Very odd weather – global warming? Cold Cold Cold then bam it’s hot today! Daffs in full bloom and even the tulips popping out. Hurray for color, spring flowers, sun and warmth.
Sometimes you need to grag your toys and go off and have some fun! The beach usually helps too! Let your ears flap and just go!

The faces of the MIT Flea market this morning
Went to the MIT Flea Market this morning – some people saw lots of stuff – I saw lots of great faces.
Well – now it’s March first…. and snowing…. ugh. Well I clearly have no control of that but what I am thinking about these days is Presentations. In the present economy it seems that everyone is thinking about how to “present” their business to others – to keep the flow going. So I march on into the world of keynote and power point – a very powerful, intriguing and fun graphic medium. With many years of experience in the art on communication with graphics this seems like a “no-brainer” to me. Check my website for a quick version of a presentation I made for myself/fullcirlcedesigns (page “services”)
A little behind the eight ball – been very busy – new job, getting ready to travel and life in general.
Weather has been awful overall – not that needs to be a photographic hindrance- may even be a good thing as times, but this go around it was just cold and depressing…. and so no new images or words.
Spring to me means sun, heat and breaths of fresh air – here is Beaus version of all that! 
Ahhh – Spring is finally here today – a Daffodil and some Violas blooms in our own yard and the world seems alright. Breath deep – soak in some sun… Spring renewal is on the way! 
Ahh – Spring is finally arriving! Opening Day at Fenway, flowers are pushing up from the earth, sunny days if we are really lucky, birthdays all around, and a overall sense of RENEWAL – here’s to new beginning’s.
“alpine glow” A sequence of colours seen on snow-covered mountain tops at sunset, sometimes called alpenglow or (German) alpenglüh. The true alpine glow begins when the Sun is still above the horizon. Mountain tops that are illuminated by the Sun become yellow, pink, reddish, and finally purple, …from encyclopedia.com -alpineglow
A soothing view and “my take” on Alpine Glow . .. from the hills of the Adirondack Mountains near Saranac Lake, NY – from our friends front porch. Life is beautiful, life is calm, life is a dusty glow?!
On March 20, 2008, at precisely 1:48 A.M. EDT, the Sun will cross directly over the Earth’s equator…. and ahhhhh the beginning of Spring ! We can stand at the edges of the woods and hopefully see light- sun, new days and new bright beginning’s!

It was a new day – I awoke early to a lovely cold wet puppy nose. I opened the door and was astounded by the possibilities that a new day could bring in every sense I could think of. Here was the beginning of creating myself, TODAY – not yesterday, possibly a place to build on tomorrow. I stood in the doorway with my (already) faithful friend who constantly showed me joy each day in just being herself. Free to run, free to explore, free roam. I knew that she had joined me in my everyday life to help remember that joy IS all around. …. and so the day began.
So we stood in the doorway – taking in the beautiful morning – breath deep, enjoy it, slow down and soak it in I was telling myself. I have been thinking about the process of “releasing your worries” – knowing I need the learn some life skills in that area. Wondering how am I to get my arms around that … and the phone rang in the room behind me. Being of a certain nature I feel compelled to answer it so I left my thoughts and went over to get it. On the other end was a good friend. What a joy to reconnect – to catch up and chat for a while about life, love and what is going on. At the end of the visit I am reminding myself – that most of us need to learn to “let go” – as my dear friend Beau so elegantly put – “Learn how to fly.”
But RENEWAL awaits – Winds from the outer limits blew thru the night, torrid rain many days, then… sun, water and some fresh clean ocean air into my body,heart and mind! … we arrive at the oceans edge – and the sight is of “ghost chairs.” Waves gently fold in and out…. sunset is approaching…. A spirits dinner party at the universe edge? An invitation to join the new season? A quiet reflection? A seat to sit and contemplate from? A “vision” of peace? A time of ebb and flow for the world and certainly in my world.
