  • Rabbit, etc

    The rabbit is back and has a friend with him. The two made an appearance and came out of the tall grass by the bird feeder. I guess they wanted to pick up the seeds on the floor for a little morning snack. I love you rabbits, I said. They turned to look at me,…

  • Transmute

    Tonight I walked to the meadow and was surprised to see that there were seven deer there. They looked at me, unafraid and curious. The dog was on his lead and pulled to see them. We interrupted their meeting. The dog and I stood still to watch them at the edge of the meadow. They…

  • Beauty All Around Us

    Put those phones away and look around. Really live in the world. The world is a beautiful place. Focus on this beauty and it returns to you. A little nest appeared under my house. It is a beautiful little cone shaped nest. The nest was made with love, twigs, grass and leaves. It was left…

  • Fire

    Fire is powerful. In a positive sense, it clears the way for rebirth, regrowth, transformation and represents the warmth of home. Fire brings light to the world. When we are out of balance, it is deadly. It will clear the path for renewal by destroying everything that caused imbalance. As we watch the fires in…

  • Winter

    The morning is quiet and the sky is dark. I look out the window across the way and point out the lights in the distance.  Look at the star in the sky, I say to my husband.  It’s the north star he says.   Yes, I smile. It’s the Northstar.   The morning sky is dark…

  • Does America Really Want to Win The Environmental Battle?

    Climate change is happening all around us.   The fires in NYS and NYC are reminders that climate change is more and more a daily reality.  Recently,  floods in the South devastated towns.  My husband and I had been to the Smokey’s and Asheville and were stunned by the damage.  The lives lost are tragic…

  • Autumn

    It’s dark in the morning and the sun comes up after 7am.  I love autumn mornings.  The air is crisp, fresh and cold. I have my coffee looking out at the valley. My husband makes more coffee for us. We voted yesterday. The pace of people in and out of the voting area was brisk.…

  • Fall

    The geese have taken up residence by the house. They love to sit under the apple trees. Our dog is intent on chasing them so we keep him on a lead to give them space. They were under the front window this morning and we watched them pick at grass and seeds for breakfast. They…

  • Things done and unfinished

    The Coyote made her den outside my window. It’s in the hill where the earth was moved behind the house. That displaced earth became a home. I saw the pups at dawn. They were up up and out, on top of the hill. One pup glanced at me as I watched through the window. One…
