Sarsaparilla Trail, cold and quiet this morning, came across another photographer who was intent on trying to get a Pileated woodpecker that simply was not interested in being distracted.
I was looking for a picture to use for a holiday greeting…. I was so enthralled with my walk through the forest, that his red head will do for the holiday colour. After all, the blessing of the day will be my trip into the woodland, the peace and quiet that I found there.
Someone has shared/his/her talent with everyone, and put a homemade food “hut” out so that the seed will stay dry during our often wet/cold/freezing rain/snow and ice that comes to us over the winter.
May the spirit of the season, bring many hours of joy and happiness to you and your loved ones. Stay warm and dry. Be safe! Blessings of the season!

Look around, red is the prominent colour of the month. Red spiritually effects, stability, security, grounding, courage, action, physical and emotional survival. Red – physical energy, passion, courage, power, will and desire.
Red makes you feel passionate and energized its the warmest and most dynamic of the colours – it is said to trigger opposing emotions. Seeing so much red in the fashion outlets, I had a look in my wardrobe, not a red shirt, blouse, or top.. hmm actually I seem to be surrounded by shades of black, grey and earth colours.
Be a person who can recognize the sincerity of others. When you put your whole heart into things, you will be able to notice the sincere acts of others in the subtle things they do, and appreciate them that much more.

No red in this picture but to me it is not only spiritual , and energizing, it emotes warmth and a wonderful sense of quiet that gives me strength and an inner passion to love….

We are responsible for our choices in life. I strive for happy =^_^=… what about you…
The night was clear – the darkness was inviting – there were few stars in the sky – a stillness lay over the land – she moved with slow deliberate steps, yet her feet barely touched the ground – her movements were almost invisible shadows …the moon’s sliver of silver light highlighted her graceful form as it now picked up speed…. did I imagine her… one minute she was there, and then… … the night was clear. Only a faint scent of a lingering breeze eluded to her having been.
There are days when the you know .. the night hasn’t gone away.. it is waiting in the wings.
Appreciation is the driving force for progress and development. Express your appreciation with enthusiasm.

Recently went looking for Santa, in days of “old” at this time of year, people were searching out Christmas cheer. Merchants had their shops brimming with decorations and seasonal goodies, Xmas parades were happening, social get togethers were planned, even the church basements were being decorated for members to enjoy when they gathered for coffee and cake (social hour)
In touring around, I see or saw little of this merriment that once would just have been part of the day. Yes there are homes with decorations, and some of the stores have put up holiday decorations, but I’m not feeling the vibe. “Jolly Santa” and his crew of woodland creatures and elves seem to have faded into “never never land”
Instead of the spirit of the holidays being shared and delighted in, if you turn on the radio or watch the telly, the air is blue, gray and black. Yes there are patches of magic here and there, but it is not everywhere.

People who can constantly re-examine their posture, such as “Was there really something wrong?” are honest and wise.

Good morning all, happy start to a productive and happy week-end.
The forecast said cold, blistering winds and a possible 1.5 inches of snow. While I was out, the snow seemed to be on its way, but there were no signs of it., the sky was that cold gray that often is an indicator — but.. luck held… while in the woodland, it didn’t make an appearance.
Different story when I came out of my last destination. The parking lot was clear and dry, but 1/2 hour later when I came out.. my car was completely covered and people leaving were having to make time to clear their cars before driving away. Someone didn’t have her brush/scraper with her… I was sure I had put one in the car, but if I did, I wasn’t finding it. It was time to do what needed to be done, I used my arm and hands…. thankfully I wasn’t far from home. As soon as I got out of the car, I found the scraper and brush and put them on the back seat. !!! done!!!
You gain strength through your hardships. Whatever you learn easily or master effortlessly tends to be forgotten. The lessons you gain through repeated mistakes are what gives you genuine strength.

All the summer vegetation is gone, once again we can see the forest floor and see through and beyond the shrubs and trees that line the roadway. I watched hoping to catch a glimpse of a wild turkey or two. Didn’t linger long.. the cold was creeping into my bones.
When every door is given a special decoration – there isn’t a door in the house that isn’t showing off a beaming “happy holidays” decoration. The owners of this special haven get better and better each year at pulling together a look that shouts “HAPPY HOLIDAYS’ to everyone who passes by, or has the pleasure of an actual indoor tour.
Thursday doors everyone.. I know this is Friday, but you can still enjoy touring other doors by visiting Dan’s site https://nofacilities.com/2021/12/02/random-duluth-doors/
Improve yourself to have a kinder heart. Do what you can to be caring and considerate to make others happy.

A home says a lot about the people who live in them. This home is filled with love and joy of many many bouncing whippets and borzoi …
I am very blessed to have these two human beings in my life and consider them family. I’m so proud of what they do and the love they give to each and every little heart that comes into their lives.
Till soon. This is the month to shine with holiday decorations, but the love that we shine out to the world with our smiles/friendships is priceless.

In PL, the 1st of every month is celebrated as Day of Peace. Through this ceremony we pray for World Peace and dedicate ourselves to live as peaceful beings in our own worlds which includes our home, school, work and community. (PL members guide)
Guess who got out into the woods today… It was on the cool side, the water had a layer of ice on the top, snow lay in some areas, the chill was present. No matter, I loved it.
Do things joyfully. Instead of taking it easy. Enthusiastically engage with what’s in front of you. You’ll enjoy it more.
