Memorial Day Weekend

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.
Thanks again to the Middletown Rec office for sponsoring this video.

Mother’s Day and Perseverance

Here’s a little piece on perseverance in nature that I hope helps us trust that we will all get through this. All photos were taken within 2 miles of where I am sheltering. Thanks to the Middletown Recreation office for sponsoring this video.
