Heading into Winter…
…for the second time.
As fall is about to turn to winter here in Arizona, I realized that it’s our second winter for 2009, having spent the same turn of season in the southern hemisphere earlier this year in New Zealand.
The high wind and sleet don’t show in this photo of me crossing a suspension bridge high over an icy glacial torrent at Aoraki (Mt. Cook) on the South Island. A little further up the trail, the wind and weather forced us to turn around.

Also, if you haven’t checked out Kate McKinnon’s current Soul-Clearing/Exploding Pipes sale yet, do it now, before all the good stuff’s gone. And if you do check it out, know that the red pearl cluster earrings are mine (actually, Kate tells me there’s more than one pair of those).
