    … I was going through all of the February photos making final deletions, adding keywords before committing to closure of the month and the filing of February 2018, when I came across a shoot I did while running the ridge from Humphreys Peak to Agassiz … and back and then run it again. If you ever go down to Torrey Pines in SoCal you will see gliders, hang gliders and model airplanes doing the same thing. There they have the constant on shore breeze from the Pacific Ocean hitting the bluffs and deflecting the wind vertically providing a rising cushion of air that you can soar in as long as the breeze lasts. In mountains, ridgelines and the like when you have a wind hitting the mountain at a more or less 90 degree angle you have the same effect, but on a far grander scale.

    I was at 12,629’ when I took this shot which is about 4’ below Humphreys Peak from which I was coming and about 300’ above Agassiz which is the peak in front of me as are the upper reaches of Snow Bowl. The trees were all covered with a hoar frost and it looked like Christmas … kinda felt like it too, but then a lot of days feel that way, especially the one I find myself in, cause I’M ALIVE!!! Thanks Steve

    So the weekend is upon us, have fun, keep breathing and creating a wonderful life … always the choice we have and no one else gets to make that determination for us.

    A bird flies through the sky, and I fly with it. I am each pearl of moisture sparkling in the sun.
    I lie lazy on the clouds. And I acknowledge my kinship with each winged thing.
    I see all as one, and nothing repels me, as this new day climbs noiselessly out of the valley of the night.
    Peace lies over the world and over the world of my soul.
    — Max Ehrmann

    A Bad Moon Rising

    By Tommy Acosta
    What the hell is going on? Is the fabric of society in the U.S. tearing apart at the seams? Watching those videos of teens gone wild, smashing windows, stealing from shopping centers, laughing while running over bicyclists — an omen of things to come? What can be done? Catch them? Incarcerate them. Put them in jails until they learn enough about crime to come out as skilled criminals? These kids, these young men and women of color, are growing wild in the streets. From fatherless homes, unable to properly read or write, a dismal and destitute future ahead of them. What is going to happen when they reach adulthood? The cops can’t stop them. There are simply too many. They can flash mob a phalanx of cops and just run berserk around them. What are the police to do? Shoot them? Read more→
