“There are two ways of spreading light: to be the candle or the mirror that receives it.” ~ Edith Wharton Don’t tell anyone, but I’m still in my pajamas! I am very thankful for the heavy sky, wind, lack of light, and cold today on the plains of North Dakota. I finally convinced myself it […]

“It’s not what you look at that matters, it’s what you see.” ~David Thoreau This morning arrived waaayyyy before dawn. Yesterday we found the pitter patter stallion, Blaze, in amazing landscape.
