One of the guys that would sometimes be on staff with us on river trips was such an amazing fellow. Among his many talents was whittling. He would cut a small green branch and make a whistle. It only worked fresh. Once it dried out, it wouldn't work anymore.
hello elisabeth - when i read the haiku of the japanese poets from hundreds of years ago i see mentions of the snow and the imaginings i have are rich!!! have a lovely day. steven
hey aleks! there's worlds of music in the dance of the imagination. worlds that transport us away and inside this world. i wish you a lovely peaceful easter. steven
A straw hut in winter - a snow covered straw hut - is an amazing sight.
ReplyDeleteTo me it's almost a contradiction in terms. Huts belong to warm climates, not in the snow.
