The Ageless Experiment

The ride over was uneventful. The storms stayed in the distance. Everyone else was someplace else. The island was in a very sleepy state. The house was happy to see the lone visitor. The Triumph Scrambler enjoyed the brief ride over the sandy back roads. But as I settled in for a quiet, still evening […]

Shutters. Some people just put them up. As if a storm was brewing in the Atlantic, the weatherman said prepare and shutters were put up on the windows and doors, some people put up shutters over their eyes, ears, feelings and heart when some personal storm is brewing.

The house was nestled at the edge of a canyon. The red jeep, no top, no doors, was parked out front.The air was crisp and the day was new.Boulder on a September morning.She decided to get lost on the mountain roads somewhere between Ward, Niwot and Estes Park.A new day indeed.Life had led her here.No […]

She could still dance. She hadn't danced in quite a while. Life seemed to get in the way.The busy stuff of the day. Not necessarily the important things that should fill up the day. Just busy stuff. Everyone talked about it though. Are you busy? Keeping busy? Busy? As if busy was a purpose in […]

It all related to an online purchase that got confused somehow and it was resolved quickly, without drama and […]

Unbridled. Unrestrained.Unleashed. Letting go and being released. What would it feel like to run for the finish line at full gallop, no cares, nothing to think about but that moment of time.

A puzzle. A maze. A detour without signposts. No script. No roadmap. No compass. No walking stick. No guide.
