Thanksgiving Thoughts

“If you live the life you love, you’ll get the blessings from above.” Van Morrison

What a wonderful world we live in! I just spent a couple of days traveling the coast through Oregon and northern California to visit some friends for Thanksgiving. It was a spectacular drive, even though it was very rainy.  It was so beautiful it broke my heart. It filled my soul to overflowing and brought tears of joy to my eyes. It was a good thing it was rainy, or I never would have made it to my destination for Thanksgiving!

Wrangell Mountains, Alaska
I am very thankful for this view from my front porch!

The drive made me  reflect on my blessings. I have so much to be thankful for. I am thankful above all for the beauty in this world and the opportunities I have had to experience it. I am thankful for the love of family and friends and the kindness of strangers and acquaintances. I am thankful for my home in McCarthy, and the satisfaction my seasonal job as a ranger in Wrangell-St. Elias National Park brings me.  I am thankful for my little Toyota truck, over 250,000 miles and still going strong.

My job as a ranger is in this super cool old ghost town.

I am also thankful for a new opportunity I just found to help market my photography.  If you’re interested in getting one of my images as wall art, on a coffee mug or a tote bag, check out this link. My site here is still under construction. I have a few bugs to work out, and I am in travel mode right now, so have patience. I will continue to add images as I can.
