Busy

End of the year stuff…suffering a little (from the pictures you can guess if that’s true or not) then going back to tundra-land. I hope your new year finds you well. We are rich in relationships…so very rich. Money can’t buy that. Ah yes, To be in favor with Family, God and even some ofContinue reading “Busy”

Perspective

My perspective is often way too small…

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”

Letting Go

Fall, it’s what the leaves do. Fade, it’s what the flowers do. Feed, it’s what the animals do. Firewood, it’s what the Northwoods People do. Preparations for winter is a letting go of summer. I don’t let go very well. I guess it reminds me of all the people I have lost. Maybe it remindsContinue reading “Letting Go”

Creativity Challenged

My thoughts on writing a song and the creativity parts getting there

Seasonal War

Most of our snow is melted. Lakes are still frozen. The apple, birch and maple buds are bulging. Maple trees are starting to be tapped for the second time. It’s spring on the Calendar. Winter will still say “not so fast bucko” and storm away a couple more snowfalls (weather app proves me right…yep don’tContinue reading “Seasonal War”

Expression

My thoughts through a camera lens as family opened gifts. A creation word. Expression. Facial art in a smile, frown or other muscle configuration. Frost, snow, rain, rays of sun on landscapes and filtering through grasses or dense forests. Genesis. “In the beginning God created” it all. Wow…our kids express this…Love, Joy, Peace and sometimesContinue reading “Expression”

Oh Summer…Where Art Thou?

Our household missed it. From April to mid-August, we missed way too much summer. Somewhere between medical emergencies, a life flight, month long hospital stays and indoor home rehab schedule, summers almost gone. In our case, my wife and I are caregivers to a physically handicapped daughter with a very bright mind. So, what’s yourContinue reading “Oh Summer…Where Art Thou?”

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”
