This tree is one of the larger ones there. Whenever i get to wishing my beginner bonsais would grow interesting faster, I reflect on the need for a personal crane (or something) to move these giant bonsai around.https://risingoverthesmoke.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/11/pines-at-remington.jpgpines at RemingtonOne of many large pine trees around my apartment complex. My particular building is left front, by the gate.

Opus was sniffling around nearby. My daughter, Jericha Rendon, took the photos. She also provided the lovely flowers, and that's my certificate from the radiation department in my hand, showing I did the whole 30 treatments.https://risingoverthesmoke.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/11/pam-and-amy-with-linac.jpgPam and Amy with LinacRadiation therapists Amy and Pam with the linac (linear accelerator) that did my thirty radiation treatments for breast cancer. The huge thing rotates to bombard the appropriate portion on one's anatomy with those fluffy little photons that zap all over the place after hitting you. The patient is very, very alone is this room and the linac during treatment -- the walls are several feet thick, concrete and "some kind metal, maybe lead," I was told. The doors are a few inches thick, and unless they are fully closed and the air conditioning operational in the sealed room the linac will not start. So many safety precautions built into the system.2017-11-09T00:24:59+00:00monthlyhttps://risingoverthesmoke.com/2017/10/14/thinking-on-photons/https://risingoverthesmoke.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/10/opus-not-eating.jpgOpus not eatingNot eating for some days took 6 pounds off of Opushttps://risingoverthesmoke.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/10/opus-in-the-hospital.jpgOpus in the hospitalOpus looking rather thin in the hospital2017-10-17T23:08:23+00:00monthlyhttps://risingoverthesmoke.com/2017/09/12/carpets-can-have-crop-circles/https://risingoverthesmoke.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/09/carpet-crop-circle.jpgcarpet crop circlehttps://risingoverthesmoke.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/09/opus-on-duvet.jpgOpus on duvetHis favorite spot on the sofa2017-09-12T03:42:35+00:00monthlyhttps://risingoverthesmoke.com/2015/11/07/in-the-beginning/https://risingoverthesmoke.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/11/emily-on-1-28-16-at-1-51-pm.jpgEmily on 1-28-16 at 1.51 PMhttps://risingoverthesmoke.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/11/dark-clouds.jpgdark clouds2017-09-10T02:48:09+00:00monthlyhttps://risingoverthesmoke.com/2017/08/05/panic-on-a-gurney/https://risingoverthesmoke.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/08/silk-tree-flower.jpgsilk tree flower2017-08-05T22:17:09+00:00monthlyhttps://risingoverthesmoke.com/2017/06/23/oh-tubby-me-oh/https://risingoverthesmoke.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/06/tru-balance-3-q6-edge-2-0-electric-blue.pngtru-balance-3-q6-edge-2.0-electric-bluehttps://risingoverthesmoke.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/06/dogs-in-the-heat.jpgdogs in the heat108º heat keeps the dogs in the shade on their mid day walkshttps://risingoverthesmoke.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/06/silk-tree-flower.jpgsilk tree flowerSilk tree flower in the neighborhood.
