UPDATE: The Buddhist monks are so very close to DC today -- so close to their goal with their March for Peace.
Very glad to hear they are apparently all happy and well.
I'll be sure to tune in to YouTube or some other (news?) platform to hear them speak tomorrow or Tuesday.

A little lost kitten wandered up to our back door and zoomed in the moment we opened it.
We're going to post images around the neighborhood today in hopes of finding her family.
Poor little girl. She's the sweetest thing ever...!

It's a beautiful morning! A light wind blows through the trees. The ice and snow are nearly all melted.
Maybe a nice, long walk today outdoors? It's a lovely day for it. Expected high of 34F today! Wow!
A little "recovery" today, courtesy Mother Nature.

Thinking of Spring? Well, maybe not QUITE yet.
My head and heart may be in the right place, even if my doorstep and driveway (now covered in ice and snow) are not.
Likely to thaw soon, I imagine. Stay tuned! 🤍

I’m busy working on lots of new ideas, keeping some quite spontaneous. I’ve got spring on my mind because I’m feeling a little tired of cold damp winter weather. I’m also enjoying using Schminke’s granulation watercolour paints

What a pleasant surprise today, this photo, these colors, given the bleak, 22F degrees and grays just about everywhere I look today: clouds, streets, landscapes...people.
Thank you, @writerpaula!

I sometimes despair that the camera can never really capture just how amazing the natural world can be. But sometimes, just sometimes, the winter light hits those reeds and all those reflections pop... #birds #birdphotography #birding #photooftheday #photography #NatureIsAmazing

Went to see Buddhist monks during their 2300 mile Walk for Peace.
One monk was injured early on in a traffic accident - lost a leg. Their small dog has had surgery during the walk. Someone has gifted them shoes for those who wear them.
A few regular folk are walking with them.

A storm like this came through around the early 2000's. Power out 7 days 6 nights. No power = no well water.
🤨
A few things left to do: prepare > food, bottle > water, make a STACK of spells & incantations to make it all go away.
My internet may be down or my power out ~3-4 days? Don't worry!

Well said, Mr. Prime Minister. This seems like a good vision, a good and reasonable strategy -- a stretch in some areas, I'm sure, but nevertheless inspiring.

An unexpected holiday today! I conspired to squeeze in without an appt with my hairdresser and get my hair cut.
A lovely sunset and I am NOW conspiring to get out there and try to see the Aurora Borealis, predicted to be visible this far South -- for once.
Excited!

MLK Jr won the Nobel Peace Prize in 1965 and has inspired generations to protest non-violently.
It's sad that so much of what we see happening here these days is attributable to a backlash against these very accomplishments.
Two steps forward -- and 3 or 4 or FIVE back. 🙁
