Think winter walks are miserable? They’re actually saving my sanity. Fresh air, filtered light, and unexpected fungi are keeping me going. Watch the video and tell me what keeps you grounded this time of year.

Painted tonight, but it’s nowhere near done, so instead here’s a piece I did in 2024 called Frosty Twilight (16”x20” mixed media). I went through a whole birches phase and this was part of that series.
Anyhoooo….who’s ready for Monday?! I’m not! Lol #art #painting #mixedmedia #sundayscaries

Fall has always been my favorite season. The time when everything bursts with its last beauty, as if nature had been saving up all year for the grand finale.

She's my favorite. 💕
Could I but ride indefinite,
As doth the meadow-bee,
And visit only where I liked,
And no man visit me,
And flirt all day with buttercups,
And marry whom I may,
And dwell a little everywhere,
Or better, run away
-- Emily Dickinson

#FightingBirds is today’s theme for #BirdOfTheDay. A mockingbird is having a territorial dispute with a red-bellied woodpecker, who stood his ground. When raising young, mockingbirds will attack anything deemed a threat, making them interesting to photograph. #EastCoastKin #birds

Of the 7 wonders of the ancient world, the Hanging Gardens of Babylon was the shortest lived at only 600 years.
More modern wonders such as the Crystal Palace stood for a mere 86 years.
By comparison, in many ways a more impressive structure, the Bearwood Tunnel lasted only 117 days.

Firecrest amongst the hawthorn berries!

If you can't see your friend who needs a hug, can you send them one by a voice message or a call? You'll be surprised at how much a call can lift someone. ☕ 🤗
