Almanac
As a young man I ran into a book, "A Sand Country Almanac" which was just the lyrical description of a man's observations of a chunk of the natural world. I've also enjoyed "A Desert Solitude" and Sid Marty's "Men for the Mountains" about his days working for Canadian Park Service.
Reading these books gave me a deeper appreciation of the natural world.
I am finding that writing these pages helps me to appreciate nature
and also puts my frustrations and triumphs both into perspective.
This is my soapbox, where I comment on the seasons, my projects, my trees. It's where I try to share some of the magic in my world. Enjoy.
As you can see, I work on this fitfully. Maybe this year will be different. Right. Like New Year's resolutions.
Once again, welcome to my world!
