2025.12.13 Late Winter Afternoon at the Ojai Valley Inn, Ojai, CA

Morning Practice: Ojai Holiday VibesI’ve been a bit MIA here on Instagram — but trust me, the Morning Practice continues every day. 🌄✏️These drawings are all from right here in my immediate area — scenes that remind me daily why I love living in Ojai. We’re fortunate that our insurance company is putting us up at The Blue Iguana Inn while we wait for three-month housing. 🏡💙And last night, my book group met for dinner at The Ojai Valley Inn — kids running around, a Christmas tree glowing in the background, the mountains softly lit at dusk. I thought: this is why we live in California. 🌲✨🌄
