I’ve been in Ottawa for about two months, renovating the condo we own in order to rent it out, and never intended to stay this late in the year. I still have to drive west across the US, back to Oregon to start renovating our new house there. The snowfall gives a swift kick in the butt to get on the road, and a little anxiety about what it’s going to be like driving through the mountains.

…Heaven’s in our hearts…
Excerpt from “Heaven’s Here On Earth” by Tracy Chapman from her CD, “New Beginnings”:
Heaven’s here on earth
in our faith in humankind
in our respect for what is earthly
in our unfaltering belief in peace and love and understanding.
I’ve seen and met angels wearing the disguise of ordinary people leading ordinary lives,
filled with love compassion forgiveness and sacrifice.
Heaven’s in our hearts.

Fire Ants on the Crepe Myrtle tree, Lewisville TX

Fire Ants on the Crepe Myrtle tree, Lewisville TX. This photo does not represent life-sized fire ants, thankfully! I’m a bare-footer, so here in Texas I’ve adapted to getting stung at least once a day. These ants are everywhere in the south, year-round, and there is no eradicating them…you can only discourage them from growing colonies in certain areas; they just move from one location to another. It’s said that if you have fire ants in your yard you don’t get termites.Counting blessings then, I’d much rather have the ants.
