It's here - the long anticipated end of the world year. While I am concerned for our ever increasing numbers of sheer nutters, I'm sure it's not the end of the world. If it was - I'd say it's been a damned great ride. Since it's not - it's a damned great ride!
Where's my palamino?

These days it's all about the Photopo, but I also write fiction. You can find some of my short stories here.
One photo every day (well, almost every day) taken to a different dimension, funny, poignant, sad, hopefully clever... Observations about living in this world and pondering the possibilities of others. To view the archive, click here.
If I were an island, I should lay in wait until a kind bird came and sat upon me to keep me company. And if a shipwrecked sailor drifted upon my shore I would be in heaven.
Do you feel like an island? Or like a sailor? Maybe it depends on the day or the time of day or the island or the sailor. I'd rather be a bird. Would I rather sit on the island? Or on the sailor sitting on the island? And what of the water? Surely the water would want to have a say in all of this. The water would probably insist.
Appease the water, bird, island and sailor, dazzle it with trinkets and pretty words.

Agree wholeheartedly! I’m a treeaholic!

And it’s not even a recognised disorder! You can indulge in your treeaholicism as much and for as long as you can! Yay!!!!!!!!!!!!!
(Of course, there is undoubtedly someone in a white coat somewhere drafting the disorder and its symptoms, and will end up trying to talk you out of it – with some dire consequnce if you don’t – so revel while you can!!!)

I am living proof, Titi! I hug my tree each morning of my walks. The moss is worn off my Big Leaf Maple’s trunk from where I hug her. Plus look at Buddha…he meditated regularly under his tree.

As long as it’s just the moss… I just love being surrounded by trees all day every day. It is a wonderful sense of security somehow…
I wish I could meditate under a tree, but these days it’s still not properly summer out there – a little too cold and a little too wet…

I enjoy the patterns made by the tree’s shadows and the shelter of a tree. Hugged one once just to say I had
Lovely lighting to enhance the shape of this one.

Oh Happy – you have tree hugging so deep in your essence, you don’t need to physically hug a tree – but glad to hear you did just for the experience;-)
I’m not much of a hugger, more of a stroker and leaner and appreciater… The one outside my window seems to want to come inside on days warm enough to have the window open…
This one is in downtown Auckland… just walking by and looking up during a festival…

You know how I do love my trees. All shapes, sizes, colors, smells.
