    … this Great Blue Heron was gliding along a rock face down at Watson Lake in Prescott, Arizona. Some of the granite boulders rise more than a hundred feet above the water while others lurk just inches below the water waiting for the unsuspecting boater to cruise up and on top of it snaring the unlucky boat … been there and done that. Still, the shots you can get of both wildlife and scenic beauty are worth the risk. A little rocking of the boat and pushing with paddles is usually enough to get you off the rock … hard to see when the winds and waves are up … easier when the water is calm.

    Up to Flagstaff tomorrow for a couple of appointments and looking at new Mercury outboards with a little more oomph than my present one. Maybe a drive up to Snow Bowl too … so much beauty in the area.

    This is it for the week and as always the plan is to be back Monday morning. Have a wonderful day and weekend … be yourself and be true to your beliefs,  most people are good and love their fellow human beings and country. This is the greatest country to ever grace this beautiful planet and we have done more good for people than any other nation … we are blessed.

    Keep breathing … keep smiling.

    Excerpts from Desiderata
     
    Go placidly amid the noise and the haste, and
    remember what peace there may be in silence.
     
    As far as possible, without surrender, be on good
    terms with all persons.
     
    Speak your truth quietly and clearly; and listen to
    others, even to the dull and ignorant; they too
    have their story.
     
    Avoid loud and aggressive persons; they are
    vexatious to the spirit.
     
    With all its sham, drudgery and broken dreams,
    it is still a beautiful world.
     
    Be cheerful.
     
    Strive to be happy.
     
    Max Ehrmann

    The Symbolism of Jan. 6

    By Tommy Acosta
    Don’t mess with symbols. Just ask author Dan Brown’s character Robert Landon. The worth of symbols cannot be measured. Symbols make the world-go-round. Symbols carry the weight of a thousand words and meanings. Symbols represent reality boiled down to the bone. Symbols evoke profound emotions and memories—at a very primal level of our being—often without our making rational or conscious connections. They fuel our imagination. Symbols enable us to access aspects of our existence that cannot be accessed in any other way. Symbols are used in all facets of human endeavor. One can only feel sorry for those who cannot comprehend the government’s response to the breech of the capital on January 6, with many, even pundits, claiming it was only a peaceful occupation. Regardless if one sees January 6 as a full-scale riot/insurrection or simply patriotic Americans demonstrating as is their right, the fact is the individuals involved went against a symbol, and this could not be allowed or go unpunished.
