Tuatha Dé

Stopped to drink in a little rock and sand in Oregon and let the pup be a pup seaside. Serene chaos here.

Last image of my week. When I've been involved in all the petty one-act dramas I can stand, and the dialogue is relentlessly about things, things, things and it reinforces only shallow and inartistically brutal versions of life, I just sit down and write my own script with an alternative ending that always closes out with this: The poorest of the poor can add this to their investment portfolio, and no one can gaslight them out of it. #itcantbuyyoulove #gaslightingtheprince #nooneownsthesun (at Matanzas Beach, Illinois) https://www.instagram.com/p/B0rxO_yAvyO/?igshid=yaexog7p59de

Finally, seeing some beach. #watersrecede #waterfalls (at Matanzas Lake) https://www.instagram.com/p/B0GOzKMFyzo/?igshid=1gn87lvbpttck

Nice way to start a Thursday. Any day, really. #itshowyouseeit #freshstart #evilwontwin https://www.instagram.com/p/B0DtPIyg9YC/?igshid=fdwq3pxyakba

Nice colors and mist this morning. Couldn't do the big moon justice. #moonrun #fogrun #morningsun https://www.instagram.com/p/B0BJZOIAfZv/?igshid=sxnrfeoan4su

Spotted texting and driving a white Colorado: apricot Pompoo. #dogdriver #notexting https://www.instagram.com/p/Bz25ZKxgC_F/?igshid=1uagxm8wne2be

Morning encounters: One of the offspring of the doe I posted decaying a couple of weeks ago. Apparently, she'd been hit crossing the road for grain and was curled up in the ditch in shock. Even Riley seemed sympathetic and wouldn't go near. The rest of these are standard morning fare (though encouraging). #naturalselection #sunrise5k #Monday (at Matanzas Beach, Illinois) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bzp1OfdlwIQ/?igshid=s7wbzfjmqehw

Finally got the other little boat in the water. Very hairy first outing. Short and terrifying!! But seemed very fast. #trysomethingnew (at Matanzas Lake) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bzlm1AOph5O/?igshid=bulom71hgbqi

Looking east along the Sangamon River this morning. #breakfast #lookandsee https://www.instagram.com/p/BzktwylACQH/?igshid=1mz7p1sadsw4j

Aunt Rena and Uncle Bob swooping in for breakfast with KT in Providence. Wish I was there! #breakfast #travel #aunts (at Providence, Rhode Island) https://www.instagram.com/p/BziYIrwJno9/?igshid=86baw97t6ndx

The wind is starting to blow. #thunderheads (at Matanzas Lake) https://www.instagram.com/p/BzeeYE7lHle/?igshid=179xlddxhaveo

Nice morning to run toward the sun. Running with unbearable lightness. #light #lightness #sunrise5k #5k (at Matanzas Beach, Illinois) https://www.instagram.com/p/BzafOXSlU78/?igshid=19658e453vpmz

Weekend draws to a close. Got on the water with the mini-fish a few times. Ended up next to JJ’s SS Minnow. Riley took his first swim. Still waiting to fly the Scow (Not much longer, though). New hats all around, even for the first mate. Did some fine carpentry. Cooked some decent meals. Sweated it all out. #matanzas #summer #weekend #fitness (at Matanzas Beach, Illinois) https://www.instagram.com/p/BzWX_4SAWyI/?igshid=13s66d6maz5lx
