Hints of Fall

California has wind and heat and fires in the Fall. 

However, sometimes we're lucky enough to see hints 

that Autumn is near in the Golden State.

A Ground Squirrel's Squeal

     A Curious Cat (not quite all black)

Then through the trees and in the heart

that feeling that only this time of year

can bring.

Let's slow down and enjoy 

before it is gone

Blessings This Fall 

The New Seekers - I'd Like To Teach The World To Sing 1972 with Lyrics

Harmony In Our World

As world leaders meet . . .

Let's hope for togetherness, oneness, kinship--

In another word like that beautiful song from

The New Seekers in 1972: Harmony.

Surprise

Daily we must remind ourselves 

that surprises happen when we 

least expect them. The secret: 

be alert and ready to embrace them.

          Black-crowned Night Heron 

                     
. . .And for the artist to happen onto something
beautiful is a true gift.
     Be prepared.
     Be attentive.
     Be generous--share the gift.

And in light of the word SHARE.

Do you Need Something Beautiful Today?

What a day!

I won't get political in these posts, but I will say as

human beings we have a lot to learn about being kind.

                                  Egret In Hiding

       

                                                       

        Plumeria In Bloom

                                                             

                                                      Agapanthus Reaching Out

                                            Nature brings me back to a better place.

                                                       May it also be with you.

                

                                                                  PEACE

                                 

MARCH MADNESS

(Nature's) March Madness

An afternoon walk gave me a media card full of flowers.
Yes--call it nature's slam-dunk after all the rain.

                      

                                        And here comes the bunny . . .

                                       Time for a walk and a smile.
