Rail Walker
Saturdays should be spent outside. At least for a few hours, especially if it’s 60 degrees in February, even if it’s windy and doesn’t feel like 60. Thursday’s snow made the walking trail a muddy bog, so Emotikin decided to walk the rails. Bold, dangerous, carefree, adventurous. That’s what this Saturday called for.
Under the bridge is a river...
Call it the culvert, call it a river, call it a place to jump rock to rock, soak up the sun on a still-cold stone, daring the icy water to swirl too close.
Testing the Nesting for Mr. Mallard
Sea grass, beach grass, duck nest? Perching here is warmer than the rocks.
Thought Clouds
If Emotikin thoughts were louder than words, what blue-sky-sunny optimism might be heard on this mid-winter concrete beach?
Ice Climber
Avalanche danger? Solid slush. South face slope still knows what season we’re in. Wishing for spikes on my feet, skis, or a sled.
Fossils in the concrete
What were they thinking, this crew who placed the stones in the concrete berm? Did they notice the fossils in this rock and laugh, wondering whether anyone would ever notice this fine art installation?
Cross-section...We all have tree rings
What layers of life do we each have inside, secret saplings we grew beyond, now seasoned and strong?
Daredevil
Balance in the wind, poised on a pier, invisible cape, courageous.
Time Traveler
What if when you landed, there was a sign saying what year you’d arrived?
Today's play brought to you by the Letter S
Saturday. Sunny. Signs. Sings. Silly. Soul-happy. Seriously.
Life creates captions.
I’M GLAD YOU FOLLOWED jOMAMA’S EDICT TO GO OUTSIDE TO PLAY!
Love this. So creative. So much fun.
