It’s finally spring here in Northern Minnesota, as of this week. The budded trees finally gave way to leaves bursting out. One day the trees have only buds, and the next day there are leaves. While the fourth rain of the month was coming down, the brown grass was suddenly green. All kinds of songbirdsContinue reading “Looking To See”

Looking Down to See Up
Today was one of our worst winter days for Northern Minnesota (My opinion). The weather turned warm (40 (f) and rained. Winters wet and gray day made snow melt and hardpack turned icy. The beauty of frosted leaves and white snow puddled everywhere.  Accepting the challenge of some adventure, I grabbed the camera, put itContinue reading “Looking Down to See Up”
Seeing is Believing Maybe Sometimes
I feel quite little, as in small, as I am watching tons of snow falling out of the sky here in Minnesota. Forecasters giddy with bad news have predicted 12-24 inches in the next couple of days. At the present rate nonstop it will double that (I have faith in the brilliant forecasters accuracy though…_______________???).Continue reading “Seeing is Believing Maybe Sometimes”
Navigating Winds Seasons
Clattering branches snows lost in thought shifting blame winds of the soul I’m waiting for Spring. Wanting another season. Nature says not yet. Gary  But you, O Lord, know me; you see me, and test my heart toward you. Jeremiah 12:3a, ESV
For what it is
Evil walked into the store. The wretched man was encased. I looked into his hollow eyes that darted everywhere but seeing only his own pain. He was giving all his food away. Like a madman desperate to give everything away. Now. It had to be now. I had to take it or he was puttingContinue reading “For what it is”

Tis The Season
What’s in the air? aside from the crazy chickadee (below). This time of year really does test us in so many ways. When I think of these pictures, I see captions of people I know. Maybe you do as well. Enjoy a few winter shots from my back yard. We as readers and writers areContinue reading “Tis The Season”
Nature Reaching and Preaching
Stepping outside before daylight a couple days ago an eerie feeling came over me. I couldn’t place it until later in the day. I stood beside the lake and it was completely froze over. Silence. All was quiet. The last two weeks the lake was full of very noisy swans, geese, ducks and some cranesContinue reading “Nature Reaching and Preaching”
Dark Corners and Cheap Likes
It happens about once a week. A speed reading blogger reveals, by the time stamp in my email, they read 18 of my posts in 3 minutes or less. They “liked” a whole lot of my posts that took a couple hours or more to write. So hold on Gary (me, not all the otherContinue reading “Dark Corners and Cheap Likes”
Old Story Still True
We often know a person (we think) through their writing. Like many, I probably disclose myself in small measured doses through my writing as most of us reveal without even knowing it. I had forgot about this old post. Jack Flacco of https://lookingtogod.org/ pointed me back to a lot of memories from an old postContinue reading “Old Story Still True”
