I don’t think you could pay me enough to do this work. I’m glad someone likes it . . . .

There is certainly a paradox here given the vast amount of water that laps shores that are considered semi-arid desert.

12-18-15 The Nuclear Option

December 18, 2015

By Scott Shephard

This isn't the first time I've posted this photo of Jon, Deb, Brian and me. But today, on my birthday, it was the first thing I thought about when I went looking for a picture to share. Birthdays can lead to egocentric indulgence but today, at age 62, I am thinking about who I am and how I got to where I am. And these three people have more than a little to do with that. :-)

I am grateful for my nuclear family, of course. But I am also grateful to have been shaped by so many others in my extended family: my friends, my in-laws, my granddaughters, my teachers,  my co-workers and so many more.

I was thinking that if I died today, I would have had a good and happy life. But I still have much to do. My work room and my workshop are a mess. And I've got a few more pictures to take. . .
