2018 09-23, 3985 – MUM’S THE WORD – The old saying “mum’s the word” seems to imply that one should not share something they know. Mum flowers are the opposite. They shout out the beauty of the season for all to appreciate. Hard to keep a secret like that.
​

Mum's the Word

Seed Blooms

2018 09-22, 3984 - SEED BLOOMS – I discovered a group of tall white flowers growing at the edge of the clearing. Upon investigation I found that it was seeds creating the image of flowers. I knew soon that the wind would scatter them, so I took a picture to hold in my mind.
​

2018 09-21, 3983 - EMERALD MOSS ON WHITE QUARTZ – The bright green moss covering a chunk of white quartz stood out in the forest landscape. It was as if I had discovered a hidden treasure, and in fact I had. I carried it with me in my heart.

Danger in the Woods

2018 09-20, 3982 - DANGER IN THE WOODS – I saw a large dangling trunk of a tree caught up in the branches close to it, just a few feet off the trail. It was a danger to anyone who ventured too close. I was reminded that it is always good to be vigilant when walking our paths.
​

2018 09-19, 3981 - READY FOR LAUNCH – We have had the playground tower for many years, as well as the bell for it. Now as the meditation hut is nearing completion we are ready to launch the tower to an upright position. Sometimes it takes a while to use our parts and pieces.
​

Ready for Launch

The Tiniest Apples

​2018 09-18, 3980 – THE TINIEST APPLES - The crab apple tree has some of the tiniest apples I have ever seen. The birds are about the only ones that notice the little fruit. There are people who have abilities that go unnoticed because they are not the flashy ones. They are often special.
 

2018 09-17, 3979 - JUST ENOUGH FOR A TASTE – I had forgotten about the old plum tree that hardly ever bears fruit. When I took photos of surrounding trees, I discover one ripe plum. It was just enough for a taste to remind me of what Nature can provide for us.
​

Just Enough for a Taste

Hard to See

2018 09-16, 3978 - HARD TO SEE – I caught a little movement out of the corner of my eye as I walked a trail and discovered a tiny toad almost impossible to see. I paused, photographed it, and went on my way with a smile, feeling grateful for this brief encounter.
​

​2018 09-15, 3977 - TOO MUCH TO BEAR – The bears have been enjoying the apples and pears this year. I discovered a broken limb on an apple tree in the orchard. A bear had climbed up to get the fruit. People often feel like life is too much to bear, but we have Belief to help us.

​2018 09-14, 3976 - CAN YOU HEAR THE BEAR HOLLERING? – The original title of this podcast was Copper Peak, but as I recorded the message I captured two bear hollers that were close to the house. You never know when wildlife wants to add their voices to the podcasts.

2018 09-13, 3975 - BEFORE THE LEAVES CHANGE – I wanted to capture one more photo before the leaves began their change into their autumn colors to remind me of the summer just past. Once the movement begins, we can all embrace positive changes in all part of our lives.
​

Before the Leaves Change

Old Tom

2018 09-12, 3974 - OLD TOM – I watched a pair of large old Tom turkeys grubbing for food on our freshly mowed lawn. I thought back to a time when I longed to see this bird here in New Hampshire. I wondered what stories Old Tom could tell as well as old people’s tales.
​

2018 09-11, 3973 - GRACEFUL FLOWERS – Earlier this summer, one of the Center Members planted some perennial flowers in the planter at the beginning of the Grace Trail. Now these graceful plants have beautiful flowers that may touch the lives of those that walk by.
​

Graceful Flowers

Blue Horizon

2018 09-10, 3972 - BLUE HORIZON – I have special memories of the first time we traveled north toward the White Mountains many years ago and I first saw the blue mountains on the horizon. Now I see the same view from the mountain where we settled, and I can expand my soul to the vastness beyond.
​

2018 09-09, 3971 - VISITING THE VIEW FOR THE FIRST TIME – I recently had the opportunity to show a student from years ago the views from the mountain for the first time. Then again, it is always like the first time for me with something new and wondrous to discover.
​

Visiting the View for the First Time

The Living Earth

2018 09-08, 3970 - THE LIVING EARTH – I am constantly amazed at the different types of growth that make up the living earth. I wonder if other places in the Cosmos have experienced or will experience the same. To me it is a wonderful mystery of learning what life is really all about.
​

​2018 09-07, 3969 - WHERE THE GOLDENROD GROWS TALL – There is a place at the foot of the Lupine Field where the goldenrod grows tall enough to look like bushes. Other places where the soil is thin, the growth is stunted - like the landscape of life.

