Mountain trip over
Time to return to the heat
Wave hopefully broke
What change, big or small, would you like your blog to make in the world?
Rest.
If someone stumbled onto this blog and stopped to read or watch, de-stress, and relax. That to me would be the thing I would want this blog to do. People don’t slow down enough. We need to. Time moves too fast.
A thick morning fog
Crawling across the mountain
Covering the trees

I wrote this Haiku yesterday afternoon and didn’t have time to post it. Seemed a shame not to let it have its time to shine or rust, depending on what you think of it. Here it is.
Under a shade tree
Basking in the cool shadow
Escaping the sun
Green bushes rustling
A small white and furry skunk
Hunting for some food

I saw a white skunk last night. It had a black streak across its back. Amazing what you see on a mountain vacation. Anybody ever seen one or have you seen just the normal version?
Silent house, the world asleep
Chilly breeze through the open window
Trees limbs rustle, green leaves rattle
I journey back from vacation today
Back to the heat, humidity, summertime
But for a week I was here
Enjoying the cooling kiss of the mountaintop

I’m kind of an old dude, so this song has been running through my head for the last couple of days. It just pops in there when I look out at the hills in the distance.
A clear mountain stream
Crooked as it twists and winds
Through fall’s bright colors
