    … six AM found us launching the boat at the main ramp on the south end of Lake Pleasant this morning and the usual morning wind from the north was blowing causing white caps to appear on the water. Turf Soaring was only about four miles from the launch ramp and this phenomenon was well known to us. In the mornings the cold dense air rolls down off the Colorado Plateau into the desert and mid morning the wind direction changes as the desert warms up … thermals begin late morning to early afternoon and soaring is possible.

    At any rate, progress was a little slow heading up to the Castle Creek area of the lake … not much fun being pounded by the waves. Our first stop once we got up to the relatively quiet waters of the north end of the lake was the owl nest. The owls are gone and fledged sometime between Saturday and this morning … wishing them all a great life wherever they are.

    In one of the coves we came across a Green Heron and he played with us for awhile before getting out of Dodge. They are a seldom seen bird in this area and are a solitary type species. Click on the green type to learn more about this remarkable little creature.

    Another beautiful day lived … today will more than likely be terrific too … all I have to do is choose for it to be so! Smile, keep breathing and check out the creatures who live around and among you 🙂

    Cheers,

    Therefore be at peace with God, whatever you conceive Him to be.
     
    And whatever your labors and aspirations, in the noisy confusion of life, keep peace in your soul.
     
    With all its sham, drudgery and broken dreams, it is still a beautiful world.
     
    Be cheerful. Strive to be happy.

    The Bloody Machine
    By Tommy Acosta
    What is a life anyway? A single “life?” Is it nothing more than a collection of emotions and thoughts, reverberating pain and pleasure, hopes, dreams and fear? Are we merely meat; flesh and blood creations encapsulating what we believe is a soul? Or is a single life the microcosm and macrocosm of human life on earth, each one of us a unique representation of who we believe we are and the whole of humanity at once? We are born. We grow old. We die. Everything we experience is but a dream between those two points. Or are we manifestations of a Divine Creator, every one of us complete in the image that we were made? So, we are told.
