I used the Google Arts and Culture app to morph this photo into Keith Haring’s style.
Day 43
I am weary of Covid’s trash. I am weary of Covid in general. However, I am adapting to my new Covid Common Era life and it’s not so bad.
Day 44
Here I am in Paradise during the CCE and this holly plant thinks it is fall. Or maybe it is in harmony with the newly sick since Alabama has opened up again.
Day 45
The view out my bedroom window.
Day 46
I’m not sure what this plant is doing. Every time I bury its roots it climbs back out.
Day 47Day 48 The neighbors Day 49 The big heron wasn’t around. This was his fill-in.

While I’ve been enjoying my ice-o-lation in Paradise I have been into photographing bottle caps.
The last one in this series. I drank this Shiner Bock and posed the cap on an old wooden picnic table.
Except for the Shiner Bock, these caps were all on the ground in Paradise. I saw them and photographed them on my morning walks. The Shiner Bock cap was disposed of appropriately.
Thanks so much for stopping by and leaving a comment.

May 23 A 4 mile walk Worked on my art projects Drummed and practiced ukulele Meditation for a few hours Made veggie food Hung out with my friend Journaled Thought different thoughts as much as possible.
May 24 began with a 2 mile hike. At a distance I had a conversation with a fellow hiker. There was a lot of yelling. hahahaha She was walking a beautiful white dog. After I returned to WHQ, I enjoyed a cup of iced coffee and a mandarin for breakfast, some journaling, and a life threatening trip to the Beeswax convenience store and grill. No masked shoppers other than me. Most people abided by the social distancing guidelines. The floor of the entire store was marked off in 6’ intervals. Sad as it is, I risked my life for a beer run.
May 25 Memorial Day I started the day with coffee and a banana at 5 am. Next was a 3 mile hike down by the lake. The sunrise was lovely this morning.
Lay Lake
I encountered this turtle. I apologized for interrupting it’s journey. I like to believe that crossing paths with a turtle is a positive omen bringing happiness.
As I continued I came upon a Killdeer nest. I am amazed at them. It surprises me that the eggs survive.
Lunch was a far cry from the standard Memorial Day BBQ with family and friends. Cabbage soup and a beer for me today. I do miss my mom’s pound cake on occasions like this. Feeling kind of alone on this holiday. It’s because I pick it.
The dream: I dreamed I was driving and I knew something wasn’t quite right. The passenger pointed it out too. Seems the car had started slowing rising into the air. We drifted near the wall of a Walmart store and used the bricks to pull the car back down. Then we got out. Oddly adults didn’t float but the one child in the car began to drift away.

Scene 1: I pulled the 5 of Water, Clinging to the Past, from the Osho Tarot deck. Such a great card for living in the Covid Common Era. The pre-Covid past exits only in our minds. The post-Covid future exists only in our minds. The present flits by into the past. If we stay in our minds, we will miss our lives.
Scene 2: To embrace both the sorrow and joy is difficult in these times of upheaval. As warriors we feel the pain while we continue to shine the light.
QOTD: “Hold the sadness and pain of samsara in your heart and at the same time the power and vision of the Great Eastern Sun. Then the warrior can make a proper cup tea.” -Chogyam Trungpa
Scene 3: An RV washing man came by. We struck a deal. He is washing my RV and my jeep for $225. This includes the awnings. I’m happy. 🕺🏽 WHQ is clean.
You bring joy to my heart. Stay safe and well out there in the CCE. I love you.

Day 29Day 30 This two just flew right on down where I was. Do you think they were trying to tell me something? I have been dreaming about death a lot. Day 31 Having a little fun with double exposure. Day 32 A happy face on the windowsill was nice to see. Day 33 I am inspired by this picture. I think it is a sign that I should become a professional strength goof off. Day 34 The alienDay 35 Amid all the discarded gloves and face masks, on a trail in the urban woods, I come across this.
Thank for stopping by. I appreciate all the likes and comments. Stay well in these different times.

The world has gone into a cocoon. We have a chance to emerge better, kinder, more loving. This is an opportunity to change things.
