Short sweet February

Posted on Feb 24, 2023Mar 3, 2023 by Bernie

Sundaystills “Connecting”

Posted on Jan 6, 2023Jan 7, 2023 by Bernie

It felt like mumbo jumbo…the year end post and a couple of blog challenges and the word of the year. Nothing flowing at all.

And then, what was right in front of my face appeared plainly while I was out for a snow shoe on a bright sunny day.
