It has been a maelstrom here of late. Every time life seemed like it was going to settle down, a new "crisis du jour" has arisen. My emotional landscape started to mirror the exterior chaos and . . .

I published this here two years ago on Arbor Day. It seems appropriate to give it a resurrection here today. Happy Arbor Day everyone - now, go plant a tree or two or three!

Today I took a walk in a local park and came across these marvelous blooms. Since I did not plant them I would be remiss in confidently identifying them as Helleborus Orientalis - also known as the Lenten . . .

Sleep has eluded me lately, too much going on in this monkey mind of mine. I am left aching from weariness and yet also detached from worrying about the minutia of my world. It will still be there when . . .

Today was a gorgeous fall day. When I was done with work, Deb and I decided to take advantage of the warm late day light. Camera in hand, we explored a favorite spot, Prairie Grove Battlefield State Park. . . .

There is a spot in West Fork, Arkansas that has become a favorite haunt for Deb and me. There are bluffs that run along the edge of a river, ancient rock that seems to carry the primal paintings of time. . . .
