For Everything There is a Season:
This juxtaposition of pansies and holly made me think of the transition that people in the USA are currently undergoing. The fair-weather days for pansies are fading. Now is the time for the strength and resilience of the holly bush.

Walking between museums in Annapolis, MD, I spotted this pretty alley. When cities echo nature, it tides me over until I can get back into the wild.

When hiking, there sometimes is no pre-made path in the direction you need to go. Feels like a good metaphor for life right now.

Excerpt from Adelaide Anne Procter's The Ghost in the Picture Room from 1859. Her words ring true to me even in 2025.
