RED RIDING HOOD

 It seems today I start my 51st trip around the sun!!! Goodness gracious who'd thought. But age doesn't bother me as long as I look nowhere near my age, feel my age, or have pains...and so far, so good on all three fronts. I don't have anything to complain of...I enjoy my new job still, I still attract the boys, I'm able to go and come as I please, have no heath ills, and over all... enjoy life most days. Granted there are things I used to be able to do, but I won't mention that here!!!!! The body doesn't isn't as bendy as it once was. I often think of dear Mae West this day, "You only live life once, but if you do it right, once is enough." And but of course..."Men are my hobby. If I married, I'd have to give it up." For my birthday, I plans most every night to go to dinner, as friends are taking me out....and a few weeks ago when in New Hope, my friend Preston joined us. I wanted him to capture some pictures of me, that would capture the feeling of the season for me, since Halloween is a favorite time of the year, and I was supposed to be born on Halloween, and also, my love of nature. I knew of a nice location. Well, he came up with a wonderful idea and he sent me a few of the set yesterday, before one of the actual sizes arrive.

His idea and capture were excellent!!!!! I had a wonderful time. I loved that he caught exactly as I wished...nature, mysterious, haunting and the dark autumnal vibe. They were taken in daylight, but I'm sure he darkened them or whatever it is photographers do. I wouldn't mind a nice spring version now, and maybe all nude too. Perhaps one for each season? It was rather chilly that day that day... He titled them Red Riding-A Study. He may use them as a part of a showing.

Overall, I loved the results. That boy has a good eye. 

And not too shabby or haggard for 51!!!

I never thought I'd be 51.
