Come walking with me a ways...

I love trails: unpaved usually, narrow pathways into landscapes, towards... anything! Each one is real underfoot, but also metaphorical for our progress through life. Some of us here are unable to walk real trails except in memory, and this is for you, and for me! https://flic.kr/s/aHsmN7E2GF I'd... Sign in to see full entry.

Sunny winter shots

A bit of the tropics on a sunny winter day--Here's the afternoon light glowing through the bird's nest fern beside the open deck door today. Also, yesterday's icicles. https://flic.kr/ps/rhS1C Sign in to see full entry.

Palmer Park, Co Springs

Right in the middle of the city of Colorado Springs, there is this park...

snow days in the Pac NW

https://flic.kr/ps/rhS1C We went for a drive today, so I took a few pictures going down the road. Also, some birds that have shown up in the yard. The woodpecker taps away at the tree right outside the window by the desk where I am tapping away on the keyboard. Sign in to see full entry.

since Thanksgiving...

Here are some pictures of Charlie's Tower of Bears at the recent little show the weekend after Thanksgiving, and a surprise in the sky the morning after Thanksgiving Day, and more of our Colorado skies, evening and morning... Lucky to get up just in time this morning to catch this sky in the little... Sign in to see full entry.
