Suddenly, I am craving an adult kick scooter. Huh...

Friday Photo

{this moment} - A Friday ritual. A single photo - no words - capturing a moment from the week. A simple, special, extraordinary moment. A moment I want to pause, savor and remember. (Inspired by Soule Mama)

Earth Day

Whatever happened to Earth Day?  I have seen a spattering of events here and there, but nothing like the carnival of choices of yester year.

Maybe I am more sensitive to it as I am currently involved in a nature writing course. Or perhaps, the one day spectacle of do gooders and hippies has morphed into a 365 day a year involved cadre of concerned citizens saving the environment and the earth through a daily grind.

I sincerely hope it is the second scenario.

What are you committed to or (re) committing to this Earth Day?

48-fortey ate (+ 1 )(Oops, how is that for a Freudian slip?) I meant to say 49

This is it.  This is what my forty eight (49) looks like.  Not what I expected, if I even had any expectations, but upon consideration of what has transpired to get here and a multitude of lesser alternatives, it is GOOD.  On my own bequest...may there be MANY more.
