Home and Back Again

So fellow travelers, fueled by a good strong cup of coffee to remedy jet lag from yesterday’s return trip,  my morning meditation by our pond stirred up mixed emotions swirling like fish gliding in and out of the water lily leaves. ~ Sudden flash of gold Revealing hidden darkness Morning Reflections ~ Oppressive heat and […]

Faith Full

So fellow travelers, being aware it’s easy to pass off yesterday’s ardent post about my week with Switchfoot as the spellbound babble of a star struck fan I wanted to follow up because these exceptional musicians are such genuinely accessible humans they allow us to feel more like family than fans. Drew Shirley gets some […]

Westward Home

So fellow travelers, this past week brought waves of joy, healing, grace and some damn fine rock and roll I am still integrating the experience and as the insights begin to take coherent form those will be shared with my favorite images of the week’s events and memories.

So fellow travelers, last night, at a small music club, Switchfoot gave a special performance for the fans who have gathered for their 2019 Getaway week leading up to the Bro-Am beach festival later this week.

So fellow travelers, a series of winter weather fronts has laid down layers of thick ice concealed beneath pristine, powder soft coatings of fresh snow. Walking even a few steps has become a treacherous undertaking; I fell hard in my driveway getting out of the car a few days ago. Fortunately the fall resulted in […]

“Your thoughts are the atmosphere through which you move.” Hugh Prather So fellow travelers, the quote above was the recent thought for the day from an inspirational calendar which sits in a spot I walk by several times a day. It syncs nicely with this line from a book I am reading : “What are […]

Walking Towards the Light

So fellow travelers, even after hitting “publish,” the last entry felt incomplete, yet I had resolved to start writing again, so I pushed an ending onto it and posted the first entry for the year. It felt more like the final entry for last year and on thinking so, this quote came to mind: “So […]
