Now that the crowds and smoke have lifted, it’s prime time for hiking in the mountains. The larches are just beginning to fade from green to chartreuse as they journey to their golden glory. The mountain blueberries are beginning to rust from green to deep red, and the berries are at their sweet peak. Lots […]

August 2022 Brown skin fading Early nights are waiting. Verdant luster fades to muted green Fresh picked blueberries top the ice cream. One last chapter to finish the book One more summit to get take a look One more dip to cool off the day One last moment for frolic and play. Schedules resume Sunflowers […]

In 1972 a group of wide eyed, like-minded young couples ditched their southern California lives for the freedom and adventure of starting their own intentional community founded on Christian values in the remote wilderness of the Twisp River on an old homestead up Poorman Creek. All the founding families, now spanning three generations, many who […]

The heat is on, and despite the many years of triple-digit summers and smoke, we have yet to invest in air conditioning for our home. We have therefore developed some survival skills. We manage in part because our home was designed to withstand the heat. It has next to zero solar gain, is a single-story […]

Saturday, a smoky haze rolled in. No one seemed to know where it came from. Alaska fires, fires at the boarder of Oregon and Washington, an apparent fire on U.S. Highway 97A between Chelan and Entiat?

I started my Independence Day with a jog and a podcast. This is not a significant way to start any particular day, nor was there anything of particular significance in this ritual. Ritual, however intimate or shared, grand or minute, can be like glue, holding individuals, groups and communities together. Daily rituals often remind us […]
