“Why you? Why us for that matter? Why anything? Because this moment simply is. Have you ever seen bugs trapped in amber?… Well, here we are, Mr. Pilgrim, trapped in the amber of this moment. There is no why.”

Rain Drops On a Echeveria Plant (September 9, 2016) — Image by kenne
On April 7, 2016, I posted some images of Echeveria Blossoms. The blossoms are small, but exceptionally beautiful. Now long gone, still nature has a way of creating beauty through collaboration — rain water beading on this gray succulent.

National Public Lands Day Is September 24th Leave a comment
Pampas Grass In Sabino Canyon — Image by kenne
For many, pampas grass is an ornamental landscape plant, for others it’s an environmentally dangerous plant that crowds out indigenous desert plants and can become kneeling for wildfires. Sabino Canyon has a lot of pampas grass, fountain grass, buffel grass and other invasive plants. The battle to remove these invasive plants continues on National Public Lands Day as Sabino Stewards (Sabino Canyon Volunteer Naturalists) and community members will be digging, pulling, and bagging invasive plants near the Sabino Creek area. This activity is one of several activities that will be taking place in the Coronado National Forest September 24th on Public Lands Day. All fees are waived for the day.

Once an invasive species arrives, it’s about impossible yo get rid of it.

Bryce Canyon Snapshots 2 comments
Geological fact: Bryce Canyon isn’t actually a canyon.
It’s actually a natural amphitheater.

Bryce Canyon Snapshots by kenne
This beautiful land of hoodoos is best view at sunrise or sunset. Unfortunately
these images were taken around mid-day — still a beautiful National Park to visit.
Named after pioneer and cattleman Ebenezer Bryce, who once said of the canyon,
“One hell of a place to loose a cow.”
“Paiute Indian history says the colorful,
wildly-shaped hoodoos were ‘Legend People’
who were turned into stone by the trickster god Coyote.”
. . . and I thought the roadrunner was the trickster!

Acceptance of what has happened
is the first step to overcoming
the consequences of any misfortune.

It’s the sides of the mountain that sustain life, not the top.
