Gold threads in the sky
blue waves gather their secrets
one bird carries dusk

Some evenings don’t need words — just a horizon and a single wingbeat.

Buried, but not gone—just resting under a clean sheet of snow.
Mt. Hood today. ❄️

“Mt Jefferson resting between gold and blue this evening, while the valleys below exhaled fog.”

“Among moss and mist, November whispers: nothing rushes, yet all flows.”

“And wander I must—toward the light that lingers on distant peaks.”

Mt. Jefferson glowing in the last light of day, seen from Mt. Hood.
A quiet moment. A pull toward the wild.

Hiked Silver Falls today. Behind Middle North Falls, time slowed—beauty carved by centuries. But nature turned: an older couple fell. With no service, hikers used satellite SOS. An off-duty responder and rescue teams saved them. Grateful for tech and first responders.

Haystack Rock, Oregon Coast

“When goods do not cross borders, soldiers will.” … 19th-century French economist Frédéric Bastiat

Walking home isn’t just about getting from point A to point B; it’s about finding moments like this that remind me: “Not all who wander are lost.” Sometimes, the journey itself is where the peace lies.

“Yesterday’s walk felt like wandering through a dream—frosted trees, heavy fog, and a chill that cut deep with the damp air.”
