Memorial Day Weekend

Changing in Place cover

It’s Memorial Day weekend, the unofficial beginning of summer. Not quite a typical one: no parades or picnics. We are still in place.

Here is a tribute to how nature changes in place, once again in areas that are within two miles of where I am sheltering. And a tribute on this Memorial Day weekend to the memory of those we’ve lost so far and will continue to lose to our current pandemic.

Happy Mother’s Day to all the mothers and those who had mothers 🙂
I hope that these  signs of perseverance in nature remind us that we will make it through this!
