Rising up above the River Wear and the Old Fulling Mill in late summer sunshine, Durham's magnificent Norman cathedral in North East England, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Of all the viewpoints, this is the 'classic' capture!

Rest well far coast friend, it’s raining here, my book is calling and Jazzy boy is leaping from one place to another! We have another nor’easter this weekend too. No owl lullabies tonight just the singing wind.

Selfie shadow on the Islay Hill trail in San Luis Obispo.

A shadow of myself while standing on a hiking trail at a switchback. To the right, the trail is in the shadow and going downhill; to the left is my shadow and a steep incline. There is brown brush on the sides of the trail. A glimpse of the city of San Luis Obispo is in the distance in the upper right corner. Islay Hill trail, San Luis Obispo, California

a pocket of peace on a broody day

Jagged bedrock juts out into the pacific ocean. The broody sky creates a glow upon the still waters of the sea & the puddles on the rocks.

This is a late entry by Mike, @mikoxford.bsky.social, for #TheCampfire. He shares a cool family tradition. 🎶🎉💖

So, first, you need to know my son and I Bonnaroo’d for six straight years from 2006 through 2011. We also attended in 2014. My daughter joined us for our last three festivals.

I think the photo is from 2009. We cherish the photo and memories of our times at Bonnaroo.

The photo quality is poor. You can see that it is a photo of a photo in a frame. I didn’t want to remove it and possibly damage the photo.

It is a rare instance for me to share a family photo. You can glean that our Bonnaroo experiences are important to us.

We (my wife and I) love the image capture of the doting big brother and the beaming daughter with the festival scene as a backdrop.

The old
pushed into the mudbank
vandalized & rotting
The river
flows day in day out
vandalized & surviving
The pedestrian
floating in a small craft
observing & recording
what the old & river
have known for ages
Some last a set time
Others get forever
