Wow, the temperature this morning has dropped into the seventies... after the past week it almost feels cool. There was some rain overnight and the sunrise was colorful with the sun hitting the clouds before coming over the horizon. The prognosticators are foretelling off a good possibility of more rain…

A cloudless sky greets me this morning. Sun on the concrete, warning an already warm world. Just a breath of breeze, a breath almost held. A faint tinkle of wind chimes barely heard. There's a sameness to the daily grind that is Donald Trump trying to break America. The schoolyard…

I'm enjoying the almost, but not quite, coolness of the front porch again. I have my native American flute playlist playing in the background... and strange as it may seem, the birds have moved in close to join the band. A chickadee sits above my head. Some fledgling woodpeckers, downeys…

Once again I'm sitting on the back porch listening to the birds and a distant train whistle. It's 74 out already, but the ceiling fans make it just right. There's enough moisture in the air to make it hazy in the distance. The birds today are very active. I guess…

It's the middle of winter but you'd never know it from the weather... Our ten day forecast looks like this... We're heading up to almost 80° in the coming week. I've been noticing a difference in our bird visitors in the past few years. I haven't seen any Crested Titmouses…

It's warm outside... warmer than normal for this time of year. Almost as warm as it is inside. And the heat is on. Outside it's 65º... inside it's 68º. And, it's overcast. The prognosticators have been foretelling of storms forming by tomorrow... and not the metaphorical storms caused by the…

It's frosty out there this morning. I wasn't expecting it... It's also pretty frosty in Washington. I listened to much of the hearings yesterday. What really came thru for me was the hate Republicans feel for Democrats... even as they accuse us of hating President Trump. Even as President Trump…

A cool, bright morning with clearing fog. Sadly, the fog in America politics isn't clearing. Between alternative facts and subjective truths, there is a fog of obstruction, a smokescreen of lies and conspiracy theories. With the President and his apologists screaming about fake news of their own admittance, Fox News…

Our prayers go out to our neighbors up the road in Santa Fe, Texas. The American tragedy is playing out in their homes today. We are protecting gun rights at the expense of student's right to go to school unafraid.

  • “You are the storyteller of your own life, and you can create your own legend or not.” — Isabel Allende.
  • “My advice to you is not to inquire why or whither, but just to enjoy your ice-cream while it’s on your plate.” — Thornton Wilder
  • “Sing in me, Muse, and through me tell the story of that man skilled in all ways of contending, the wanderer, harried for years on end.” — Homer, The Odyssey
  • “The rule of law, civil liberties and civil rights—these are not our burdens. They are what makes all of us safer and stronger.” — Bob Mueller, Former Director of the FBI
  • “The only person you are destined to become is the person you decide to be.” — Ralph Waldo Emerson
  • “Find meaning. Distinguish melancholy from sadness. Go out for a walk. It doesn’t have to be a romantic walk in the park, spring at its most spectacular moment, flowers and smells and outstanding poetical imagery smoothly transferring you into another world. It doesn’t have to be a walk during which you’ll have multiple life epiphanies and discover meanings no other brain ever managed to encounter. Do not be afraid of spending quality time by yourself. Find meaning or don’t find meaning but ‘steal’ some time and give it freely and exclusively to your own self. Opt for privacy and solitude. That doesn’t make you antisocial or cause you to reject the rest of the world. But you need to breathe. And you need to be.”

    ― Albert Camus, Notebooks 1951-1959
