Autumn wrote a poem in the air,
in ink of sky perfume,
I listened with my eyes…

Angel Trumpet. Rich with paradox reflecting the plant’s stunning beauty and its extreme toxicity. Its powerful hallucinogenic properties have made it a prominent figure in shamanic rituals, while its danger has also spawned more cautionary tales. #UniquePlants

Yesterday, I witnessed their dance. I don’t know the purpose, given we are not in mating season, but it was full of whimsy. It caught me off guard so I failed to get a video.

Whoever made this witch scarecrow, with the authentic wasp nest, for this small town secret scarecrow contest is a sure fire winner.

And so now I’m wondering if they painted it or Mother Nature.

The important thing is that we can rebuild something fully new and better, which is why facing the severity of this moment can be a source of hope rather than paralysis.

This hosta bud imagines that it’s spring again and attempts one last show before Mother Nature puts all of her plants to bed for winter.

TO BE FRANK!! We the people, all of the people, are sick of politicians playing games and using propaganda to scare us into submission.

California, this November 4th, the whole country is counting on you.

Prop 50 puts our elections back on a level playing field, preserves independent redistricting over the long term, and lets the people decide.

So return your ballot today. Vote yes on 50.

This is my favorite photo of yours so far! I may borrow it. I may write a poem about it. It brings so many emotions to the surface. It could even tell a story.

I am in a small town today listening to a MAWW share her thoughts on DEI and how it may present challenges to her group of folk. I’m trying to think of the words to help her comprehend the paths my generation of women had to clear for her freedom & success—that she needs to extend this to others.

Can’t go wrong with Alan Rickman. So much complexity. Oftentimes we have many types, so why choose?

Reminds me of an old school song by Van Morrison “Into the Mystic”. Maybe this is what he was singing about.

If the weather is not conducive to constructing a campfire, you can roast a perfectly acceptable marshmallow over a gas stove burner with a fork. #food #quirkybehavior
