… on the way back home from West Sedona this afternoon, I stopped by the columbarium at Church of The Red Rocks for a short visit … it was quiet except for the sound of the wind soughing in the trees … remembering the life I lived with Cork and the friends with whom we spent many a day sharing life and laughter with, now silent. The view is beautiful and the life I continue to live is magnificent with a new sense of richness shared with friends and family still here. Without question my life is blessed!
The photo above I took at the end of a great soaring day … Cathedral Rock is slipping beneath my nose and the airport is above it …on the horizon from the left is Sitgreaves Mountain, Kendrick Peak, the San Francisco Peaks and Mt. Elden. Few things in life can compare with slipping through the air on silent wings and you are one with all that is.
Below is an Osprey making his get away with dinner firmly in his talons and the sound of the attack and escape covered by the sound of the aerators pumping water into the air only to splash down in the pond.
Have a beautiful day, keep breathing and smiling … you are here and with choices to make!
Cheers,
Ted

the strength, cherish a desire to do
some useful work in your
little corner of the world, and
have the steadfastness to labor.
For this is the way to the
happy life; with health and
endearing ties, it is the way to the
glorious life.
