Followed ski tracks through
fields, into the woods–eagles
kept me company.

Winter winds swirl and
declare: it’s not breakup yet.
Ice coats the driveway.

Under foot, six feet
(maybe more) of winter’s work.
Hooray for snowshoes.

Trails transformed by snow–
falling in love once again
with places I know

Turning July’s catch
into September’s jerky;
drying underway.

Great Dane looked outside
and, I swear, he whined “meh” once
he saw all that rain

Hiked across tundra;
flowers underfoot shouted
“look at me!” I did.

Cruising through to-dos–
heading to Denali in
the early morning

Paddling along,
a bald eagle swooped down just
twenty feet away

Focus keeps slipping–
thoughts of Saturday’s paddle
on Eklutna win
