The sun came up to a cloudless sky this morning and it started snowing. Totally weird. I thought it was frost coming off the trees. I guess at 20 degrees (Fahrenheit) the moisture in the air began falling out of the sky in the form of snowflakes up to 1 1/2 inches big. I triedContinue reading “Who Woulda Thunk”

Raging Waters Rescue
Sue separated herself from our group and sat above the small cliff on a bold mossy rock. Drenched and weak from her own capsized canoe experience, she began to weep as she watched a life and death drama unfold. Sue knew the big man, a total stranger yelling “I can’t swim,” was going to die.Continue reading “Raging Waters Rescue”
Really Living
I saw the bear coming in the almost dark wilderness campsite. The small band of teenagers I was leading through a long canoe route in the BWCA Wilderness had been exploring the lake shore. They spotted the bear in the woods and ran back for camp. I ran and grabbed the camera turning on theContinue reading “Really Living”
Picturesque Spring Easter Walk
Spring, with the excitement of warmer weather and a fresh new growth coming, is a season of revealing what once was. The squirrels are out finding their lost seeds and acorns. Animals that didn’t make it through the winter feed the crows, bald eagles, mice and bear awaking from hibernation. Yesterdays woods walk reminded meContinue reading “Picturesque Spring Easter Walk”
Invasive Maneuvers

I needed drilling equipment (ice auger) to penetrate the barrier to the underworld. I needed a stick(I cut a thick willow stick), line (veryContinue reading “Invasive Maneuvers”
Stoked

By the time this picture was taken we were 9 years into adventuring life together. We had survived my cliff diving, several wilderness adventures, 3 children (One physically handicapped), having money, being downsized,Continue reading “Stoked”

Where do you go to get away from the worlds cacophony? I spend a lot of time in three places. One is in nature enjoying creation and another getting to know the creator. Third is living everyday life attempting to be a peace walker from the core of who I am to what I do.Continue reading “Peace Walker”

The Old Doe
She is old. She won’t make it through another Minnesota winter. She is shunned in the deer world, so she keeps to herself. She has decided humans are better. She follows me around the yard hoping for a handout and a few words to perk her ears up. She doesn’t show signs of having ChronicContinue reading “The Old Doe”

Orphan fawn has adopted our place as it’s safe haven. Photo from the dinner table It’s snowing and blowing and 28 degrees f. It feels like below zero weather.
