The Joy of Life!

Life. A gift. An amazing opportunity to be alive, enjoying the beauty and circumstances that flow from all that surrounds. A chance to serve. laugh. give. receive. impact. Living in the present. Trusting and being filled with peace. TRUE peace from within. Past events and memories not to consume. Future and forbearing left to be discovered as they melt into the present. Thankfulness for this moment.

Wild Dandelions in November

Dandelions...I know they are a weed, but such a bright, happy yellow color that fills gaps in the green grass. Its spring here and with that comes the dandelions, working hard to make their apperance and to keep it. The yellow mixed with the blue sky, shiny white caps of snow and green ground is quite breath taking. Tall snow capped mountains hugging the town on three sides with the bay on the fourth. I am still adjusting to just soaking in the scenery. I am here. What a blessing.

People on the street...mostly hikers mixed in with the townspeople.

Adventures are just waiting to happen and I´ve already had so many!!!

I am really here...so far from home...at the tip of the land. In a few hours I´ll be leaving...floating on the water in a vessel headed for that beautiful silent contient.

Finally A n t a r c t i c a

    Does it remind you at all of any part of the Rocky Mountains? Like, hikers from all over the world, like mountains, water, snow capped, breath taking scenery?

    Guess Who?
