Tulips
“A tulip doesn’t strive to impress anyone. It doesn’t struggle to be different than a rose. It doesn’t have to. It is different.”

The sea! the sea! the open sea!
The blue, the fresh, the ever free!

November Night
BY ADELAIDE CRAPSEY
Listen. . .
With faint dry sound,
Like steps of passing ghosts,
The leaves, frost-crisp’d, break from the trees
And fall.
Flowers don’t worry
Flowers don’t worry about how they’re going to bloom. They just open up and turn toward the light, and that makes them beautiful. ~Jim Carrey
A hike along Pine Lake Loop trail
Point blank hiking
Bringing a camera along on a mountain hike can be a double-edged sword. For me, the day will either be a 1). focused hike up a rocky, mountain trail with a breathtaking vista at an alpine lake as my reward and I may or may not remember to take a picture at the top, or 2.) a photographic safari that requires stopping every five feet along the trail to get low to the ground to notice something unusual at point blank range with the lens of my camera. They are both great reasons to get up into the mountains, to be sure. But I can’t do both at the same time. So yesterday, I went point blank hiking.
