Standing on newly frozen lake shore watching the ice reflection the sunset…thinking about wisps of heaven

Before Snow
My “before it snows” list is way too long. Harvest first is my motto. That goes out the window when family visits. Somewhere between the lines, the garden, hunting, fishing, dehydrating and freezing food for the long winter take precedence. I’m almost 500 emails behind and hope it doesn’t reach a thousand before the snowContinue reading “Before Snow”
Creativity Challenged
My thoughts on writing a song and the creativity parts getting there
Meandering Through Autumn
To meander is anticultural. Think about being in the grocery store or on the freeway. These people grate on society. Bill yourself as a “meandering comedian” and you will be hustled off stage by a “handler.” Stop to take pictures of a flower on a state park walking trail and you will soon hear “outContinue reading “Meandering Through Autumn”
Slowfoot Connections
Many blogs ago, I wrote about a rarely visited wilderness lake in the BWCA Wilderness of northern Minnesota. My short blog with a couple pictures was found by a podcast pro. I was excited to relive the journey through his “escape with Jay” podcast. I am excited to share this connection. Click on my oldContinue reading “Slowfoot Connections”
Looking To See
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”
Winter Wonder Wander
Mesmerized, I watch the millions of snowflakes fall. I hurry as they will soon cover the frost covered, well everything outside. It’s impossible to protect the camera as the wind is swirling. It is barely above zero on the Fahrenheit scale. My numb fingers change out the batteries. The snow lets up as I getContinue reading “Winter Wonder Wander”
Last Autumn Gasp
Autumns Beauty in colored foliage is coming to an end where I live. I am the one gasping as a wind gust removes a hundred leaves to flutter. Up till now they have merrily waved at me all summer through life’s winds. Most of those children are gone, and I once again feel a littleContinue reading “Last Autumn Gasp”
Outside
I have been outside this summer except when in caregiver mode. I believe I’m hundreds of emails behind and wish to at least touch base with all you great bloggers and readers. I get to read a few blogs about every other day and sacrifice the interaction which is the best part of being aContinue reading “Outside”
