First snow of the year + cozy times with friends
A beautiful afternoon in the Flint Hills: bison grazing in the fields, a white horse outside the barn, my father showing off his (lack of) lasso technique. And @prairieecologist beautiful talk from yesterday’s Ecology Seminar still on my mind ?
Today is a fall day like any other day and not. Doing my best to tend to and care for people and this place we call home
Brought in the basil from the garden to overwinter, much to B’s delight 🌱✨
