on the heels of a restless night… reading obama’s book in the wee hours trying to quiet the hebejeebies… i found myself in a pretty good state of mind.  opportunities arise.  they linger a little… and then move on, perhaps not what i thought they were.  keeping in mind the tale of the old farmer [...]

summer is not yet half over, though the weather indicates fall on it’s way. there’s an abundance of rain. wind. thunder. green. we’re working hard to embrace the uncertainty. no longer a matter of months. it now sits patiently, pleasantly, on our doorstep. we greet it warmly, but are not [...]
