A Calamity or an Opportunity?

Elk moccasins slipped over the rise and down into the bowl that sheltered the returned captive’s ruined … Continue reading

“Perhaps is the promise of tomorrow…”
Saturday, 29 October 1763: Five blue jays hollered on the ridge. A silent, chipping sparrow bobbed up and down on a dainty sprig. The ruckus intensified. Blue-feathered blurs darted about like bees hovering around fresh-bloomed posies. The calm, late-afternoon air … Continue reading
