It was a wonderful time together, with Jennifer returning to Vancouver yesterday with the 2 days prior dog mushing..a very fast forest pathway with me being pitched off on the first quick turn out of the yard onto ice!!...more bruised shoulder...and my decision to be happy with being in the 'bunny bag', a new term I coined to everyone's delight. Very happy to be photographing, videoing with the guide driving the team and Jennifer doing a fabulous job with her own team on a very technical run. Well done! Then the next day a Takhini river run with Jennifer and I together...great sharing, laughing...again with me in the 'bunny bag', a Yukon dinner at the lodge where we stayed the night...cariboo, elk, bison, Arctic char...AND THAT NIGHT WAS OUR FIRST TRUE SIGHTING OF THE NORTHERN LIGHTS!!! WOW.....!!!!! Jennifer's last night here in the Yukon--a great send off.
Back at the B & B yesterday, March 1 --Yukon B & B--fabulous night of watching the northern lights and photograhy. Columns spiraling, dancing, jumping...I feel so blessed!
Hunkering down here to relax, be in a hot tub, writing, catching up to blog, www.pathwaysandportals.blogspot.com.....reading, sleeping in, art and in time, try some snowshowing, walking trails into the valley of this 50+acre ranch. It is sunny, like almost always...blue sky, truly alive & for Sourdough Rendezvous, -37. A wonderful adventure of a lifetime. Check photos on Facebook....for now. Mara
'JOURNEYS:Pathways and Portals'-- each journey begins with a single step or choice(conscious or subconscious)which leads us along a pathway, a specific direction, with focused footsteps. Along this pathway are portals or openings which I see as opportunities. When we step toward these opportunities, we then have taken another pathway at that intersection.
This blog will share some of my journeys through the creative process of writing/photos. My lst article 'Let's Go!...Dog Mushing In The Yukon' will forever remain one of the most empowering experiences of my life, so is fitting to be lst.
Included in my blog's launch are also two very memorable, special times recently with my two children. Eventually I want to share 'JOURNEYS PAST: Pathways That Have Brought Me Here' as some of you have been wanting me to do for some time.My poetry/phil.essays/travelogues & experiential art mandalas and the photography/poetry & writing surrounding them will find their way here in their own timing.
Included now is my present journey in 'EUROPE: Footsteps Through England', the first part of a journey of epic proportions.
