exploring nature’s infinite connections
An interesting thought popped into my head during this day walking in the woods and approaching this area. The woods around my home are pretty much a jumbled mess. Vines, scrubby bushes and snags, thorny plants everywhere. Long time readers may recall me mentioning...
I shall be snowy, no, wait, I will be warm, no, maybe some ice, no, bitter cold, no, how about some rain? We have been on a roller coaster ride in our temperatures here for months. This is turning into the craziest winter in my recent memory. I have only had to...
I wanted to wish everyone a Happy Winter Solstice, at least for those of you in the Northern Hemisphere. For the shortest day of the year, I have started by getting up late, and perhaps I will go to bed early. The psychology of shorter days and less sunlight will be...

I am always a bit torn on visiting this particular spot on Lake St. Clair - the lake formed between two of our Great Lakes - Huron and Erie. I love the ice that piles up here, but it is blastin' cold every time I go out there in the winter. Yeah, yeah I know -...
