things i did

…the gift of a ripe peach, goldenrod bouquets.

…this weekend with Sylvie.

…little snippets that don’t cost a thing

….swimming with friends.

….finally walk to grigg’s preserve in the deep dusk. Follow the dark railroad tracks home with bats gliding in the sliver of sky overhead and the fireflies pulsing. Be rescued in the dark, then fall asleep to heat lighting over deer isle.

…reminded by small moments to feel peace even when life feels like a race.

…this whole weekend.

…peeeep PEEP peeeeep peeepers

…watch the wind

it’s life, just enjoy it

….discover the serviceberry.

…cherish my dog. She is a present, every day. I adore her.

…craft maypoles with friends, my crow’s treasure nest of ribbons, and found things.

…savor the trees.

…early morning spring awakening.

…the money shot, but it’s totally free.

It turns out that if you sneak into a campsite at nearly midnight, and creep to the parking lot at 730, and time everything juuuuust right….you can bypass both camping and day use fees. I love the state parks, but sometime you just got to let a poor girl go for a hike.
