The purpose of this blog is to be seen as a creative outlet. Nothing more.

I have always been curious about so many aspects of our natural world & now I am taking a moment to indulge in that curiosity. I hope that my few steps taken in this direction will inspire those of you who mistakenly trip over my blogging path. But, mostly, my hope is that my daughters & grandchildren will read this and see me as myself. As a person who loved all that was put in front of her, who continued to learn & grow & change as her life did the same. I also hope that they will give themselves permission to do the same.

“I think, at a child”s birth, if a mother could ask a fairy godmother to endow it with the most useful gift, that gift should be curiosity.”          Eleanor Roosevelt
