I’ll get to my “stuff” in a minute. My deceased son’s birthday was New Year’s Eve. I was sitting out in the park next to my Airbnb early that morning and a lone coyote walked by. He kept stopping and … Continue reading

Hey everyone, Merry Christmas! Since I last posted, I went on a solo hike that led to a reservoir. It was partially frozen over. I tried to make it a mindful hike, paying attention to small details in nature. Saturday … Continue reading
Before we get to the Christmas gifts, Saturday evening I went to a singles dinner with about 35 people. The white elephant exchange was fun. I’m glad I picked a bottle of wine. As a nomad, the less ‘stuff’ you … Continue reading

Wednesday I went for a 2.5 mi solo hike at White Ranch. I arrived early and was the only hiker until close to the end. It was so peaceful. I’m not sure I would have been as peaceful if I … Continue reading
