Preference for Landscapes

When I scroll through my favorited photos on my phone, I realize how many of them are landscapes. Even though they never fully catch the grandeur or the subtlety of why I took the photo in the first place, they are a reminder of where I’ve been and what I’ve seen.
This one is of the water near A Lanzada just after sunset, which is spectacular here. Many families walk to the isthmus where the chapel sits for a great view around 8:30 in the evening. The photo shows the lengthy Lanzada beach with a few buildings from San Vicente do Mar off in the distance.
On this day, we actually missed the sunset. Patricia was taking photos of her jewelry and Alqo was excited to be out and about. No matter. Sunsets aren’t the only beautiful thing to remember.
Resentful Neighbors

I saw this a few days ago while taking my dog for a walk in the pueblo. Imagine being so annoyed about leaves, you scrawl this on your neighbor’s driveway door. Qué fuerte.

Deciding which plants can fit in a packed van is tough.
