RE: Fire on the ocean shore
That sounds like a real getaway! Beautiful views. I'd like to get a sauna. It would be so nice during our cold winters here.

RE: Daylesford Weekend: Smelly Shopping, Market, Good Food, Camping
That sounds like a lovely day! It's fun to peruse local shops like that. Sometimes it's easy to get caught up in the story/vibe of the business and walk out with more than you bargained for. : ) The spice

RE: How Much Are 1.8 Million Reads Worth?
I used to really enjoy Quora until I understood how they take advantage of content creators but I guess that's almost every platform (except Hive) that "pays" for content. Hive, definitely, has

I hope things pick up soon! You're welcome. It wasn't much but hopefully it's helpful.

RE: A Hundred Small Weathers
Thank you Nancy! I always enjoy reading about how others interpret my poetry. So many times it makes me see the poem in a whole different light!

RE: The ageing process.
I'm sorry to hear you feel it won't be long but I'm glad you don't fear it. Our mortality is so far from our minds when we're young. It wasn't until middle age that it even crossed my mind. At 55 I just

RE: Midsummer Reflections
50 (122F) degrees is very hot! I can only think of a few times in my life I've felt anywhere close to that kind of heat—both times have been in Minnesota.

RE: Midsummer Reflections
That's so true about things we criticize! I didn't know that about crows. Nature sure does have lots to teach us. It's always amazing the extent to which survival is coded into the genes of animals. Humans

RE: Midsummer Reflections
Very nice! Island life seems like it would be slower and more peaceful. I’d like to move even further out eventually and maybe get some acreage somewhere. It’s always been my dream to build an off-the-grid

RE: The ageing process.
There's so much truth in this. In middle-age we witness our parents and older relatives in decline and that prepares us (or at least teaches us what to expect) for experiencing the decline ourselves. My

RE: Talk about a gut punch!
I'm sorry. This entire process is so sobering. Our jaws hit the floor when we started getting quotes for the work we had done to our home. The cost of labor, at least here in MN, is probably 3x what it

Thank you! For me, this was about—loss (of projects, goals, relatives, friends), disorientation/stagnation, and then moving on/rediscovery.

RE: Bayfield Wisconsin: Gateway to the Apostle Islands
I love little touristy towns like this! My wife has been to Bayfield many times but I've never visited. We're going to have to make it over there sometime. The pictures remind of of Grand Marais, MN on

I'm so sorry to hear that. I feared something serious had happened. Thanks so much for responding. She'll be in my prayers.

RE: How Much Are 1.8 Million Reads Worth?
After I saw that ridiculously low amount I knew I had to make a post about it. Some people are making serious money on X now but it's a small few. I've seen some who make tens of thousands of dollars a

RE: The Bag, The Boots, The Whole Damn Philosophy
Thank you! The fast-fashion industry has been horrible for the environment! A lot of the cheaper clothes sold today are only good for 5-10 wears before they fall apart and then they go right into the landfill.

RE: Too Much Past and Not Enough Presence
That would be a miserable existence to be a chronic complainer! It sounds like Venezuela was like America. The bars and restaurants used to be saturated in smoke. I remember how bad my clothes used to
