hi 👋 Updated! Here for cats, music, food, travel, & nature. I know the world is on fire & my way of staying sane is to find beauty & light here and outside. Newly into photography & am loving my fujifilm xT5. Here to connect with all of you in a non-creepy way! Still distracted by alpacas & taters.

@thatbootlegguy.bsky.social mentioned pozole the other day so I decided to try my hand at making some. It’s not a tater but it’s quite tasty!
Bowl of pozole soup topped with cilantro, lime, cabbage, and avocado slices.

Northern lights in the Bluegrass. This is the first time we've seen them with the naked eye here!

Thank you to everyone sharing beautiful auroras tonight.

One of my favourite things ever is when we feel awed together over the beauty created by this planet we all share.

Happy Saturday Morning ⭐️✨

#Sunrise and #Scape.
One of my favorite ❤️ Pre-dawn from Glacier National Park Sept ‘25

A horizon glows with fire.🔥

#Artyear #NationalParks #Parkchat #scape #landscape #eastcoastkin
Dawn breaks behind the mountains, sending broad rays of gold through a band of soft gray cloud. The peaks rise in layered silhouettes—sharp and dark against the deepening light—while the forested slopes below remain cool and shadowed. The lake mirrors the sky’s transformation: molten amber and muted violet ripple gently across its surface, where the first warmth of day meets the still chill of morning. A faint mist drifts above the waterline, caught between night’s retreat and the sun’s advance, as the horizon glows with fire.

I wish there were nursing pathways to change fields after being in one specialty for awhile. I’ve been remote forever but would love a pathway to see patients again. We lose so many nurses in the profession when we could offer different specialty training instead. #nursing

I’ve been mostly grumbly this week. The time change has the great outdoors in darkness by the time I’m off work which makes me extra grumbly. I did have some taters last night so there is something! ✨🥔

we don't yet know what will happen in tomorrow's elections. some will win. others will lose. but freya decided the hollow under a basket's handle is in fact a cat leg holder, and that makes her the real winner in my book
A gray cat is putting her paws through the space between a basket and its handle. What do you call that space, anyway? "Handle clearance"??

Well, I think I have recovered from last night's ball game, so here is one for #Stunday! This is on the north shore of Lake Ontario looking towards the island where the dead/alive tree I posted yesterday is located!

Did not expect one of the best paragraphs I’d read about baseball would come from an Irish newspaper

www.irishexaminer.com/sport-column...
And in that pause between pitch and contact - longer than logic, shorter than hope - we remembered why baseball existed long before we judged a sport's value by viral moments and betting apps. It is the romance of failure. The mortal beauty of trying and missing seven times out of 10 and still being considered great. It is the only sport where patience is a weapon, and panic the surest death. You cannot simply run out the clock in baseball; you must face it, pitch by terrifying pitch, until it finally releases you.

That’s what I get for watching baseball. It’s always heartache 😆 I need a tater
