Time to pause . . . . . . . .

There are definitely days when I feel it must be

better to be an animal or bird, even a reptile. . . 

. . . not a member of the inhuman race.

Even as we deal with horrendous destruction by

Hurricanes Harvey and Irma, we take time to 

pause on this always heartbreaking anniversary.

We have just watched the annual 9/11 Memorial Service

from Ground Zero in New York City, marking the 

tragedy on this morning sixteen years ago.

We will never forget that day.

A Look At Life II. . . . . . . . . . . . .

Photos from Ireland, England and North Carolina - 2016

Still working at getting back on track here on the blog.

I'm needing some time to plan, organize, think through, relax, discover, detox the
 body and perhaps more importantly the mind. I've stopped watching television news. 
Am I sticking my head in the sand to save my sanity?

 Maybe I am, but at my age I can do that. 
Currently I'm having a difficult time with the world situation. 

I want to enjoy the beauty of life.
For a start, I need to spend more time on my huge library of photographs
 from the seven continents, doing something worthwhile with them.

This past week I watched the most amazing two hour program on my
 PBS station - Ireland's Wild Coast (watch the trailer) with
 award-winning Irish cinematographer, Colin Stafford-Johnson. 

Be certain to see the program if you can.
Since visiting there last year I've not stopped thinking about the glorious
 beauty, magnificence, peacefulness of that lovely country's Western Coast.
If it was at all possible I believe I would move there tomorrow, or even today!
