“There are simply no answers to some of the grea

“There are simply no answers to some of the great pressing questions. You continue to live them out, making your life a worthy expression of leaning into the light.”

B.A.B.S 🌀 Big-A$$ Burls My son calls them tree

B.A.B.S 🌀 Big-A$$ Burls My son calls them tree warts and scientists theorize that burls or these extraneous tree growths act as “scabs” for ailing trees. But did you know that inside that gnarly bump is a magnificent design? The swirl patterns burls create are highly coveted by woodworkers and some scoundrels will even steal them! Have you ever seen a burl? Here are 3️⃣ ways to have fun with burls: 🌀Go Burl-lunking!

𝘾𝙝𝙖𝙣𝙜𝙚 𝙞𝙨 𝙘𝙤𝙢𝙞

𝘾𝙝𝙖𝙣𝙜𝙚 𝙞𝙨 𝙘𝙤𝙢𝙞𝙣𝙜 September is a month of beginnings and endings. School starts and summer ends. The crisp nights creep in earlier and the brisker dawns bloom later. While some flowers are just beginning to unfurl, others are shrinking for the season. Licks of color invade the hills and the natural world begins to wind down. I’m trying to remind myself to wind down with it — to take this time and pause, breathe, lean in, and embrace it all before it’s gone in a puff of frost. But it’s hard. How do we slow down when things simultaneously feel like they’re ramping up? Life is fuller — school, soccer, gymnastics, work — and hikes gets harder to fit in. I don’t have an answer for this and if you’ve figured it out, teach me how. But I do know I’ll be trying to soak in every tiny moment: every wisp of fog over the mountain as I sip my morning coffee, every fallen leaf on the sidewalk at school drop-off, and every cricket-chorus cheering at the soccer sidelines as the sun sinks low.
