Until Next Year!

Sorry to see you go JULY... see you next year! Thank you for the memories, these past several weeks have been like the 31 flavors of life; taking the good, sad, bad, ugly and amazing and coming out alright.. the long sometimes lonesome road of life unravels like a spindle of ribbon, the surface is smooth as it is scorching hot with rough patches along the way. Life rolls on from bumpy road to smooth as silk. The summer would never be complete without you and your well lit days and lingering nights, so Thank You for coming around. I always look forward to seeing you and can hardly wait to find out how you unfold. Thanks again!
*Remember those flicker rings from the 60s, when you moved them one way you saw one image and if you turned the ring a different way, you would see somehing else. I thought the holy grail of flicker rings was the one shown here.

You Give Me Fever

*Summer, there you are!

We've been wondering if you were going to show-up. Looks and feels like you have arrived even tho' you are not here officially, until the Summer Solstice occurs which is around June 21st., then your hot ways officially end, during the Fall Equinox on September 23rd.

  

*It is all so perfectly plotted out,  the balance between the light of day and night. Planet Earth shimmy's and shakes, vibrates, miraculously as her massive ball of humanity, life, death, disappointment and delight... orbits around the Sun. To what degree her axis tilts determines how long the dance of the cosmos lasts. The seasonal changes are phenomenal, a cosmic wonder, predictable yet super natural in nature.

*The change of seasons effects all of life, the climate, the environment so precious, powerful, fragile and unforgiving. All in due time the cycles shift, the earth moans and groans about it aches and pains as it takes a beating from it's inhabitants.  The wealth of resources, natural wonders and beauty of the world grows thin and weary as it struggles to keep the balance between nature, beauty, humankind, the negative and positive possibilities surrounding the heart and soul of a planet dying, struggling to survive, to maintain life, to be a good provider and place called home sweet home.
