554. peace in pieces 🇺🇦
that timeless peace sign
clad in a somber black pall
peace is in pieces 🦊❤️
On yesterday’s hike the magical forces in nature provided me with insight into what I needed to be doing about important things in my life… and it provided me with this scene for this post at this time in history. God bless snd protect the People of Ukraine and the world. 🦊❤️
553. maple creemee with chocolate jimmies please
dripping day and night
my mouth waters at the sight
“maple creamee please!” 🦊❤️
Every time I see a Maple tree being tapped on a hike my mouth waters at the thought of a Vermont Maple Creemee. While in Vermont at a race with my kids, I discovered the joys of a Maple Creemee. It is like a soft ice cream cone infused with the heavenly taste of Vermont Maple Syrup. I like chocolate jimmies (sprinkles) on mine. Thanks Tom and Lori Curtis for turning me on to this awesome treat. Can’t wait to have a few at Infinitus this year. 🦊❤️

If all artists only see what is in front of them… art would be “accurate” but it sure would be boring. 🦊❤️
551. ukraine
just eight years ago
evil was unleashed again
and today… again 🦊❤️
Almost eight years ago today I wrote this post to mark in time
Russia’s invasion of Crimea. History and evil - when forgotten - returns… God Bless the people of Ukraine… and the civilized people of the world. 🦊❤️
550. “meow ok”
fending for himself
living off stranger’s kindness
he purrs, “we’re ok” 🦊❤️
The other day as I approached Tommy’s home base in the woods, he heard my trekking poles hitting the frozen ground and he came out of hiding to greet me. As he approached me I noticed his eternal vigilance in paying attention to and reacting to even the slightest noises around him (a squirrel, a bird and a falling walnut). Every day spent in paying attention to everything to stay safe and feel safe must be exhausting. I thought about my observations as I petted him as he sat on my lap. I felt a great deal of gratitude and honor that he would be relaxed enough with me to spend time sitting on my lap. In my eyes, Tommy is larger than life. 🦊❤️
