This is under our cupboards and in our bathroom closet. Not in any condition to save, just a pleasant surprise to uncover with each renovation.
Maeve went for a ride with us and wore our new azhippiechick hat. We did one of the stairway walks in SF, but the weather was so cold and yucky I didn't take her out for any photos. :(
We love the turquoise beads!

Home sweet home is a very symmetric house that is inspired from the artist Piet Mondrian. The Vertical and horizontal lines gives us that impression. This house also has a brownish colour, which makes is a neutral and alm house. Mia Theron. Samsung Galaxy S4 mini. 8MP. 31/7/2014 at 15:10
I love the partridge family, and I love the Mondrian painted tour bus they used. I was excited to see this wall today. I wish I had one at the house

Comment on Flickr album Acer monspessulanum: The genus Acer is numerous, and many of its species are well known to people. They are widely used as ornamental trees. The interesting and varied shapes of their leaves are appreciated, especially their beautiful fall colors. The genus is also important to the wood industry, as it provides high-quality wood, and some species grow to large sizes, forming extensive forests.
Acer monspessulanum is less well known. It is a deciduous tree that thrives best in the zone between the evergreen Mediterranean vegetation and the deciduous forests of central and northern Europe. It is most common in the Mediterranean basin. In Slovenia and Croatia, it almost exclusively grows along the Adriatic coast. Today, of course, it has been introduced into several European countries. It is not a large tree, reaching only up to 10 meters or slightly more. The trunk of most trees is usually much thinner than half a meter in diameter and is therefore not highly valued by the timber industry. However, it has hard, heavy wood, making it good fuel and an excellent raw material for charcoal production. The bark of young trees is gray and relatively smooth (Fig. 6). In contrast, the trunk and larger branches of older trees have deeply fissured bark (Fig. 11). Acer monspessulanum has the smallest leaves of all European species and is the most thermophilic of them all. It can be found in both deep, nutrient-rich soils and on steep, rocky cliffs where there is almost no soil. In dry, warm environments, it employs an interesting strategy to cope with unusually dry or hot summers—shedding its leaves very early, before all other deciduous trees do. It may look dried up as early as September, but this strategy does not harm its growth. Alternatively, in different weather conditions, its leaves may stay on the tree well into November.

Maeve and Juniper watching the race with 'Uncle Tony'
We came down to the track to watch the race Tony's work group was sponsoring. Then we all got our photo taken with the winning jockey. The jockey held Juniper for the photo, but since I'm going to be IN the photo, I didn't get my own shot of it. Oh well.
