flamingos teach us the art of cooperation and coexistence

Namibia #5 – its vastness leaves you feeling alone…
The Desert, for me, is a vast, barren land where the extremes of nature are found. As the wind blows, one can quickly be lost in wilderness wanderings, hopefully to emerge with new insights and dreams. One of the largest … Continue reading

Namibia #4 – drinking from the waterholes of life!
It’s almost miraculous that so many African animals manage to eke out an existence in the arid, desert-like environment of Namibia — elephants, lions, cheetah, rhinos, oryx and wild horses to name a few. We can be sincerely thankful that … Continue reading
Namibia #3 – Finding other kinds of memory gems!
A biting wind greeted us on our arrival at Kolmanskop. No more than 45 degrees outside, the swirling fog couldn’t temper the chill even as the barely visible shape of the sun began brightening the gray morning sky. You would … Continue reading

Yosemite – where you receive abundant natural blessings.
A few weeks ago I wanted to get out of the office and do some camping, but all my favorite coastal sites were full. So, for the fun of it, I looked online at campgrounds in other locations to see … Continue reading

July – The grace and beauty of Swan wisdom – take the ride!
San Francisco’s Palace of Fine Arts is a stunning historic landmark. Modeled after classic Greco-Roman architecture, the palace was built as a temporary structure for the 1915 Pan-American Exhibition. It stood for decades until it was reconstructed with more permanent … Continue reading

June – walking down a path…into the light!

April – Tip-toe through the tulips with her…

March 4 – Why draw a circle and a straight line?
