Self is in a nostalgic mood this rainy, gloomy Sunday in northern California.
Posting for Travel with Intent’s One-Word Sunday. The theme is SKYLINE.
Here’s Southbank by the Thames. Took these pictures leaving Shakespeare’s Globe after a play. The bridge is the old Blackfriars.

One of self’s must-see stops whenever she is in Dublin is St. Stephen’s Green. She loves this park and its meandering paths, its leafy spaces.
She was in Dublin in late November, when the trees were turning. Here is Edward Delaney’s Famine Memorial. More information about the artist here.

For the second year in a row, self spent Christmas in Mendocino. She loves being in the tiny, picturesque village clinging to the headlands off US-1. Her favorite doors/haunts (L to R): Mendocino Chocolate Company on Main (the main store is in Fort Bragg); Corners of the Mouth organic grocery (in a re-purposed church, on Ukiah); a vintage store in downtown Fort Bragg; and the Garden Bakery, in an alley next to the Great Put-On clothing boutique on Albion.
Posting for No Facilities’ Thursday Doors.

Self visited Northern Ireland for the first time in April. She spent a month in an artists retreat called River Mill. The other residents were teachers, writers, photographers, film-makers. A few were from Belfast, others from England, and yet others from Dublin. What joy to be with fellow artists after three years of pandemic lockdown. We all promised to keep in touch.
In the evenings, we had dinner together, then gathered in the living room to watch Derry Girls.

What is this flower? It is GORGEOUS! Thought it might be a clematis, but have you ever seen an orange clematis???
Found in the garden of The Pinschower Inn in Cloverdale, California.

From Cee Neuner:
- Be creative if you feel like it, and have fun with this challenge this week. Remember your photos need to be black and white, desaturated, sepia (brown tones) or selective color. I’m looking forward to seeing what you all come up.
Here are two photos from self’s archives. The one with the spider was taken during Halloween. The second picture was taken at the Chester Beatty Museum in Dublin Castle. (Those are self’s sneakers, lol)
She didn’t retouch these pictures, they simply turned out that way.

This window is just a few doors away from one of self’s favorite London hangouts: the London Review Bookshop, in Bloomsbury.
Pretty festive!
Posting for Monday Windows (even though it is Tuesday, ha!)
