End of a Summer's Day
I always wonder at clouds: light, frizzy wisps of cotton wool; white, fluffy heaps of celestial whipped cream; grey, menacing masses of soaking wet pillows. They come in so many shapes, textures, colours, in constant change throughout the hours, the days, the months, the seasons, the years.

A Meditation Guide for a Walk By the Sea
Hello. Thank you for letting me join you on your walk by the sea. Imagination is a beautiful thing. I feel like for me, whenever I feel calm, when I have space in my mind to think, when my worries have been pushed aside - that is when my imagination is really able to blossom. I hope that today, on this walk by the sea, that your imagination will also bloom.

Finding beauty
There has been a feeling of emptiness to the whole thing. The start of 'lockdown' was an exciting and scary time. The fear was easy to identify - viruses are dangerous and invisible - not a great combination for any anxious soul. Choosing to use a word like 'lockdown' brought a movie type of energy to the mind. Imagining men in black suits (with unnecessary sunglasses) escorting particularly important people into special bunkers was extremely easy. You could almost hear a mental alarm blaring. It was a new type of risk for many of us - a universal one that seemed like it would affect us all. Walking empty streets in deserted towns for essential supplies gave the impression that something big was happening. This one was going to be different. The financial crisis of 2008 was the last time a potential game-changer came along; feeling as though it could change everything for everyone. However, the current situation did not take long before the general mood was more like bored children during a rainy summer holiday. Routines stopped or altered and Zoom became a thing. The internet allowed us to continue to be connected but it could often be difficult to feel connected. Having another person nearby is a sensory experience (whether or not we are always conscious of this). Most of us will be most keenly aware that we can see and hear other people. Comfort can be gained from the touch and scent of another person just as much if not so obviously. Taste can be included in the sharing of a drink or meal (and other avenues not covered in this article!).

Where The Eagles Bathe
A pair of bald eagles teach us about savoring lifes most precious moments. Owning a dog is one of the surest ways to get in your daily exercise. Particularly when you live in a small space like a Studio or RV as we do. Our Staffordshire Terrier, Athena, takes us for a daily constitutional religiously and without fail. In her opinion, if she were to miss her walk, she’d surely expire and not make the next day. There is a wonderful but secluded beach just walking distance from the RV park where we stay and it’s perfect for allowing Athena to run freely.

Thunder And Lighting
THUNDER AND LIGHTENING A loud boom, a big flash, trees on fire, or just slashed, hole in the roof, just from one branch. Pouring in a blinding flash rumbling to a holt before another jolt. Kids screaming now frightened by the sounds. Screaming Mommy help now, ducking for covers.

SUNSET
Today I watched the sunset, my favorite luxury—In any location and in every home, I live for that sinking sun, that color pallet on the horizon. My small moments of watching the sun set into the horizon, or to the back of mountains, into the ocean or simply watching the light change colors on the trees, each resembles my idea of intangible gold.

Lizard Supermodel
On the bright side of things, social distancing started in the early spring, where sitting outside could be enjoyed with a cool breeze and no pesky Southern gnats. Those of us who reside in Southeast Georgia and Northeast Florida know what I’m talking about.
