I’m re-posting a photo that was taken at Durand Glacier, British Columbia, a number of years ago and I hope it will bring a smile to your face despite all the swirling uncertainty.
Perhaps we can use this time of social distancing and social isolation to regain an appreciation not just for each other, but for our beautiful earth as well.
I wish good health to all of you who read this post. Be kind to each other.
We're falling down the rabbit hole at warp speed a toilet paper trail behind us. The Cheshire Cat would be welcome as characters more ominous than any from Tenniel enter our daily lives. The Horsemen prance in the shadows - not since the Spanish flu have so many visions danced in their heads.

Blizzard white streets line our city sifted with fear. Blue skies above hiding enemy breath ready to attack unsuspecting hosts. Our homes once lively and vibrant withdraw to silent lemon scent lysol war zones. Ninty per cent alcohol for our hands hands that touch and hold caress and scratch tap and text. Our worst foe bringing havoc to the center of our lives. But people are people. Evening dusts computer screens with song. People reach people across balconies across seas half a world apart isolated but not alone people connect. Puccini's "Nessun Dorma" soars "we will be victorious."
This is the view out my window this morning. -4C and light snow.
One year ago this is what we were experiencing at the beautiful Kuekenhof Gardens in the Netherlands.
