On my wanderings through New Mexico, I was thrilled to find free campsites (with water and bathrooms too!) could be had at the El Morro National Monument. Even better, straight from camp you could hike up to the top of El Morro and view what was left of ancient Native American pueblos left by the… Continue reading

How do you stop loving?
I can’t.
All my life and all these loves I’ve had, I can’t stop loving them.
Maybe I just don’t have an “off” switch when it comes to love.
I used to think I couldn’t let go.

Sometimes
I think of us
walking down a trail
holding hands
You in your
light summer dress,
breeze flowing
through your hair.
I in my element
feeling barefoot earth,
green all around
making me glow.
Warm smiles
serene peace
joyous eyes
hearts afire
Sun’s rays behind us
We turn to each other
Look deeply into eyes
Our tender lips meet
and we melt together.
View of Snake River, Oregon
Snake River in Oregon. A deer crossed here moments before. My campsite was right on the river just around the bend for an incredible camping experience with incredible views. I’d take a swim in the afternoons to cool off, very cold but invigorating.
White light of Kundalini dream

More magic on Campobello Island
More magic Campobello Island in New Brunswick, Canada (I originally placed it in Nova Scotia, my mistake). You can camp on the island and walk over to the coastal side to these kind of views. It’s a very magical place.
Relics of a past on Campobello Island
This was one of the first things I saw after entering Campobello Island in New Brunswick, Canada. Most of the village is like this with worn-color homes of a quaint seaside nature. Beautiful place to visit.
Baby steps into the water
I finally found the courage today to launch my kayak into a nearby lake. It’s been several months since I last kayaked. I wasn’t at full strength and I was nervous, especially untying and unloading the kayak which requires quite a bit of yanking and lifting and grunting. The thing about dealing with Mr. Lyme… Continue reading

Thoughts after a month of daily blogging
Today will mark thirty three consecutive days of writing and posting photographs to my blog. Just over a month ago I wrote of an audicious challenge to post every day for a year. The challenge was to get into a regular habit of creative expression to help find my voice. Some days I have struggled… Continue reading
