Nature's Flower Gardens
|
2021 08-03, 5029 - NATURE’S FLOWER GARDENS – With all the rain this summer, Nature has produced some beautiful wildflower gardens like the one that is now blooming in the Lupine Field. I love to see the combinations that seem to change daily. I also enjoy observing people and watching them bloom.

2021 08-02, 5029 - WATCHING THE SKY – I spend a lot of my life watching the sky. Often it is for the weather, but when I am on the mountain, I like to pause and sit on a bench at the top of the Lupine Field and look for guidance in the clouds that float by. In this place the clouds inspire my positive thoughts.

A Small Yellow Beauty
|
2021 08-01, 5028 - A SMALL YELLOW BEAUTY – I recently discovered a couple of small beautiful yellow wildflowers at the top of the Lupine field that could have easily been overlooked. They reminded me of how easy it is to overlook the incredible abilities that a lot of gifted people try to hide.

2021 07-31, 5027 - MID-SUMMER CLEARANCE – Our mid-summer clearance is not a sale. It is going over the hiking trails to clear away the obstructions that have occurred over the last few months. Then again, a lot of people are clearing away obstructions in their lives following what their hearts are telling them.

An Aster Bouquet
|
2021 07-30, 5026 - AN ASTER BOUQUET – There is a small patch of asters in the Lupine Field in a place where the soil is thin, barely covering the granite ledge underneath. Its positive presence reminds me of groups of people drawn together to let their spiritual lights shine in places it is needed.

2021 07-29, 5025 - CAUSE AND EFFECT – The recent western forest fires have caused the eastern part of the country’s air to filled with a smoky, smelly haze. I think of the times Nature has reshaped the earth and how people are now contributing to the warming of the atmosphere. We can change our part.

Bold and Brassy Beebalm
|
2021 07-28, 5024 - BOLD AND BRASSY BEEBALM – There are flowers that make bold and brassy statements with their blossoms such as beebalm and others that stay in the background. People can remind us of flowers. Some are bold and brassy while others are happier staying in the background of life.
