Nature's Music


The tall trees outside of my
kitchen window are bending.
The branches are blowing.
The shhh noise of
thousands of leaves
rubbing together in the wind.
The sweet music
of October.
Enjoy its end.
Love,
Linda

The Eagle Has Landed


Right in our back yard!
There are many reports
of Bald Eagle sightings
in northwestern NJ.
Here's a fine shot
taken by a co-worker
on his way into work yesterday.
What a moment!
Rumor has it the Eagle
was feasting
on a big fat
Canadian Goose!

Berries and Random Acts of Kindness


So, you might be wondering.
What do wild berries
and random acts of kindness
have to do with one another?
Absoutely nothing!
Except... they're together today.
I know of a
recent act of kindness.
A poor old lady soul
was selling newspapers
on a street corner
in the dark.
in the rain.
A certain someone
who never buys
the newspaper
bought her newspaper.
Her 50 cent newspaper.
Gave her ten bucks.
Said "keep the change".
A random act.
Of kindness.
Have one to share?

My Neck of the Woods


Is ablaze with color!
Orange, gold, yellow,
and splashes of red.
Tunnels of color.
Everywhere is color.
Thank You, Mother Nature!

On The Advice of my Daughter


So, I admit it.
I don't buy Starbucks coffee.
I don't like Starbucks coffee.
It's way too strong.
It's way too dark.
It's way too expensive.
It's almost intimidating.
However....
My 1st born keeps raving.
Pumpkin Latte.
So yesterday, my curiosity
(and hunger) got the best of me.
After some mindful deliberation,
I ordered one.
Starbucks Pumpkin Latte. Short.
For goodness sakes,
do yourself a favor.
Go to Starbucks!!
Order one up.
And keep an eye out for me,
chances are,
I'm in line next to you!
Thanks, cute!

Who's That Handsome Guy?


See this happy little family?
Everyone is smiling,
'cuz today is the Birthday
of the kid in the middle!
He's sugar, he's spice
and he's everything nice!
This is my Brother-In-Law
Brad!
This shot was from a few years back
when we were together
for a bit of family celebrating!
He calls North Carolina home these days,
He loves his girls, his gardens,
his long lost friend Zorrie, and as
another motorcycle officiando,
he really digs Indian Motorcylces!
The promise up here Brad is
for a beautiful, sunny October 20th,
I hope you can hit the highway,
and open the throttle to what becomes
a fabulous year!
Happy, Happy Birthday!

Most days
I have a nice, short, easy
commute to work.
It doesn't look like this.
To all of the commuters out there...
Patience is a virtue!

Attention Buyers!


This is a shot of a beautiul kitchen.
I entertained realtors there
at a dessert buffet last week.
I was hoping they'd bring me a buyer!
So far, no luck.
The house is located in Warren County, NJ.
Give me a shout if you know of anyone
looking to move!
Have a great week,
Happy Columbus Day!
Love,
Linda

Snuck out yesterday.
This is where I stopped.
2 wheels, swollen heart.

Peace and quiet.
Blue and yellow.
Black and white.

The Great Soul


"When I despair, I remember
that all through history
the ways of truth and love
have always won.
There have been tyrants,
and murderers,
and for a time
they seem invincible,
but in the end
they always fail.
Think of it-always."

Today is the birthday
of Mahatma Gandhi
He was assassinated in 1948

Live a day in love and peace
