The woods are lovely, dark and deep,
But I have promises to keep,
And miles to go before I sleep,
And miles to go before I sleep– Robert Frost-“Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening”
Winter on our side of the mountain
homeward
past corridors of light
and ancient guardians
out back the lights twinkle

the cattle are lowing
and who doesn’t love a Heilan Coo!!
and I just had to resurrect this from a few years ago- my brother and I with the kids up the mountain with Grieg ( one of my very faves). My brother is in Mexico this winter while we languish on the coast and the kids are now busy with their own friends!
The real action starts at 1:47 I am holding the bouncing camera and not very well but —–the joy is infectious and Little “Teg” is valkyrie crazy while I’m screaming “don’t jump!” She jumps!
To all our beautiful children
the hall of the mountain king
Wonderful! And that video is amazing … love love the music with the fun!

That’s a true statement about children. My new grandson is already four months old and I have yet to see him. They live across country. Pictures and videos just are not the same ….
