...for Now

THE WATCHERS
Original Watercolor by artist Nancy Phelps of Lompoc, California
...."On this sacred night I will tell of many great things, of battles won, of seasons past, of sadness and joy, of beauty in the ways of our People.".......from The Grandfather Legacy
Nancy's original watercolor was translated into counted cross stitch....the framed finished project is one of my most treasured pieces; I really enjoyed stitching this one.......

I SAW A CROW THIS MORNING.....
..............as I went out to garden in between showers....He saw me first! and he watched..and when I looked his way he began calling out the first of his greetings....I returned his morning cheer....A good way to start the day.....turns out it's a very good way to start any day!
Did you know that according to Native American Crow Mythology that "many people are under the mistaken impression the crows were viewed as harbingers of death in Native American cultures, but in fact, that is not true at all. We do not know of any Native American tribes which crows were seen as omens of death. Indeed, just the opposite, seeing a crow was (and still is!) considered good luck by many tribes." resource: Native American Encyclopedia

FALL IS IN THE AIR!!
....an October Sunday morning.......about 9:30
It's so beautiful today! and warm too! ...a Fall day kind of warm.... The little park is the kayakers launching site into the River......The old trestle bridge was once a railway for the logging industry in the Canyon...you can see it's now a peaceful walkway and a good place to stop and daydream........... : )
