Picaresque

Picaresque is the adjective to describe writings about a common or low character who survives the pitfalls of life through luck or good fortune. My travels, interests, my animals, my photographs, my wonderful friends and family are featured.

Location: Arapahoe, Wyoming, United States

(Note: Blogs read from bottom to top; scroll down for beginnings, scroll up for most current.) After 30 years in public administration and four degrees, as well as numerous workshops with luminaries in Education and Public Policy, life in a slower lane became a goal. Most recently I have done policy writing and consulting for the Northern Arapaho and Eastern Shoshone Tribes. Mostly, I am just coasting slowly and gently downhill these days-seeking joy where I can find it before the glorious ride ends.

Annual Burning of the ChristmasTrees

The park hosts the annual burning of the Christmas Trees on the first Saturday following the New Year. Brings out the firebugs, kids, campers, and folks who want to put Christmas behind them as well the Fire Department. Pretty exciting. More fun to watch the people, almost, as fire is primal and it causes behaviors: dancing, cavorting, whooping, hollering.
