I pictured a rainbow
You held it in your hands
I had flashes
But you saw the plan
I wandered out in the world for years
While you just stayed in your room
I saw the crescent
You saw the whole of the moon
The whole of the moon
The Waterboys – Whole of the moon

The start of a brand new year, the first day with 365 following, given this is a leap year. A calm sea, the light breaking into the waves, painting a gorgeous sky in the clouds. It’s all in the details. The small boat heading out to a new port of call.

The theme for LAPC 234 is ‘messages’. Meet Murphy (the brown Show Cocker) and Cooper (the white brown). Both of them love water (and mud) and love chasing a ball together. When there is water or mud (preferably both) and a ball to catch, they do not stop playing.
