The Long View

"In the presence of eternity, the mountains are as transient as the clouds."
Robert Green Ingersoll 1833-1899

It’s all a matter of perspective.

Hope

“Hope springs eternal in the human breast”
Alexander Pope 1688–1744

But sometimes hope gets knocked a little sideways.

Not Deep

"I must be a mermaid, Rango. I have no fear of depths and a great fear of shallow living."
Anaïs Nin 1903-1977

 I found this fearful mermaid in Las Vegas where shallow living is an art form.

The Lake District

I travelled among unknown men
In lands beyond the sea;
Nor, England! did I know till then
What love I bore to thee.
William Wordsworth 1770-1850

William Wordsworth loved the natural world and especially the Lake District of England where he was born. I can see why. There is beauty around every bend in the road.

Maybe Molokai

“All journeys have secret destinations of which the traveler is unaware.”
Martin Buber 1878-1965

I’m off to Hawaii again, aiming for Molokai this time. I’m putting my blog on auto pilot until I return. There will be reruns of old posts that were originally shown in black and white. Now you will be able to see them in full color! A linked date of the original post will be below each picture. Joy be with you all.

Bugged

“I feel like I'm diagonally parked in a parallel universe.”
Bumper Sticker

It helps a little if you drive a VW. But I don’t.
