These are really beautiful! Is this where you live? You are so lucky! I'd love to wake up in the morning with a view like this, with endless fields of green and flowers.

Emily, are there any bears around, where you are living, and, if so, do they love Brahms? Posted on June 25, 2007 at 4:27 PM Brahms should really be in the taste of bears in my opinion. I haven't read all your short masterpieces yet, so there might be something about what animals one can find in your area. Your writing is great. Very imaginative, sensitive and poetic coloured by a witty sense of humour. And all these wonderful photos... The next step is to get a ticket, I guess. Is this the place, where a restless soul can find peace? From Emily Grossman
Thanks, Tom!Posted on June 25, 2007 at 11:40 PM Putch, these photos come from hikes. My backyard is sort of pretty, but the prettiest views are up on the mountainsides. Ariel, I imagine that if bears were people (especially brown bears), they would like Brahms, cigars, and fudge. As to whether you find peace here, I discovered that when I came here I brought with me everything that was already inside me. But the change of scenery was nice.

Follow the way of the bee.

The LA Times recently had a story about bees being sick and dying in great numbers. I'm glad they are okay up in Alaska....!

Fascinating article, Laurie. I've heard of this phenomenon, and was excited to see all the observations and data being collected. I think this kind of thing has happened before, but we are able to observe it more closely now than before. It will be interesting to see what new discoveries they make and what conclusions they draw.Posted on June 26, 2007 at 7:50 AM My favorite line from the article refers to the beekeeper that was interviewed: "In April, the normally hale Hackenberg started feeling short of breath. His doctor said he was suffering from stress and suggested he slow down. Not now, Hackenberg thought. "I'm going to go down fighting." Busy as a beekeeper?
