We’re still waiting for our first real snow here in my part of Nebraska, which is a little disappointing. I’m looking forward to a walk through the prairie on the first sunny morning after a snow storm. It’s then I get to follow the tracks of other creatures who passed by before me. I also like to see the results of the wind – snow drifts, seeds scattered across the snow, and patterns drawn by leaves and stems that are tethered at one end but free-swinging at the other.
Enjoy the holiday season over the next couple of weeks. I hope, amidst all the family and other events, you’ll have some time to take a walk or two in your own neighborhood prairie. I know I will.
With or without snow…
Hello Chris,
Have a wonderful Holiday, take care, and stay warm.

Life is the flash of a firefly in the night
It is the breath of a buffalo in the winter
It is the little shadow which runs across the grass
and loses itself in the sunset
