My Gang.....My San Francisco Bay Area Gang.....Plus One
From Left, Aurora, 8; David, getting older;
I grabbed this image about 5 weeks ago when we were visiting our Son, David, and his family in Vallejo, CA,,,,
Not long after we arrived, ..we went to the San Francisco Humane society where Lyndsy adopted a dog for the family....The dog's name is Piper...she is under the bench. A VERY sweet dog, she had seen enough hard times and had given birth to at least one litter of pups, probably two!....very sad.
From left in the image, we have Aurora, 8, David getting older ;-); Piper, 3 under the bench) "Grandma Barbara Still so damn beautiful.!! ;-) Cecilia-5, Lyndsy still beautiful and a LOT YOUNGER than David LOL :-)
I hope you enjoy our Bay Area Family ;-)

We advance from a creative passion "- (Edgar Morin)
- "To photograph is to hold one's breath, when all faculties converge to capture fleeting reality. It's at
that precise moment that mastering an image becomes a great physical and intellectual joy."

::Words from Denny:
- My beliefs, and values, have always been strongly tied-to music, especially Jazz, and Blues.

ALWAYS FEEL YOUR SOUL....
HONOR THE MAGIC IN YOUR HEART"; Earth Wind and Fire
