black and white

ORANGEis that so?
after coming out of black and white
thousands of years
there's orange
before
it's anything
you got to feel it
how many ions
till violet
till Oneness
we'll see :)
it's all One
after all
the spectrum of colors

black and white


i did
i smoked one
it's not that
not what you think
it's why
why
can't i deal
with emotions
like you, like all
you out there
why
so many shades of grey
why all these colors
why do i live in a rainbow
a rainbow
of Love

how do you do it?

de vogel is gevlogen

Alexander, just phoned a minute ago, to say he is in Grand Prairie!!!
This time he is driving South not on a trip. But he flew from the nest. He left Wednesday morning, only yesterday. He is driving down.
He will be starting College in Medicine Hat. He will be taking the Paramedic program, Applied Health Sciences.
He said, see you at Christmas

And these are pictures of Sullivan the Seagull, from the story Jonathan Livingston Seagull.

Well it actually was at Sellkall Lake, almost 2 weeks ago. This the parent who was screaming over her/his one young, defending their private beach.

If i was a real writer, i made a story too

As i was waving Alexander goodbye,from the grocery store parking lot, who shows up; Mr Sullivan, one of Alexander favorite teachers in high school.
Thanks for the hug Mr. Sullivan, i needed it. It was not as bad as sending Alexander of to Kindergarten, but still quite emotional.

I can spot sheep!

from miles away

so the first photo is taken with telephoto lens and the second, how i seen it from the Haines road, (last week)

Today: What's going on, when one hangs out the laundry as it is raining?
This morning i just did that. I don't think i have ever done that before.
It just seemed to make sense this morning as i had a (for me) busy day ahead. Now here at 7.30 pm, when i'm already through with all the being busy. I think i could have waited till now, half past seven still a reasonable hour to hang laundry outside. The only thing; it is still raining.(what do you think; should i bring it in and put it through the spin cycle again? I do not have a dryer(don't want one.

Hmmm but you know what, i might be a little out of it. (Among other things, Alexander is leaving for college tomorrow.) But i can indeed spot sheep! which is no small feat. On the mountains here there are very many white rocks, as there are many little white cars on the road(i just felt like throwing that in). Not all are sheep.
So i feel i have indeed become some sort of wilderness woman, to be able to see that.
My husband, son (and many others) have always been better at spotting wildlife. The wildlife, they do not all (like the Eagle) sit above you in the tree, waiting to be seen.

juvenile eagle


sitting silently above me
turned away, facing the river
it knows i'm here
once in a while it will turn its head 180 degrees to look at me

Thanks
