This Day...

Dawns cloudy...

 As we head... 

to 'Cow Camp'... 

 It's time to dismantle the sleeping quarters...

And put away the family tent... 

Quite a project...

Just the cabin stands...

Awaiting next year's visit!!!

Spirit Guides?

So many crows join my morning these days...

 Sentinels along my path...

The crow is a spirit animal associated with life mysteries and magic.  The power of this bird as totem and spirit guide is provide insight and means of supporting intentions.   If the crow has chosen you as your spirit or totem animal, it supports you in developing the power of sight, transformation, and connection with life’s magic.

As a spirit guide, the crow will guide you in getting in touch with life mysteries and develop your ability to perceive subtle shifts in energy within yourself and in your environment. It has the ability to go beyond the illusions, especially duality of right and wrong, inner and outer.

Hmmm....

This Morning's...

Find...

Maybe...an Owl?

Treasure!!

Maybe This Year...

And maybe this trap...

Will catch that tricky Leprechaun!!!

Wee Ones hoping!

Groundhog Day

Punxsutawney Phil...weather prognosticator...Punxsutawney, PA's resident groundhog...

Saw his shadow today...predicting six more weeks winter!

Who knows?

January Sunday

On the 10th Day of Christmas...

We took a road trip...Mom, Taylor and I...

To Eugene, to return Taylor to school...and Albany, to visit Mom's cousin Margaret...

And wish her Happy Birthday as she celebrates her 88th year!

Along the way we counted...

14 hawks!

Henry, our resident hawk, makes 15.

I'm wondering about the significance...

Just a busy hunting day?... or a message?

HAWK - is the messenger. It is also about visionary power and guardianship, the hawk is very protective of the young in its nest. It teaches us about providing for family and self. Hawk teaches us to be observant and to pay attention to what we may overlook. This could mean a talent we don't use, a blessing for which we haven't expressed gratitude, or a message from Spirit. The hawk has keen eyesight, it is about opening our eyes and seeing that which is there to guide us.

Hmmmmmm...

Who is he?....

Is he...Speedman? I he...Elvis?
Is he...my Spike?

Something's different...I'm a bit confused...

What do you think?

What the heck, Huck?

I've only been away for 2 weeks!...left you army crawling across my floor! What's this about shakin'n'movin'...AND...practicing standing? Where's my baby boy?What's up?

Wondering?

How does this beautiful plant live only on air? (well, and a bit of water?)

Why do homegrown veggies look and taste so superior? Are my flowers really more gorgeous than most?

Is Huckleberry really a retriever?

Is the moon full tonight?

Hmmmmmmm?
