    … this is one very serious dude that is looking out over as much of his kingdom as he can … the Bengal tiger is one of the largest cats in existence weighing in at up to 500 pounds … they are also one of the most beautiful cats to be found. I shot this one at Out of Africa a number of years ago and still am amazed by the beauty of this cat.

    I told a few friends today that I would share my recipe for an amazing potato soup that I had for dinner last night. I cook for myself and the quicker and easier the meal the better I like it.

    One of my favorite one dish meals is kind of an inverted shepherds pie. I make some instant potatoes whilst some ground beef and a handful of chopped frozen vegetables is cooking and then dump the ground beef and veggies on top of the potatoes, a handful of cheese on top of that and voila, I have a meal. Cook time about 10 minutes start to finish. Last night I emptied the remainder of the instant potato mix into a bowl of water I had nuked … surprise, not enough potato mix or too much water, depending on how you look at it. What to do? I dumped the meat and veggies in the soupy potato mix and instant potato soup with meat and veggies! It actually was very good 🙂 Love that potato soup, but the dinner at Szechuan Restaurant tonight was better!

    A very wonderful day today spent with friends … lots of great conversation … cannot think of a better way to spend the day.

    The photo below is of a rather comical coyote that was on the 11th tee box across the cart path out back. He looked like he had been in a fight with something and came out a little the worse for wear … he was shaking himself out and I was fortunate enough to capture the entire sequence.

    Have a beautiful day today … the world is truly a wonderful place … seek beauty and share the joy you live each day with another. We all can use a liberal dose of that.

    Cheers … keep breathing!

    The Symbolism of Jan. 6

    By Tommy Acosta
    Don’t mess with symbols. Just ask author Dan Brown’s character Robert Landon. The worth of symbols cannot be measured. Symbols make the world-go-round. Symbols carry the weight of a thousand words and meanings. Symbols represent reality boiled down to the bone. Symbols evoke profound emotions and memories—at a very primal level of our being—often without our making rational or conscious connections. They fuel our imagination. Symbols enable us to access aspects of our existence that cannot be accessed in any other way. Symbols are used in all facets of human endeavor. One can only feel sorry for those who cannot comprehend the government’s response to the breech of the capital on January 6, with many, even pundits, claiming it was only a peaceful occupation. Regardless if one sees January 6 as a full-scale riot/insurrection or simply patriotic Americans demonstrating as is their right, the fact is the individuals involved went against a symbol, and this could not be allowed or go unpunished.
