Reno, The Biggest Little City in the World
I guess itsa “woke”bookstore, Dharma refers to the teachings of Buddhism and just before Gautama Buddha died he was asked “How will you be remembered,? to which he replied, “As the awakened one”.
Reno in the late sunny afternoon . . .
And early morning snow. My mother had a stroke, lost her memory, I was staying in her apartment, she was in the hospital, this was the view out her window. I had no idea that the next five years would be a change in my life and I would learn what it meant .to take a responsibility for a parent,
Alameda Creek
Along Alameda Creek life goes on as usual, a woman and her dog . . .
And then real life adventures along Alameda Creek come along …
The drowning was about a mile up from, here.where Iused towalk until my hips did not allow it
And still , life goes on, a man and his dog . . .
A mother and son . . .
and a woman and her dog.
Oh our Mother the Earth, oh our Father the Sky,
Your children are we, and with tired backs
We bring you the gifts that you love.
Then weave for us a garment of brightness,
May the warp be the white light of morning,
May the weft be the red light of evening,
May the fringes be the falling rain,
May the border be the standing rainbow.
Thus weave for us a garment of brightness
That we may walk fittingly where birds sing,
That we may walk fittingly where the grass is green.
Oh Mother the Earth, Oh Father the Sky.

For me its in the photograph I make. Why do I have an answer in my mind searching for a question?
