TWO CELEBRATIONS: Of colors. Of friends. Yesterday Kathy and I decided to find some close-to-home autumn colors. So off to the St. John’s woods we traipsed. Through the old stone arch and down the trail. And were richly rewarded. Every few steps produced an ‘Ooh’ or an ‘Ah’ or a ‘Look at that!’ A celebration of the sights and sounds and smells and simple beauty of a forest. My idea of heaven.

Today we also celebrate friendship, as this humble page of thoughts, reflections, and images has now gone over 11,000 followers! How lovely. Thanks for following. For commenting. For being a community of like-minded and generous souls. For sitting around this little community campfire with me. And for sharing the journey. It is fun to share it with you. Thank you!!!
