseases.
Colours range from pure white through baby pinks and palest peaches to clear deep pink and darkest rich maroon. There is also a pale yellow but it is rare.
Peonies are only available between late May and early July, so get them while you can!
They are very thirsty flowers, so make sure you top up the vase or bowl.
The Greeks believed they could cure over 20 ailments and were found in every monastery garden.
Peonies have been cultivated for over 2,000 years, more for their medicinal qualities than for ornament.
The Japanese protect the earliest peony blooms from the snow by protecting them with individual small thatched shelters.
Some geishas used to wear special peony colours.
The Chinese name for peony is "sho yu" which means "most beautiful" and they idolised this flower.
The common thread is that the flower always denotes luxury and indulgence.
Wishing you all the best and thank you, M, (*_*)

Missed focus selfie... about to start training for a marathon which reminds me to do the work. The work pays off. It doesn't always pay off in running the time I aim for, though that's the aim. It pays off in dividends when it comes to discipline and fitness and confidence. It pays off in discovering strength and limits. It pays off in joy on a good day and determination on a difficult one (or a mix of both on many days).
As in running so in life. The same lesson seems to apply in my relationships, in therapy, at work. Consistency and effort to do and be better as a runner teaches me to live a fuller life, because those skills produce health and well-being.
I'm grateful that running is my thing. I know it's not for everyone, but I hope you have a something that helps you understand yourself and the world better as you work the process.
We put the tree up Saturday. Not quite ready for decorations, but already I'm anticipating the spreading of holiday cheer in the coming days and weeks.
