Always here and Always gone

Treska and I  celebrated the first day of fall yesterday with a hike in the mountains after work. It was an “on-call” hike, within “range” and easy to get back from, should a baby choose to make a...

Celebrating a Birth

It’s been raining here for a few days. On and off. Rain is magical in the desert, we crave it and love it with all our heart when it arrives. Here I am, on my couch, a little on the chillier side...

  I am sitting on my couch, it’s not quite too late, but I am tired. A good kind of tired, a physical tired. Kaya and I skied all day with friends –  teen friends, mom friends and another as well….....

Living close to the Mountain

  We’ve been spending every moment we can outside. It has left some of our indoor projects a bit neglected, though. This April has been, perhaps, the best April I have ever experienced here in this...

Take me to the River!

My day started with my close friend spontaneously coming over with her baby girl. (Now 3!!) And this friend isn’t superbly spontaneous. Well, she is – I stop by her house at the drop of a hat often –...

Sweating

I’ve been reeling a bit today from the impact of a sweat lodge I did last night with Kaya. I went feeling like a helpful participant and curious. I’ve done only two in my life, so was quite nervous. I...
