The power to create lies within you…

  • Pardon Me Boy…

      Well, we never saw the Chattanooga Choo Choo. In fact we didn’t even get to the train “museum” on our recent visit to the lovely little city of Chattanooga, for online research revealed the museum was not your typical garden variety museum. No, it is only a participatory museum, meaning that if you aren’t…

  • Threads #Photography

    Threads #Photography

      Elusive, ephemeral..     The tease oh please! By heaven’s grace let me see your face!     My soul and yours… We glow in night’s embrace, but disappear without a trace when the sun shows Its face- too soon forgotten.   Life’s moments, like dewdrops cling to silken webs- iridescent pearls, the Spinner’s…

  • Nature’s Face/Photography/Poetry

    Nature’s Face/Photography/Poetry

    At times I trudge through my life, sometimes with steps as light as air,  yet often as though pulling lead balls chained to my ankles; still,  I find constant comfort in the face of Nature.  We have had a dreary sort of Winter, although the holidays were bright and full. The unrest in the world…

  • Affirmative, Captain #SoCS

    Affirmative, Captain #SoCS

    We need to get this straight. I will affirm here and now that I have felt less than inspired in the last week. I’m working on the novel-still…maybe forever..but really loving the progress. It is just not something one can easily do at the end of a work day or week, popping from pragmatic, ordered…

    In a Moment #1LinerWeds

      In a moment it could all change, a life and its contents rearranged. In the blink of an eye without knowing why reality shifts, the rifts in time grow wide we slip inside, swallowed up to rise with eyes wide shut… again and again. When will we learn? Pristine landscape, abundant wildlife, courtesy Costa…

  • Abandoned #ThursdayDoors

    Abandoned #ThursdayDoors

    I fear my countenance now has changed, the wear and tear of life has stained my skin- within the cracks grow long, what once so strong now wounded, bleeding as my soul pleading begs for release from time’s relentless march, the Minutemen beat at the door, I ask for just a moment more- or two…

  • Neverending Story/Photography/Music/Movies

    Neverending Story/Photography/Music/Movies

    This is from one of my favorite movies since my boys were young. I can’t even recall how many times I have seen The Neverending Story, a touching, imaginative film from the 80’s. Beyond the main theme which guides the film-that we dream our world into existence and when we stop believing in our ability…

  • First Lights

    ‘Twas the week before Christmas, and time, it would seem, to seek out a few of my favorite things.   The local town square is always so bright with sparkling magical holiday lights!   But first… A feast!   I know it doesn’t look much like roast beast! The Whos were having their office affair…

  • Once Upon a Time in Paradise

    Once Upon a Time in Paradise

    It’s sad to think it has been nearly four years now since we made the move back from Costa Rica. Since that time we have planned and been unable to revisit our second home on two separate occasions, both due to natural disasters. In the past few days I have been going through photo files…
