ice bergs


big chunks of ice are floating by really fast this morning as the snow melting fills the river. the party has begun......there has been this ice extending out from the shore all along the river. driving across the ford on that much ice???? not feeling it to be something i want to do. so seeing these big chunks floating by, some of them 15' x 10' is pretty wonderful....i will drive out tomorrow : )

eagle

I saw the eagle again just now. WOW. He flew upstream then circled around and flew right back at me, maybe to get a good look at this one who disturbed his lunch again! Its been several weeks since I saw him the first time, is he living here? I remember now what it is I’m doing living here in this remote place where I’ve been snowed in since Sunday, and its going to rain and, who knows when I’ll be able to get back across the river….that nagging ego voice is silenced! I surrender with gratitude to the beauty of this life.

the river is coooooold

flowing downstream...big chunks of ice are churning over and over.... and frozen edges go out from the banks 10 feet into the river. wow. will this river freeze over tonight when it gets down below 10 degrees? these cold winters are amazing and new to me.
