The Week In Seven Photos
Harper and I were in a reflective mood one morning this week as we looked back at a year that flew by too fast and she promised that we would move at a slower pace in the new year. We will spend more days slowly meandering by the river and not getting lost in the…

The Week In Seven Photos
I know I’ve said it in previous weeks, but I have to say again, it has been a blooming strange year. With every delicate step forward there appeared to be many peculiar steps back. I suppose I could have taken more time to find a bench and reflect, but thankfully Harper has kept me constantly…

The Week In Seven Photos
As the year winds down with the final full moon of the decade this week, I find myself unable, or too tired, to sum up the year or decade since some days the only thing I felt I knew for certain was my coffee order at Starbucks. No matter how much light was shined on a…

Monday Musings
It was a quiet weekend at home as Harper preferred to stay indoors and slept through the great football games, Minnesota/Penn State and LSU/Alabama, as she continues to recuperate, so there was no hanging out with the swans or enjoying sunrise. It’s cold enough for making snow on the slopes, but so far we’re still…

Ageless Or Aging Musings #6
I’ve always loved the ending to Robert Frost’s poem The Road Not Taken. Two roads diverged in a wood, and I– I took the one less traveled by, And that has made all the difference. Somehow in my fifties I find myself pausing longer at the two roads and a bench under a beautiful tree…
