Monday Musings

After a day indoors watching the record January rainfall and the turkeys trying to hide from the rain, I awoke Sunday thankful the worst of the storm missed us, but hoping for a beautiful winter morning of photography only to discover trees with no icicles or snow.

Harper and I are still on our path of optimism, but after so many years living on the other side of the fence we’re a little hesitant about this new direction and following these footprints.

At least one of us was thrilled with more time to explore on the weekend now that the college football season has ended. Harper is not allowed to freely explore without being on her leash at home, with all the backyard visitors and an increase in coyote sightings and attacks in the area, so she…

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…
