Men occasionally stumble over the truth, but most of them pick themselves up and hurry off as if nothing ever happened.

Tiny Gardens
I went for a walk in our woods yesterday. The clouds swept across the hill just before I left, darkening the sky and threatening rain. The woods were dim and damp. Mushrooms abounded. A white fungus or mold blotched the … Continue reading
Yesterday’s Walk
While I rave all the time about the convenience of having state park land right behind my house, I think the woods up there are less than exciting. There’s a spot we call the Scenic Overlook, but it doesn’t overlook … Continue reading
Ready, Set, Action!
Taking a walk was the last thing I felt like doing today, but I needed the exercise. I needed to do it for both my mental and my physical states. I hate being overweight. It makes me feel bad. Worse … Continue reading

Day at the Beach
I did not take my camera with me for my walk today. It was late and the light was failing. “Eh,” I thought to myself, “There probably won’t be anything to see anyway.” Naturally, the rabbit that always runs stood … Continue reading
Got Soul?
My pictures of Niagara Falls made me start thinking about photography as an art. They’re fine pictures, but they’re “stock.” You can go online and find the same pictures on other websites, not because the contributors all stole from each … Continue reading
