John Muir once opined, "It is by far the grandest of all the special temples of Nature I was ever permitted to enter."
Yosemite National Park is a study in grandeur, from the massive granite cliffs to the towering giant sequoias, it is home to some of the most breathtaking spectacles on earth.
America's National Parks are some of the greatest treasures in the world, and people should make every effort to take in their beauty in person. I hope that, in some small way, sharing some of my images on social media and the internet helps to inspire people to unplug and explore for themselves, these "special temples of Nature."

It would be easy to lose your perspective, immersed in the 24-hour news cycle, guided by media overload, and distracted by countless phone apps. It would be easy to believe that the modern world is simply one long series of disasters and crises. Unplug. Sit. Listen. Let the beauty wash over you and soak in to your bones. Let the rhythm soothe your soul. Remember there is still beauty and hope in the world, if only we would take a moment to stop and smell the roses. Escape to the real world or even a virtual one as beautiful as Cloud Edge. You need this.
Thank you AD for showing me that there is still beauty in the world.
Thank you so much Embracing Solitude for the cover. it is always an honor. ♥
♫ Christopher Williams - Don't Wake Me I'm Dreamin ♫
If I'm dreaming
Then just let me sleep
Don't wake me up
Till my dream is complete
If I'm dreaming
Just leave me alone
Turn off the lights
And unplug the phone
I can't get over
The fact that I'm with you
Now that I have you
I don't know what to do
Girl, if I'm dreaming
I'm dreaming 'bout you
About the things
That I like to do
Don't wake me, I'm dreaming
Girl, don't wake me
Don't wake me, I'm dreaming
Girl, I'm dreaming 'bout you
So you think you can stone me and spit in my eye?
Just gotta get out, just gotta get right outta here.
Queen
Welcome to the place where one savours the fact that they can't get any bars... unplug... decompress... recharge at Birdlings. slurl - maps.secondlife.com/secondlife/Haraiki%20Bay/142/121/1198
Hits from the bong
Hits from the bong
Hits from the bong
Hits from the bong
Pick it, pack it, fire it up, come along
And take a hit from the bong
Put the blunt down just for a second
Don't get me wrong it's not a new method
Inhale, exhale
Just got a ounce in the mail
I like a blunt or a big fat cone
But my double barrel bong is gettin' me stoned
Home skillet, there's water inside don't spill it
It smells like shit on the carpet, still it
Goes down smooth when I get a clean hit
Of the skunky funky smelly green shit
Sing my song, puff all night long
As I take hits from the bong
Hits from the bong y'all
Can I get a hit?
Hits from the bong
Can I get a hit?
Hits from the bong
Can I get a hit?
Hits from the bong
Let's smoke that bowl, hit the bong
And then take that finger off of that hole
Plug it, unplug it, don't strain
I love you Mary Jane
She never complains, when I hit Mary
With that flame, I light up the cherry
She's so good to me
When I pack a fresh bowl I clean the screen
Don't get me stirred up the smoke, through the bub-bling
Water is makin' it pure so I got to
Take my hit and hold it, just like
Chong, I get the bowl and I reload it
Get my four-footer and bring it on
As I take hits from the bong
Hits from the bong
Can I get a hit?
Hits from the bong
Can I get a hit?
Hits from the bong
Can I get a hit?
Hits from the bong
Can I get a hit?

Can I get a hit?
This shit'll straighten your dick out
Can I get a hit?
Quasi tutto riprende a funzionare se stacchi la spina per qualche minuto.....per qualche ora...per qualche giorno.....;-)
This bear came into my horse camp last week. My horse let me know something was up, she was frantic, so without seeing what it was I hurried to load Nikita into the trailer. Bears don’t have a unique response for humans. Everything they do is based upon what they’d do if they ran into another bear, If we unwittingly trigger that bear-on-bear response, then it’s full-on and you better be ready. What you want to do is convince the bear that attacking isn’t worth it which i did after I took this quick shot. My heart was pounding through my chest when I used my bear banger and horn. Luckily, It decided this meal wasn't worth the hassle.
I'm going to unplug and enjoy the rest of Fall. It has been exciting so far with lots of trail riding.... See you in October some time...

This tiny flower is only the size of my pinky nail! The background and foreground is the pattern on my denim jeans, taken with my fabulous 40mm Nikkor lens!
Hello all I had to take a slight break and unplug just a little. I felt like other area's in my life were getting less of my attention and I spend a lot of time here. I love Flickr though and sharing our images and hopefully getting inspired. I was inspired by my Flickr friend Sue to post this image of this teeny tiny flower. She had recently posted a similar image. I haven't done much shooting lately but hopefully soon!
Thank you all so very much for the visit it's always a nice surprise!

This is especially hard for me right now....forgiving others. I think when people hurt you, and they are not sorry, nor feel concern whatsoever for your broken heart, it makes it harder to forgive and forget. Trying to let go of the pain and trying not to let those stabs pain your heart is easier said that done, right? Sometimes we just have to let it go, not take it personally and move on.
In these times I have noticed more often that people are getting nastier. They are miserable and want to make others feel as awful as they do. All we can do is unplug. Distance ourselves from the hatred and surround ourselves with love. Don't let the negativity destroy you!
Sending each on of my Flickr friends good vibes during these trying times! XO

if we all just slowed down and turned off the tube, and allowed ourselves to return to our natural selfs, we would see that life is not to bad. We just need to unplug and watch the Sunset or Sunrise. Nature has the power to heal both the body and our spirit.

