You Have to Be Careful
You have to be careful telling things.
Some ears are tunnels.
Your words will go in and get lost in the dark.
Some ears are flat pans like the miners used
...
Till then ...

Not just another toe walker ...
... hanging eight,
he's speedier than the dickens.
Cowabunga!
Mission accomplished.
This might also be called, chickadee-as-Ferrari.
Fooling around with mirror images ~
must be all the gray days making me positively loopy,
playing tricks with...

Serendipity with a single keystroke
My thought was to compose a lovely, ethereal tree photo for a Christmas post ...
The roast was cooking, the dogs were fed, a bottle of red
opened, poured and emptying being enjoyed. And then came some spare minutes to play with photos.
This...

Sun ball ...

it fits between my paws.

Baby, it's cold outside
Can't let a little bit of weather stop the training, so we
move inside for the winter ...
gotta keep your paws warm when you're workin' on the fancy turns.
Never know when you might need some of 'em ...
like in February,
when we might be competing...

Shekels and rubies
and pearls.
Beachcombing
with needle & thread ...
stitching the tides.

Night self ...
It is cold.
Dark early.
Searching for light becomes exceedingly important, but it can also lead
to looking hard ...
intently ...
at things I might not otherwise make time for.
Slowing down.
Opening my eyes.
Time again for...

Tongs for dyehards
When our merry band of natural dyers decided (wholeheartedly) to gather one last time
before winter sets in and puts the big kabosch on outdoor *cooking,*
it seemed only fitting that this enthusiastic group of
dyehards
should celebrate their past...

Texture Tuesday ... free & easy
Since it's the last edition of Texture Tuesday until 2013, I could not resist posting
a little send-off photo of someone who has no trouble
being 'free & easy.'
You remember her, don't you, that furry one on the left ...
the one who doesn't like...

Texture Tuesday ... dream
Do not wake me
for I have written the love letter
and tossed it into the sea ...
tis the only way I can remain with thee.

... passage to America
More often than not, I choose to sit in my jeep for the watery commute "to America"
(an expression used by the islanders when we refer to traveling to the mainland).
Some might call me anti-social
and that's ok in my books.
Most folks leave the car decks...

Texture Tuesday ... storm
For those of us who are not there
we watch the news,
we listen.
We try not to worry ... too much.
Many will write about this one in the days to come.
There will be expressions of this event that go far beyond what I am capable of here...

Weaving a tideline
Today I constructed a makeshift loom
done the old way from things at hand:
a basket ~ just the right size, long and narrow ~ and a warp of leftover jute
from the bean trellis.
I first wrote about this simple style of loom-making back HERE,
with...
