A clear, shallow river curves through a forested landscape under a bright blue sky. The water reveals smooth stones and pebbles beneath its surface. Gravel banks line the river’s edge, flanked by tall evergreens and leafy deciduous trees in fresh spring green.

The summertime North Fork Calawah River is clear and beautiful 🩵💚

A ceramic bowl with a brown and beige speckled glaze holds scoops of vanilla ice cream generously topped with fresh blackberries. A metal spoon rests in the bowl. The background shows blurred green leaves and warm ambient lighting.

The war against invading Rubus armeniacus at home is something of a neverending nightmare, but I gotta say:

It's a damn tasty nightmare during berry season 😋

A close-up of a vibrant dahlia flower with pointed petals that transition from bright yellow at the base to vivid red at the tips. The bloom is fully open with tightly layered petals radiating outward, set against a soft-focus green garden background.

Exploding Dahlias

Thought I'd test posting media from littleOne with images of some of my partner's dahlias 🌸

While I prefer native wildflowers to non-native decoratives, I must admit that these dahlias are stunning 😍

I'm reminded that light is a physical thing when I step out of my house into the blazing sunlight of a clear summer day and feel the weight of the sun on my skin. I am again awed that a source of light and heat 150 million kilometers away can burn me 🤯