Where the Goldenrod Grows Tall

Sixteen Rod Jog

2018 09-06, 3968 - SIXTEEN ROD JOG – There is a section of Robbins Way where an inner boundary line is marked with a stone wall that the deed calls “sixteen rod jog”. I am reminded that when we have special names for special places in Nature, they can help us reconnect again.
​

2018 09-05, 3967 - LATE SUMMER SIP – I drove along the lower edge of the Lupine Field where the rough ground and thick grass made it impossible for the mower to cut. I saw a beautiful butterfly sipping sweet nectar as it prepared for a long flight south. I felt gratitude.
​

Late Summer Sip

Changeover

2018 09-04, 3966 - CHANGEOVER – The calendar has changed its page and the transition season has begun. The first hints of autumn colors are now visible, and the cooler nights help spark thoughts of fall and winter projects put off by the warm summer weather.
​

2018 09-03, 3965 - VIEW FROM UNDER THE PEAR TREE – Because there has been so much wildlife interested in our fruit trees this year, my wife moved a game camera to the trunk of a pear tree. A beautiful view was captured that reminded me that we all see things differently.
​

View from Under the Pear Tree

Hidden Energy

2018 09-02, 3964 - HIDDEN ENERGY – There is a lot of quartz hidden just below the surface on the mountain. Every once in a while, I will find basketball sized quartz-filled rock. I am grateful for this energy that many people do not realize is there, other than a positive feeling.
​

2018 09-01, 3963 - CONSTANT CHANGE – We are constantly changing the landscape of the Center. Recently we have focused on an area close to the end of the Grace Trail. Life is a constant change, and each positive action that one takes makes a difference in the landscape.
​

Constant Change

Sunny Rain

2018 08-31, 3962 - SUNNY RAIN – It was a hot afternoon and thunderstorms were in the forecast. When I glanced out the window I saw a hard rain coming down in bright sunlight. I was struck by the contrasts and noted that life can offer many views within a fleeting moment.
​

2018 08-30, 3961 - STOP, LOOK, AND LISTEN – The bear that crossed the busy highway from our driveway could have paid better attention. It just made a run for it and somehow avoided the traffic. It is always good to stop, look, and listen in life.
​

Stop, Look, and Listen

Summer Is Fading

2018 08-29, 3960 – SUMMER IS FADING – You can see it in the field and you can see it in the leaves of the trees. Summer is fading and soon it will be meteorological fall. Still, there is a lot of beauty to take in and soon the brilliance of fall will be upon us.
​

2018 08-28, 3959 – BLUE BOUQUET – There is a blue bouquet in the garden by the cabin near the orchard that looks like it should be the center of a floral arrangement on table set for a feast. My eyes feasted on what I was observing, framing it in my mind’s eye.
​

A Dragonfly Catching Some Rays

​2018 08-27, 3958 – A DRAGONFLY CATCHING SOME RAYS – I caught a reflection of the morning sun off the wings of a dragonfly catching warming rays. I took several pictures and discovered there was a hole in one of its wings. It was still perfect in my mind.

2018 08-26, 3957 – SMALL FLOWER WITH A BIG PRESENCE – A large patch of small white wildflowers in the orchard created a big presence when viewed from a distance. Single small acts of kindness when combined with others create a big presence in life.
​

Small Flower with a Big Presence

Escape

2018 08-25, 3956 – ESCAPE – People seek to escape the stresses of life in many ways, some healthy and some not. Nature can provide a very positive escape where one is free to let their mind soar into the vastness of the Cosmos. We often escape to the bench at the Lupine Field.
​

2018 08-24, 3955 – MANY COLORS AND SHAPES – The diverse landscape here in the foothills of the White Mountains is made up of many colors and shapes. It is the blend that makes it unique. The same is true when humans embrace the many colors and shapes of life.

Looking Back at Me

2018 08-23, 3954 – LOOKING BACK AT ME – I took a picture of a small white mushroom and saw that there was a tiny face staring back at me. I wondered if I was always being watched when out in Nature, and I concluded that life is a lot more than I am consciously aware of.
​

2018 08-22, 3953 – GOING BIG – The largest flowers in the gardens at the Center are from the hibiscus. Their giant blooms create a flashy red show, mid-August. The roots of the hibiscus help sustain it over the year. When people go big, it is wise to have deep spiritual roots.
​

Going Big

Joining oi the Seasons

2018 08-21, 3952 – JOINING OF THE SEASONS – The lupines have long since ceased to flower and their dry seedpods blend in with the wildflowers that bloom in August, joining the past, future and present together. Life is just that, the past, the future and the present joined together.
​

2018 08-20, 3951 – FINDING AN OLD FRIEND IN A NEW PLACE – I discovered a flower growing in the Lupine Field that I had recently been thinking about. I had not seen many of them in our flower gardens this year. There it was in a new place. Discovery is part of life.

