This is my place for writing and reflecting on life here in the mountains. Close to the sky, close to my children and family and most certainly feeling the closeness of God my Savior.

Happy Mother's day
sometime after dark, I am chopping these down and taking them to my mom! She deserves the very best and freshest bouquet.
Tulips??? Boy oh boy did your mom raise you right David. Tulips are gorgeous and so much better than red roses in my book. Bravo to you and her both. May she have an incredible Mother's Day. Michele says hi by the way.
i can recall a few mothers days coming around when i was flat broke (back in the day) and i would sneak roses out of my mothers very own garden and give them to her. she always knew, but never complained.
Living life, higher at 7000 feet elevation. Where the smell of pines, a distinct nip in the air, the sunset and sunrise displays of color and light fill your soul and set your spirit soaring. From high atop the mountains, nowhere near the city, I think, I write, I try to make you laugh. It is just me, my oxygen deprived brain and my bird and squirrel friends.
I am a lover of God, and I am a lover of life. My three wonderful children help me be a better man, and I consider fatherhood my most important role. These kids have made my life meaningful and filled with beauty. Nothing compares to them or gets between us.
My mom lived 91 years and as youngest I was privileged to make sure she was comfortable and safe in her own home, was never alone, had plenty of friends and family coming around. She knew, before she passed away, how much we kids appreciated all she did for us over the many years.
I am the youngest of five. I have ADD and it makes me fun, or irritating, depending on who you ask.
Most of all I am real, so this blog has fun aspects and then serious writings, too. You get both, for one click of the mouse.
