The Week In Seven Photos

It’s disappointing when you’re an autumn person to wake up and realize you somehow now reside in a rainforest and pretty soon the mushrooms are going to grow as big as pumpkins. I’ve determined that my happy place would never have a dew point over 55, the temperature would never rise above 62 degrees and…

Harper was in need of a special treat this week as she’s been left home more often as my niece and I continue to have a great time on the nature trails. There have been many fascinating discoveries along the way, the first being that thank god we’re only dealing with birds and not bears…

One could not have asked for a better morning at the park with blue skies, sixty degrees and my niece, the animal whisperer, along for the walk. The animals were just pouring out of the woods to see her and there was barely enough room on the paths between the deer and sandhill cranes. Thanks…

There has been plenty of debate across the country this week regarding eliminating mask mandates as COVID-19 cases continue to decline and vaccinations increase, but nothing has changed for me after receiving my vaccine and my masks and neck gaiter have now become favorite fashion accessories. On a more serious note, the continued use of…

Harper was kind enough to help me cope with all my NCAA March Madness bracket losses and was thrilled to drag me away from the games and out of the house to meet a new neighbor and spot our first bear out on the trails. I’ve been reflecting on a few things, while enjoying pizza…

With sunshine and temps in the 60s this week we were busy looking at the trees and flower beds for signs of spring, but it takes a little longer in these northern woods for some signs of spring to arrive. Finally seeing thin layers of ice and water along the shore while hoping the turkeys…

As we approach the one year anniversary of our first shutdowns due to the pandemic (a sentence I never imagined writing), I have a few very inconsequential thoughts about how I’ve somewhat adjusted over the last year. Surprisingly I’m no longer a fan of winter and I don’t know if that’s due to the snow…
