My 26 Hank Aaron baseball cards, saved from when I was his biggest fan.
The text came in from my cousin, “RIP Hank Aaron.”
“Damn,” was all I could respond.

Taylor, Rex and Baby Avery
Throughout these Times of Covid, I’ve been able to photograph my pregnant daughter and her dog from a safe social distance out on their front porch. Now that baby Avery has arrived, I get to share the fun photo series. She was conceived and born during this international pandemonium and we are thrilled that everyone is safe and happy.

Judy Watson and her great-granddaughter Avery Yau.
Our sweet, sweet granddaughter entered our lives on Sunday night.
Her great-grandmother — my wife’s mother — left us on Wednesday night.

Since our granddoggy Rex loves bringing in the mail so much, we got him a mail dog outfit to make it official.
Before the funeral, he is curled up in a little ball on his daughter’s bed. Outside, Saturday happens. Lawnmowers whine, trucks bang by; his subdivision is subdivided.

The yin and yang of popcorn. Photo illustration by Rodney Curtis
I’m popping popcorn. Standing at the stove, I slowly turn the little handle on our ancient popper as one or two kernels escape the vat. It’s unusual for me to be doing this at this hour, 4:30 in the evening. As the kernels twirl, the emotions swirl behind me.

I exist between Space and Time. But I’ve become accustomed to it; it’s only for a week.
I had the wonderful opportunity to attend a wedding along the Northern California coast this past weekend. What a fun time! Navarro River and Mendocino were almost as charming as the couple themselves.
Elizabeth and Lawren are a very playful couple.
