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.

It is so inspiring

It is so inspiring when one's own great literature spawns other great works of Art. Denis was moved to create this imaginative work based on my blog entry of last week. It incorporates a Pileated Woodpecker and his conception of a lesbian (not that there is anything wrong with that) Park Ranger. In point of fact, the original observed person was blonde, short, squarely trim, somewhat elfin, with a fetching rip in her tan cargo pants just below the right buttock. She was mid -Jodie Foster /Drew Barrymore in appearance but she was totally John Wayne in language and demeanor. Her compadre was more Cher, tall, italianate, but no vegetarian as it was my misfortune to use the facilities after she did.