Saving the Best for Last

2018 08-19, 3950 – SAVING THE BEST FOR LAST – The last of the daylilies are now in bloom, and I think their lavender flowers are the best of the summer. Sometimes when we try to save the best for last, we miss the moments when they are their best. I just enjoy each moment.
​

2018 08-18, 3949 – AUGUST AFTERNOONS – Now that the summer obligations have slowed down a bit, when the opportunity arises, we escape up the mountain to sit on a bench and connect to the peace and quiet.
​

August Afternoons

Understated Beauty

2018 08-17, 3948 – UNDERSTATED BEAUTY- The small blossoms on the large leaved Hosta plants can easily go un-noticed as one walks by the flower garden. There are people who have understated inner beauty that can take a moment of focusing on them to find it.
​

2018 08-16, 3947 – GRASSING IN – Last fall I cleared a small patch of land next to the Lupine Field as best as I could with the old tractor. It looked raw this spring, and now it has begun to grass in. Nature is healing the scars, as it does with time with humans.
​

Grassing In

A Journey Through the Woods

2018 08-15, 3946 – A JOURNEY THROUGH THE WOODS – There is nothing like a short journey through the woods to help bring your senses alive. There are many sights, sounds, and smells to discover. It gives your mind the opportunity to focus on the moment.
​

2018 08-14, 3945 - A GREAT YEAR FOR PHLOX – This has been a good summer so far for the tall flowering phlox that grace our flower gardens. There has been plenty of moisture to help sustain them. Positive thoughts and beliefs can help sustain us during dry times in life.
​

A Great Year for Phlox

Late Yellows

2018 08-13, 3944 - LATE YELLOWS – The last of the yellow lilies are now in bloom as the parade marches through August. I have had the pleasure of observing several varieties of yellow daylilies throughout the season. My goal is to celebrate their beauty on a daily basis all year.
​

2018 08-12, 3943 - TO BEE OR NOT TO BEE – The bright red blossom of a single beebalm plant caught my eye. Sometimes we have several of them, sometimes less. I thought of when the forest soil is disturbed and plants spring back to life. The same is true with positive actions.
​
​

To Bee or Not To Bee

A Frog in the Pond

2018 08-11, 3942 - A FROG IN THE POND – As I passed by the small pond at the Center, I remembered that I had not taken the time this year to spot a frog. I scanned the surface saw one half submerged in the water. I felt refreshed as I paused to appreciate.
​

2018 08-10, 3941 - A BEAR SAMPLING A PEAR – I spotted the yearling black bear wandering through our small fruit trees, and, as I watched, it paused by the old pear tree, stood on its hind legs and sampled some of the fruit. I was grateful to have the opportunity to watch and learn.

​2018 08-09, 3940 - A PLACE TO CONTEMPLATE – Half way up the Robbin’s Way Trail, there is a large flat boulder that was placed beside an old hemlock tree when the path to the top of the mountain was worked on. It is a place to rest and contemplate, surrounded by the wise forest.

Double Orange

2018 08-07, 3938 - DOUBLE ORANGE – The parade of daylilies continues and we now are enjoying blooms of the double orange plants. I first discovered them growing at the Center in the old gardens and have transplanted some to our house. Life is such a blend of many different ingredients.
​

2018 08-06, 3937 - GROWING WILD – I have enjoyed discovering the different wildflowers that grow in the Lupine Field. Some we may have planted, and some may have found their way there on the wind. Life is like the field. We choose to work with Nature rather than control it.
​

Growing Wild

Aliens Among Us

2018 08-05, 3936 - ALIENS AMONG US – I saw an insect that I had never seen before. It looked alien as I didn’t know or understand anything about it. I thought of all the things that we don’t understand on earth that we know nothing about.
​

2018 08-04, 3935 - ANOTHER SIGN OF LOVE – It seems as though lately I have been seeing many signs of love in Nature. I wonder if this is just my imagination or is it when I breathe in and out the Cosmos’s love that it is what is coming back to me. Actually, I know which it is.
​

Another Sign of Love

Faces in the Fungus

2018 08-03, 3934 - FACES IN THE FUNGUS – With the recent rain and humid warm weather, the forest is alive with many shapes, sizes, and colors of fungus. I discovered one red group filled with faces. I wonder if it is my eyes alone that sees the often unseen in Nature.
​

2018 08-02, 3933 - AN ANGEL IN THE SKY – As I gazed at the sky, as I often do, I decided to photograph what I saw. On further inspection it appeared as if an angel was looking down over the landscape. To me, it was another sign that we are not alone on earth.
​

