But to the eyes of imagination, nature is imagination itself" William Blake.<BR/>It's always nice to meet others who looks at the mountains (and the trees)like a kindred spirit. Did you every read Annie Dillard's "Pilgrim at Tinker Creek" - she has a lovely line about how it's safe to tell your secrets to a mountain - a mountain will keep your secrets - not like a creek. I've always loved that line. I just finished Art's Blood and now have only Old Wounds until you write another - glad I found your books they are like a home away from home.

There are usually a few copies of my books wandering around there.Vicki Lanehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08114677510459055768noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-764237570467034909.post-15220209563123341132008-07-01T04:35:00.000-04:002008-07-01T04:35:00.000-04:00I have to say I'm an autumn/winter person myself. ...I have to say I'm an autumn/winter person myself. Don't get me wrong: I love when everything turns green and flowers bloom, etc. But when the mountains bring out their autumn hues, and when we're lucky enough to have a bit of snow in winter...well, my heart just soars and I am reminded of why I'm so glad we moved to the mountains.<BR/><BR/>On another track, you mentioned in your Goodweather Report that Susan T. left a copy of one of your books in Italy for someone to discover. Along those lines, I'd like to recommend BookCrossing (http://www.bookcrossing.com/). You can register books here, put a special number in them, leave them for someone else to find then go to the site and see where it has gone. Kind of a fun idea.Susan M.

And I'm sitting under a painting I bought recently titled Verde. <BR/> The photographs are lovely, as always.Kathryn Stripling Byerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17867152753841610044noreply@blogger.com
