Scene 1:

I went for a walk. It’s the longest in a long time.

Scene 2:

I was lighting incense on the “not an altar” and when I moved the deck this card fell out. We are the world

Great card for my current practice. I am the car. I am the tree. I am the dirty dish. I am the garbage can. I am not separated from all this.

Scene 3:

So much see in an antique mall.

Thank you for reading, liking and commenting. 💛

Blah day thus far.

I’ve just sat around. I could not get the energy going. Seeking the flow, I went for a short walk down by the lake.

I’m trying.

I have gone to my gurus; Jesus, Alan Watts, Ram Dass, and Sadhguru, for renewal and encouragement. I have journaled online and off. I have taken and edited pictures. Made food. Enjoyed libations. Wooden Indian: Mother with child

Practicing present moment meditation.

Nothing is wrong.

I love you.

Shelby Iron Works

10 Comments

Located near the geographic center of Alabama, in the small, quiet town of Shelby, lies the remains of Alabama’s largest charcoal blast furnace. These remains give scant evidence to the important role it played during the Civil War and Alabama’s fledgling iron industry. Despite operating for over half a century, this landmark would have faded in memory without the preservation efforts of the Historic Shelby Association.

This Old Barn 

18 Comments

This old barn is located in Natchez Trace State Park.   I was free to explore and take pictures. I could have gone inside. I was tempted.  I didn’t.  I wasn’t concerned about it falling on me. I was concerned about snakes in the dark spots.

The Holmes Medical Museum is located above the drug store in Baldwin County’s first hospital, which served the community from 1936-1958. Many of the items on display are the original medical artifacts including surgical instruments, operating room machinery and a human skeleton. The interior of the museum is like a time capsule remaining practically unchanged from the time it served as the area’s first hospital. This fascinating museum will definitely take you back in time.
