Hiking to Laverty Falls. Fundy National Park. New Brunswick, Canada.
I can’t believe it’s Thursday already. This week has flown by so quickly that I hardly noticed it.
The subtlety of nature

Fiery dragonfly
You can find it in the little things.

Hitching post, standing stone, and stairs in the fog
The large print giveth, but the small print taketh away.
~ Tom Waits, Small Change
It’s been interesting times. I brought some of the fog photos from Wednesday morning to show you while I tell you all about it. Well, maybe not all about it. Some about it. I don’t think anybody wants to hear (read) all.

A fairy house. (Fundy National Park, New Brunswick, Canada.)

Enlightened flower
Like the Guatama Buddha, I went out and sat under a tree. It wasn’t a Bodhi tree and I didn’t sit as long or come away as enlightened, but I did learn a thing or two.

Stairs to the beach at Cape Enrage
Once upon a time, a very long time ago (going on 20 years, I think) in a land far away, I took a fall down a long, steep set of metal stairs in a castle ruin. It happened in Scotland, and I obviously lived to tell about it, but during the fall I wasn’t sure I would. Even M had thoughts of having to take me home in a body bag. We both agree it seemed to take hours for me to reach the bottom although it was probably a matter of seconds. I miraculously made it to the bottom with almost no injuries (a cut, a missing fingernail, a little mud on my nose).

Autumn reflections
It is raining here in the Bogs today. Damp, chilly, gray. The occasional gust of wind swings by and leaves come flying off the trees by the hundreds. Or the thousands. There are a lot of leaves out there.
