Welcome to the Street Prophets Coffee Hour.

"If you don't have anything good to say you're probably better off not saying anything" -My grandma, at least fifty years ago.

I don't remember the circumstances (I was probably squabbling with my brother or cousin) but those words have stuck with me ever since. Now that I'm older I especially appreciate how she didn't say "anything nice", just "anything good". That's an important distinction I think.

Last week something not-good happened. I'm having trouble dealing with it. And since I honestly don't have anything really good to say right now, I offer you these pictures instead. They all have happy memories behind them.

Our old pittie Ava, snoozing on my son's bed.

My orange wing amazon Wasabi enjoying scritches.

Friendly pet pigs Joe met at a job site.

Some eggs from my chickens and ducks.

Ava, looking like a librarian who's going to tell me to shush.

A sunset sky last summer.

Seashells that Joe brought back from San Diego.

Me, at my daughter's birthday lunch in Flagstaff last year.

Ava again, enjoying an outing.

Wasabi again. Amazingly enough he never nibbles the plants.

Another beautiful Arizona sunset.

Thank you for reading, it's appreciated. This is an open thread, all topics are welcome.
