America, It’s Intervention Time

By leebythesea11 on June 7, 2022 • ( 12 Comments )

The drug of choice for America is our police. We use them again and again for our latest torment instead of dealing with the cause of our agony. It’s time for an […]

Save The Children

By leebythesea11 on June 1, 2022 • ( 10 Comments )

Oystercatcher Top Gun The sun was hot this Long Beach day: More like July than the end of May. Mom herded her chicks to relief from the sun: Birds always know what […]

The Launch of Music Man

By leebythesea11 on March 31, 2022 • ( 11 Comments )

“If I were not a physicist, I would probably be a musician. I often think in music. I live my daydreams in music. I see my life in terms of music.” (Albert […]

By leebythesea11 on February 9, 2022 • ( 8 Comments )

By leebythesea11 on December 20, 2021 • ( 3 Comments )

Passions, Private and Profane

By leebythesea11 on December 15, 2021 • ( 21 Comments )

The beach of Long Beach is bordered by dunes, a boardwalk, and a palisade of high rises. Just over those high rises is Broadway, a busy thoroughfare that everyone in Long Beach […]

It’s Refreshing

By leebythesea11 on September 10, 2021 • ( 2 Comments )

Try it. You’ll like it. My brother, Rod, lives in assisted living. Due to the highly contagious Delta variant, we don’t go to lunch as often as we had, but coffee is […]

Of Lifeguards and Life

By leebythesea11 on August 22, 2021 • ( 11 Comments )

I had to put my camera down. I sat in my sand chair watching the young family in the surf, a vignette of laughter in white spray. I want to capture such […]
