a beautiful shell for all to see
A few cups of coffee, a weekend of walking under evergreens by waterfalls, and hospitality given and received. Among the processing of the messedupness, there is time to laugh and just be, safe in the presence of others with whome there's history of one kind or another without needing to feel like I need to hide beneath the coils, swirls and twists.
Oh, Old Scratch, you great deceiver, and creator of this hideous captcha. Hope you got some swanky shots before the camera gave up the ghost.
