    No sooner, had I published the early post about Piper, than I received a call from the nurse practitioner on duty at Wanaque, saying that Piper’s condition had worsened and that they were going to send her to the ER at St. Joe’s in Parsippany NJ. I begged her to do everything that she could…

    Warning: this post contains some negativity. Reagan and I have been trying to maintain a positive outlook regarding Piper’s new home. Of course it is always going to be an adjustment, going to a new place. There is new staff to meet, new procedure, idiosyncrasies etc.. It has been about a month now, and Piper…

    We had a pretty good weekend, considering that it was supposed to continue to rain all day Saturday. Apparently, mother nature was able to get it all out of her system early that day, because it actually shaped up to be a pretty nice little weekend, weather-wise after Saturday morning.

    Today is absolutely beautiful outside. I took a little stroll this afternoon, down to the BPC promenade, and shot a couple of pics along the way. This one is my favorite.

    I saw this on the way back from moving the car this morning. It was pouring out. So, I didn’t really pause long enough to get a good shot. But, this modern engineering marvel (isn’t there a discovery channel show with that name?) is installed just a few doors up from our building. The handrail…

    I was expecting to have to work late tonight, but totally lucked out and was able to get home at a reasonable hour. Since Reagan wasn’t feeling too hot, I let her rest, while I went on the roof to take some slow shutter shots. I really like the way the one below came out.…

    Reagan will generally try to push some food on me, as I’m on my way out the door in the mornings. Today, she talked me into bringing this grapefruit to work. Since I took it out of my bag this morning, I have been enjoying the way that is smells so much that I can’t…
