Love, if it is love, never goes away.
It is embedded in us,

The Road goes ever on and on
Down from the door where it began.
Now far ahead the Road has gone,
And I must follow, if I can,
Pursuing it with eager feet,
Until it joins some larger way
Where many paths and errands meet.
And whither then? I cannot say
J.R.R. Tolkien

I have four 20x30 images in this charitable event, 9/25. I’ve also donated two 12 by 18 images, matted/framed, and five prints for the silent auction. Last year this auction raised 270k via 20 local artists, for Revel, a nonprofit that supports young adults with autism.

“The landscape conveys an impression of absolute permanence. It is not hostile. It is simply there—untouched, silent and complete. It is very lonely, yet the absence of all human traces gives you the feeling you understand this land and can take your place in it.”

These are my best friends five years ago hiking way up high, during Covid in 2020. We still #GetOutside every single day, usually in our local National Forest. Yesterday, my little Jack Russell was diagnosed with Cushings disease, she’s 13.5 and has changed a lot recently. She’s my BFF. 🐶 ❤️😔