... so
... eyeflyer macht Sommerpause ...
zieht den Stecker und ab in den Garten -
die Weite ... in die Berge
auf den See und in den Liegestuhl ...
eyeflyer goes on a summer break
unplug computer ...
Wish all my dear flickr friends and contacts
summery days ...
take it easy
take care
Hope to see you again in some weeks ...
It's not far down to paradise
At least it's not for me
And if the wind is right you can sail away
And find tranquility
The canvas can do miracles
Just you wait and see
Believe me
It's not far to never never land
No reason to pretend
And if the wind is right you can find the joy
Of innocence again
The canvas can do miracles
Just you wait and see
Believe me
Sailing
Takes me away
To where I've always heard it could be
Just a dream and the wind to carry me
And soon I will be free
Fantasy
It gets the best of me
When I'm sailing
All caught up in the reverie
Every word is a symphony
Won't you believe me
It's not far back to sanity
At least it's not for me
And when the wind is right you can sail away
And find serenity
The canvas can do miracles
Just you wait and see
Believe me

and take good care of the child's heart inside you...♡

I always loved this shot. A variation of this one was used in my first book, "The Secret Life of Squirrels"
This photo was taken as we entered the Pole Mountain area in Medicine Bow National Forest near Laramie, Wyoming. We had a little extra time on our 2-day drive from central Iowa to southwestern Wyoming, so we took a break from driving Interstate-80 and did some exploring here.
Nestled back in these mountains is a wonderful campground, several hiking trails and a few fishing spots. It looks like a nice place to ‘unplug’ and get out into the wilderness if you live in the Laramie (or Cheyenne) areas.
in a few hours I'll head to the airport and be in transit for the next 26 hrs or so...so time to unplug and hug my pups...
zone out...is what I do on long haul flights...ipod, thinking, a bit of reading...
take care and I'll catch up with you on the flip side...

Dude, I'm Not Saying I Don't Like You.
I'm Saying I Would Unplug Your Life Support To Make A Pot Of Coffee.
The WSOR Local needed to unplug Johnson Street yard, so they pulled the Lycon Loads out and shoved them onto the Prairie Sub and tied them down. At this spot C&NW Tower MX stood for many years directing trains.

Last walk with my friend the dog
In broad daylight
I see less than at night
Everything is now so much more beautiful
It's the night that smiles at me
Look this is me, raw
Pure...
I walk on home and
...my smile mingles with the night
The perfect spot to unplug and just watch the world go by.

Talk about things that nobody cares
Wearing other things that nobody wears
You're calling my name but I got to make clear
I can't say baby where I'll be in a year
♫ Will Wood - Um It's Kind Of A Lot ♫
And I'm afraid of damn near everything
All my life's a panic trip, a rocket ship to planet schizoid
Hold me like a tourniquet and I you like an iron maiden
I've grown used to fear, but no, not to you yet my dear oh
I love you so much it scares me half to death
I'm not used to this, how did this happen?
I love you so much it scares me half to death
The other half I guess I'm giving to you. Oh, baby
Morning view of the mountains at Cades Cove in the Great Smoky Mountain National Park. I was attracted to the sun rays breaking through the clouds.
Dans la vitrine historique du Collège, se reflète la façade monumentale de l’église Saint-Loup.
Dans cet univers hors du temps, les banquettes en bois accueillent les clients pour déguster une bière ou un café, en admirant dans les miroirs qui garnissent les murs, le décor désuet du bistrot.
Si le collège est connu pour son atmosphère, le café est aussi célèbre pour la qualité de son service. La carte est limitée mais la bière est servie dans les règles de l’art.
Les exploitants veillent à l’entretien quotidien des pompes. L’hygiène et la propreté sont au centre du service : "tous les soirs, on débranche le fût de Stella et on met l’eau sur la bière. On rince les pompes. Et chaque matin, on remet la bière en perce", " Surtout, il ne faut pas de bulle… Une mousse compacte et il faut bien couper la bière",
In the historic window of the College, the monumental facade of the Saint-Loup church is reflected.
In this timeless universe, the wooden benches welcome customers to enjoy a beer or a coffee, while admiring the outdated decor of the bistro in the mirrors that adorn the walls.
If the college is known for its atmosphere, the café is also famous for the quality of its service. The menu is limited but the beer is served according to the rules.
The operators ensure the daily maintenance of the pumps. Hygiene and cleanliness are at the center of the service: "every evening, we unplug the keg of Stella and put the water on the beer. We rinse the pumps. And every morning, we put the beer back in the bore", "Above all, you don't need bubbles... A compact foam and you have to cut the beer well",
Hey guys,
I just made a pic for the Silent Melody Photo Challenge. This unreal place is called Silent Melody, and wow—it's like autumn threw a party and invited all the colors. If you're looking for a spot to unplug and soak in some serious beauty, this place is where it's at. Get it on your list!

Let me sleep
I am tired of my grief
And I would like you
To love me, to love me, to love me
This is the night when these woods sigh
Come with me
There are people who cannot speak
Without smiling
But they would take me from your hand
Or they would try, they would try
This is the murmur of the land
This is the sound of love's marching band
And how they hold you like a gun
And how I sing you like a song
I heard when I was young
And buried for a night like this
Buried for a night like this
A little bit of bright and vibrant for a Monday.
It was a day full of meetings for me, which is never my favourite work activity so I was thankful when the clock hit quitting time and I could close the laptop and unplug the webcam.
I'd say tomorrow should be better, but I actually have more meetings scheduled. Could be another long day.
Hope everyone is doing well and staying safe.
