I was graced by daffodils nodding in the morning sunlight. And this afternoon a white butterfly.

According to William Least Heat Moon, author of Blue Highways, “There is one almost infallible way to find honest food at just prices in blue-highway America: count the wall calendars in a café.”

Edward Hopper would be at home here.

This is a conversation the crows outside my window have every morning.

A promise of a rainbow.

The map of Hookland is written on the heart of everyone who enjoys your work. Take care.

I love that sound! Whenever I hear it on brick streets I run to see the source. Beautiful draft animals.

Shadows can be just as eloquent.

As a Catholic this story sounds familiar.

Bitterly cold this week with highs well below freezing so staying close to home. The odd thing is that I don’t remember feeling cold while in Washington. We lived on an Air Force radar station in the mountains. Twenty two miles to Colville, the nearest town.

Two years since a real snow. And not nearly the snow we had when I was growing up. ❄️ What is XC skiing?

I miss snow like that! Sledding and snow ice cream in Washington state. The best childhood!

Snow day! No school.

There are some perks to being old. Free senior drinks at Wendy’s, a discount at the movie theater, and of course speaking your mind. Because what else really matters?

Wishing you a year filled with beautiful moments and images.

So beautiful it looks effortless. And I’m sure it wasn’t.

Kansas has beautiful sunsets. And endless horizons.

A flamboyance of flamingos.

Time slows down in A&E. Hope you at least have a bed while waiting. God love you.

The bees and I get along very well in my pollinator garden. I had not heard of talking to them.
