Mid Winter 2013

A mid winter yell..... "Are you listening? Because you are missing what I am trying to tell you."

A new determination to listen, not just hear. It is beneath the everyday chatter that the real conversations are happening. It is to those conversations that I turn my attention to this Spring. I am looking forward to what I might hear.

welcome winter

tonight is the first night I have felt the chill on the air. My afternoon routine now includes gathering the wood, the kindling and coaxing my little fire into a roaring blaze. I love the smell of wood smoke. It brings back long distant memories. The soft heat is like being wrapped in a blanket and there is nothing better than falling asleep in front of the fire.......
