Sabino Canyon Still Closed Leave a comment
Flag Over Sabino Canyon Visitor Center (11/07/11) — Photo-Artistry by kenne
I miss not being able to be out in Sabino Canyon, which will remain closed because of the Bighorn Fire till November 1st.
The Forest Service is keeping the Canyon closed to minimize dam and infrastructure damage due to flash flooding
during the monsoon season.
On Wednesday, August 5th, some Naturalists will be part of a Zoon meeting with Santa Catalina District Ranger, CJ Woodard.
He will give an update on the Sabino Canyon closure and be available for questions and answers.

On the Grasshopper and Cricket — Keats Leave a comment

One of the many bloggers I follow is “The Parlando Project – Where Music and Words Meet,” where Frank Hudson presents short audio pieces, from 2 to 10 minutes in length, combining music and spoken word in various ways.
On July 31st Frank posted “On the Grasshopper and Cricket.” Click here to read Frank’s story on what lead him to combine music with the Keats poem and listen to the audio.
On the Grasshopper and Cricket
The Poetry of earth is never dead:
When all the birds are faint with the hot sun,
And hide in cooling trees, a voice will run
From hedge to hedge about the new-mown mead;
That is the Grasshopper’s—he takes the lead
In summer luxury,—he has never done
With his delights; for when tired out with fun
He rests at ease beneath some pleasant weed.
The poetry of earth is ceasing never:
On a lone winter evening, when the frost
Has wrought a silence, from the stove there shrills
The Cricket’s song, in warmth increasing ever,
And seems to one in drowsiness half lost,
The Grasshopper’s among some grassy hills.
— John Keats

Late yesterday a lot of haze moved in the Tucson basin probably as a result of the Apple Fire burning in the Cherry Valley area east of San Bernadino and south of Big Bear Lake in southern California. This is a sunset image from our patio.

Empty Chairs In Waiting Leave a comment

O sun!
Why have you moved on?
A minute too early.
Water over the dam.
Umbrellas ready to fall.
Empty chairs in waiting.

The sea contracts.
Hurry, hurry!
The sea will get you.
Run, run!
I was not willing.

Today the sea is calm.
Shadows move on the sand.
Tonight the winds blow.
The moon on the water.
Moon beneath the winds.
Stars stay on the night.
