Birthdays Of Loved Ones

Mom would have been 93 today. She departed this life 22 years ago. To say I miss her is an understatement.

I see post form friends that have lost their loved ones as well .. so today's post is a beautiful Northern Cardinal for all of the empty places in hearts everwhere. Hugs to all, and I love you Mom!

Finding Peace

Teresa took this photo as we were hiking along the Great Miami River. It was so peaceful.

I love Thanksgiving Day. It is my favorite holiday. The food, family: the atomosphere is special. I realize that not everyone is blessed to have this in their life at this time. I hope you found a least some space or call it some peace in your life, regardless of your circumstances.

Fallen But Not Forgotten

Clearly this tree has been down for a long time. What is really cool is how new life grows where the old life ends. Life is a big circle that never ends.

I shot this photo while hiking at Garbry Big Woods Sanctuary. Such a beautiful place!

Color me Jay

I photographed this bluejay at Garbry Big Woods. She looks very young and had tons of energy. Life is still mostly in front of my feathered friend (well, maybe she does not consider me a friend, but I sure admire her colors).

I received word today that a good friend passed away. The picture below was taken at CES in Vegas this past January. I so enjoyed visiting with Kevin. We talked frequently by phone, on twitter, or by text. He was always so positive and full of energy. He always had these great one-liners, and there was always a story. I will truly miss Kevin. RIP, my friend.

Life is so frigile. It was a year ago this week that I was diagnosed with prostate cancer. Today I am clean, but you never know. Enjoy the moments my friends. Hugs.

The vlog below is from our hike at Charleston Falls. Enjoy!
