Back in Vermont

Here for a month to assist my daughter after a severe back injury, I hope to sneak in another round of manuscript submissions between caregiving activities. This daughter and her wife live on the side of a mountain, looking across the valley to another rim of mountains on the other side. A more inspiring place to live or work or retreat  I cannot imagine. 

Every morning I start here...

...and go here...

...to breathe the breath of the universe and plan our work for the day.

Spectacular time of year for an extended stay in Vermont and to share the changing of the leaves.  But it's more than the color of the leaves. It's the chill of the air, the quietude of the place, the exhilaration that comes when you stand on the edge and take it all in. Breathe deep and join me as I post from the same POV every week to share the visible changes. 

Progress report: One week down, three to go, MRI happened, back somewhat improved, third Covid boosters received, three submissions accomplished, leaves still multiple shades of green.

Pollinators Divine

Just this and nothing more, one sunny morning in my front yard.  It was enough. 

Turn your volume up to hear the buzz.
