Thanks, Again

It has been a year since Hurricane Helene whopped us.  I began this piece then, and have worked on it all year.  Tears, prayer boxes, faces distorted in grief.

Snag

Over a year ago, Gregg and I hit a snag with his health.  Well, a bunch of snags, as Hurricane Helene blew inland 500 mile and knocked the hell out of us.  There is still damage, but we’re over the snag.

Squirrel

The season is changing, and we put the last of the bird seed in the feeder.  This squirrel jumps up and hangs from his/her back legs.  Killer abs to curl up and get a seed.  Now the hummingbird feeder is up, and it will have to go out to gather seeds.