An Angel in the Sky

Showing the Way

2018 08-01, 3932 – SHOWING THE WAY – A large hawk swooped over our truck as we drove the old road to the orchard. It landed on a limb and waited for us to catch up and then was off again. I wondered who had brought the hawk to affirm we were on the right path of life.
​

2018 07-31, 3931 – PROMISE FOR THE FUTURE – The partially grown green apples in the orchard show promise for a future harvest in the fall. Right now, I am already beginning to imagine the smell of a hot apple pie. Dreams become realities when we focus on their potentials.
​

Promise for the Future

Nature's Investment in the Future

2018 07-30, 3930 – NATURE’S INVESTMENT IN THE FUTURE - A single Lupine plant produces many seeds that will provide new growth in future years. Nature can often heal what man ravages. Man can help by sowing seeds of gratitude and kindness, investing in the future.
​

2018 07-29, 3929 - FILLED WITH LIFE – The little “frog” pond at the Center is filled with life. Besides frogs there are several varieties of water plants that create a peaceful focus for visitors to the grounds. Some minds are filled with life while others remain stagnant.

Filled With Life

Kissing Cousins

2018 07-28, 3928 – KISSING COUSINS – Two flowers that are related but one is wild and the other is cultivated are Queen Ann’s lace and Yarrow. The white wild blooms have spread in the Lupine Field. I am reminded how we may be related to unrelated people.
​

2018 07-27, 3927 – A MOMENT OF SILENCE – I walked on the soft rain-soaked ground to the Lupine Field and gazed across the valley. The mountains in the distance were covered with clouds. I stood alone in silence, finding peace from within from the busy world below.

A Moment of Silence

Many Shades of Green

2018 07-26, 3926 – MANY SHADES OF GREEN IN HOSTA LEAVES – When I photographed the leaves of a Hosta plant, I wondered how many shades of green were in the leaves. There are so many different shades in life for us to discover.
​

2018 07-25, 3925 – NATURE PROVIDES A DRINK OF WATER – It has been a hot dry summer, and fortunately Nature has provided a lingering drink of water for the earth over the past few days. It is also a great time for humans to pause for a moment and refresh their souls.

The Lilies Just Keep on Blooming

​2018 07-24, 3924 – THE LILIES JUST KEEP ON BLOOMING – It seems as if my whole focus this summer has been on lilies although my attempt is to be mindful each day of all the beauty surrounding me. There is always something new to discover, even in the lilies.

​2018 07-23, 3923 – JUST OUT OF THE NEST – I saw movement at the base of a large maple tree and upon further investigation realized that there was a tiny bird clinging to the bark. It must have just taken flight. Our positive thoughts and actions take flight every day if we let go of fear.

Just Out of the Nest

The Season Moves Along

​2018 07-22, 3922 – THE SEASON MOVES ALONG – The summer season is now more than half gone. It seems as if we wait through the long winter to get a short glimpse of the weather we dream about. Each day of every season is an opportunity if we are mindful of it.

Another Transplant

​2018 07-20, 3920 – ANOTHER TRANSPLANT – A few years ago I transplanted about ten hydrangeas to the Center and now white blooms grace the edge of the lawn near Barbara’s Garden. Most of us are transplants, and like the flowers we bring beauty to wherever we go.

​2018 07-19, 3919 – LIKING THEIR MOVE – A few years ago I moved three pink spirea plants to the Center and now they are growing tall, liking their move. Taking the risk of transplanting oneself or actions that can benefit others helps us share our blessings.

Liking Their Move

Beautiful Brown Eyes

​2018 07-18, 3918 – BEAUTIFUL BROWN EYES – I became aware that I was being watched as I walked beside the Lupine Field. As I investigated, I saw a group of Brown Eyed Susans dancing in the breeze, and I knew they had focused on me. I moved closer to gaze into their eyes.

​2018 07-17, 3917 – A NEW FIND IN THE FIELD – A friend told me they had seen an orange lily on top of the mountain. I searched the area, and there in the middle of the field was a wild wood-lily. It could have been overlooked, if I had not been mindful.

A New Find in the Field

Angel Reminders

​2018 07-16, 3916 – ANGEL REMINDERS – There are people who believe that they are watched over by angels, and there are those that don’t. Each individual has a choice. I personally am fascinated by signs such as dragonflies, animals, or found pennies that just appear.

2​018 07-15, 3915 – MORE LILIES – As the parade of lilies continues, I find more old friends with unique colors in bloom. Sometimes when I am in a hurry I have to remind myself that it is time to pause and take in the beauty surrounding me. My thoughts slow down and life blooms.

