1. Recently it was 2.22.2022. 2+2+2+2+2+2 = 12 1+2 = 3 “Wherever the number 3 shows up in your life, it’s generally an omen of creativity, communication, optimism, and curiosity!” – Cosmopolitan
2. It isn’t always easy to find a location where I can wash WHQ in the traditional sense: lots of water and soap. I’ve been using this waterless car wash for several years with excellent results.
3. How much time do you spend talking to yourself everyday? I mean in your head, not out loud. Do you mostly talk to yourself about the same things you talked about yesterday?
QOTD: “We cannot live securely in a world which is not our own, in a world which is interpreted for us by others.
“Part of the terror is to take back our own listening, to put our ears to our own inner voices, to see our own light, which is our birthright, and comes to us in silence.” ~ Elaine Bellezza

I visited Devil’s Backbone again. It’s one of my favorite spots at Magnolia Branch. There are some cool rock formations. It’s not an easy place to walk.
QOTD: “The great lessons from the true mystics, from the Zen monks, is that the sacred is in the ordinary, that it is to be found in one’s daily life, in one’s neighbors, friends, and family, in one’s back yard, and that travel may be a flight from confronting the sacred. To be looking everywhere for miracles is a sure sign of ignorance that everything is miraculous. ~ Abraham H. Maslow, Religions, Values, and Peak Experiences

My neighbor brought over breakfast: turkey bacon, orange slices and an omelet. It was a cheese, onion, mushroom and canned peas omelet. The peas were a real surprise to me
QOTD: “At every moment, your mind is free—free to reject any thoughts, impulses, and feelings that are barreling into it from who-knows-where. Free to leap to some fresh perspective, inspiring thought, or deep feeling.” ~ Rob Brezsny

Old man on the riverbank. Old Man on the Riverbank is based on this photograph I took at the Devil’s Backbone on Big Escambia Creek. The StarryAI app generated Old Man on the Riverbank from this photo. What’s Next?This is the prompt photo I used with StarryAI for the picture above.

I saw these lovely flowers down by Big Escambia Creek while I was meditating on the shore. They were tiny. This is a macro shot. This is the laundry area and one of the three bathhouses. It’s lovely here.

Previously I posted some pictures of Big Escambia Creek flooding. Here is a comparison.
Top: flooded Bottom: Water receded It was a beautiful day. This tiny blooms were the icing on the cake. I think they are huckleberry blossoms.I discovered this growing down by the water. This is my front yard a little before sunset.

I’m not sure about my project this year. I have a lot of questions I’m working out. I think it’s a photo book project. The first phase is collecting photos from my stay at Magnolia Branch Wildlife Reserve.
Here are a few from the flooding February 4th.
The road was flooded for a quarter mile or so. It was more than a foot deep around the curve. I didn’t take a picture there because I did not want to stop. I think I was off the road several times. Water leaked into the jeep. You can just see the yellow rails of the platform above the water at the bottom of the staircase. Normally that platform is 10 feet above the water. The day before I walked past that green sign 50’ or more down to the Big Escambia Creek. Not this day. The big, wide beach eroded and was still partially under water. I didn’t go there while it was mostly under water.
QOTD: “To achieve what the Zen Buddhists call “beginner’s mind,” you dispense with all preconceptions and enter each situation as if seeing it for the first time. “In the beginner’s mind there are many possibilities,” wrote Zen teacher Shunryu Suzuki. “but in the expert’s there are few.”

February 1 I left South Montgomery and headed towards Atmore to hang out in the woods.
While getting prepped to leave, the inverter Freedom 458 had an attacked of humming. I panicked, makes several calls, messed with the inverter and then it stopped humming. My current plan is to roll to Atmore, order a replacement, have it shipped here and install it when I return to Montgomery. Keep your fingers crossed.
I bought fuel on the way. I have a 60 gallon tank.
I was running on empty. I have a nice, peaceful new yard. I’m looking forward to the campfires and bicycle riding as soon as the rain slacks up. My first visitor. I believe it is an assassin beetle.
QOTD: Many raindrops, trickles, streams, creeks, and rivers contribute to the pool of cosmic consciousness. Each tributary has its own eddies, whirlpools, stagnant backwaters, calm pools and rushing rapids. Where they converge the merging is not always easy. At times there is resistance, turbulence as each tries to have its separate way.
