Rick, you're right! Helene!? What happened?

Thanks, Rick, Jen and Pete, for not letting me disappear. I've just been too tired to post or talk . . . my little Jojo has cancer and the prognosis is not good. So right now, his friends and I are just keeping him comfortable and as happy as possible. He has always been tenacious, feisty and adorable. So my focus has been on my little bunch of souls.

Sometimes, the "decisive moment" passes too quickly to get good focus!

The last of my species roses . . . they always remind me of the dogwood blossoms that I don't have here.

When I was in graduate school, I wanted to work at White Sands Missile Range. I ended up living in their "back yard".

Digging out the warm weather stuff . . . cold front moving in . . . sigh

Good to see your work back on the forum Helene. I did notice that your sensor showed some dust in the picture you submitted for the fall challenge. Maybe the cold weather will give you time to blow these off the sensor.
I always enjoy your shots and love your dogs.

I'm sorry to hear about your pooch, but glad to see your photos.

Nice one.

The last time I saw White Sands was in August 1993. I was at 50,000' & Mach 1.75.

I did see much...

I believe that is a Nike Zeus Missile. You have some interesting toys in your sandbox!

Thank you all for your very kind words. I've been down this road so many times, and it does not get easier with "practice", and even when the end is obvious, it is so hard to let go of hope, and to let go of them.