A Growing Brood

​2018 07-12, 3912 – A GROWING BROOD – A summer favorite of my childhood was a plant that grew shoots that took root and created new baby plants that grew and they sent out shoots. I am reminded of when we do acts of kindness and positive thoughts they grow like that plant.

​2018 07-11, 3911 – A YEARLY GIFT – The summer after my wife’s father passed, twenty-four years ago, a tiny wild rose sprouted in an unusual place and continues to bloom each year. It is a reminder of the souls that travel with us as we travel the earth plane.

A Big Treat

​2018 07-10, 3910 – A BIG TREAT – We sat on the bench at the top of the Lupine Field, pausing on our morning hike, and watched a bluebird find a big treat in in the tall grass. It posed for a picture before flying off. Nature provides us with big treats every day.

Black and Blue

Peek-A-Boo

​2018 07-08, 3908 – PEEK-A-BOO – I watched a chipmunk scurry under the tall grass from one hiding place to another and then back again as if it was playing peek-a-boo. I was reminded of all the thoughts in our conscious and unconscious minds that we play peek at.

​2018 07-07, 3907 - RAIN DROPS AND SUMMER – There is something about a rainy day in summer. It often changes our plans, and if we let that upset us, we may miss the new opportunities that Nature has provided. Each day has nourishment for our souls.

​2018 07-04, 3904 - CELEBRATING WITH ORANGE LILIES – On a day which is traditionally red, white, and blue, I am celebrating with the orange color of daylilies that decorate the flower gardens and roadsides. They are traditionally a sign of summer, and I welcome them.

​2018 07-03, 3903 - THROUGH THE HAZE – A summer Haze has engulfed the mountains, and it is just possible to make out their outlines across the valley. Even in these conditions, my clarity comes from walking the land and reaching to the sky.

​2018 07-02, 3902 - AN OLD FASHIONED ROSE – We are in the middle of an old fashioned summer with a heat wave, and an old fashioned rose given to us by my sister many years ago is blooming in the garden. It is now our chance to create new old fashioned traditions.

A Field of Flowers

Boats and Roses

​2018 06-30, 3900 - BOATS AND ROSES – We drove down to Rockland on our anniversary and walked the waterfront admiring the boats of all sizes and the beautiful roses in full bloom. It was a tranquil experience filled with the wonderment of the adventures yet to unfold.

Taking It All In

From Nut to Tree

​2018 06-28, 3898 - FROM NUT TO TREE – The acorn fell from an oak tree last fall and over the winter split open and rooted in the soft spring soil. Now a miniature tree has emerged that over time may become a giant in the forest. When we sow positivity, we are like an oak tree.
​

​2018 06-27, 3897 - DESSERT IS READY – Nature has set the table and the wild strawberries are ready to enjoy. They are a sweet treat for both man and birds and animals in the wild. All one needs to do is bend over and pick. Nature provides so much nourishment for our souls.

Dessert Is Ready

Hiding Behind a Leaf

​2018 06-25, 3896 - HIDING BEHIND A LEAF – I caught a glimpse of brown movement in the lower Lupine Field close to the woods. It was a rabbit munching on the grass. I took a picture as it hid behind a leaf. I felt very grateful that nature shared this special moment with me.

​2018 06-25, 3895 - THE FOXES ARE BACK – I discovered the first Fox Glove of the season, not yet full with flowers. It was a sign of more beauty to unfold on the landscape that I so enjoy. It is with gratitude I attempt to reflect to others the joys of connecting with Nature.

The Foxes Are Back

Another Summer Beauty Is Back

​2018 06-24, 3894 - ANOTHER SUMMER BEAUTY IS BACK – Another summer beauty has returned to grace the landscape. The Cone Flowers pop up here and there and are a delight to focus on for a moment or two. I wonder how many people pass by the beauty that surrounds us.

​2018 06-23, 3893 - BLACKBERRY BLOOMS – The small white delicate flowers on the blackberry and raspberry vines are easy to overlook with all the other blossoms vying for pollinators’ attention. Still, they are a very important part of Nature as food for birds, animals, and the soul.

Blackberry Blooms

Family Portrait

FAMILY PORTRAIT – I wanted to put together a family portrait of the columbines I have been enjoying this year, so I choice individual photos to group together. Just like human families that look more or less alike, each flower is unique and different.
 
​

​2018 06-21, 3891 - HONORING AN OLD TREE – We are not sure exactly when the old dead tree fell to the ground, but it was sometime after March 1st. It was a couple of months before we realized it. Now we honor the memory through many photos - a part of Nature that has changed.
