The final week of sharing shots of nature that I've discovered this past month. And just in time to focus on Camp NaNo. What is Camp NaNo, you ask? Tune in next week and I'll share what it is and what I'm working on. But first, one more week of nature. Sit back and breathe… Continue reading Nature’s Brilliance, Week 4

Nature’s Brilliance, Week 3
Another week of nature's splendor that speaks far louder than words. Sunrise, sunset... This lady was hard at work laying her eggs. And here's the critter that taunts my dogs every day. He's taunting me here, too, daring me to come and get him. Challenge accepted. The most beautiful gift of nature is that it… Continue reading Nature’s Brilliance, Week 3
Nature’s Brilliance, Week 2
Sometimes there are just no words to adequately describe the beauty. Adopt the pace of nature: her secret is patience. ― Ralph Waldo Emerson
Brilliant Bursts of Nature
I explored the beautiful gems of summer hidden in nature this past week. The next four weeks I'll be sharing the brilliant bursts of nature I discovered. I hope you enjoy! Munsinger Gardens in St. Cloud, Minnesota. An exquisite fountain, again at Munsinger Gardens. All that's left of my grandparents' farm where I spent nearly… Continue reading Brilliant Bursts of Nature
Spring has Fully Sprung
I just love the Crab Apple trees in the spring. The purple, pink, and white flowers aren't only breathtakingly beautiful, but their sweet, tangy aroma is candy for the nose. (The legal kind!) As I was running this past weekend, I was in awe of how the landscape is painted and planted so perfectly, so… Continue reading Spring has Fully Sprung
Unique Boulder
We had family visiting from Minnesota this past week. With all the snow Minnesota has had this spring, my husband and I thought we would treat them to new sites. And the sites don't get any better--or crazier--than Boulder, Colorado. In fact, Boulder is like it's own little state. Comments like "Only in Boulder," "That's… Continue reading Unique Boulder
Nature at its Finest
We spent some time at our place in Estes Park, Colorado this past weekend. In fact, we're actually there now as I write this post. Before me is the amazing mountainside on the other side of the river right outside my sliding glass door, a cup of coffee at my side, one of my fur… Continue reading Nature at its Finest
Revisions, Revisions, Revisions
This past weekend I went on a short, but perfect, writing retreat at our cabin in beautiful Estes Park, CO. The typical visitors there are 4-legged. This particular weekend, however, they must have known I couldn't have any distractions. I was on a deadline. There wasn't a single 4-legged animal in sight. Not. One. In… Continue reading Revisions, Revisions, Revisions
Winter’s Beauty
Never before have I had spring fever so badly and so early. Probably because, for the most part, we've had an incredibly mild winter here in Colorado this year. So when the snow and cold hit these past couple of weeks, it reminded me we're still in the middle of winter. But what's the best… Continue reading Winter’s Beauty
The Present of Presence
The best lessons come from the most difficult trials, the most significant growth from when we’re at our lowest. When we’re filled with pride, the inevitable fall is hard. And so painful. But with humility comes peace. Yet It never ceases to amaze me that like the monster it is, pride rears its ugly head time and… Continue reading The Present of Presence
