A Winter Snow in Autumn By The Cranberries River...

I was in Patagonia as the leaves were turning colors for the fall, and on the edge of the glacial zone of the Andes, it could snow at any time.

I had camped in a very picturesque little forest to get away from the wind and the elements. We were pretty close to a river, which was nice to listen to while I slept. Note that I wasn't in a tent since I had removed myself from Yuri's tent for the sake of sanity and sleep.

Cool I just learned about Kelty tents, thank you! :)

Luckily my sleeping bag was rated for negative 10 degrees, so I stayed snug.

It's comin’ on Christmas,
They're cuttin’ down trees.
They're puttin’ up reindeer,
Singin’ songs of joy and peace.
Oh, I wish I had a river,
I could skate away on.

But it doesn't snow here,
It stays pretty green.
I'm gonna make a lot of money,
And then I'm gonna quit this crazy scene.
Oh, I wish I had a river,
I could skate away on.

Chorus
I wish I had a river so long,
Teach my feet to fly high
Oh, I wish I had a river,
I could skate away on.
I made my baby cry.

He tried hard to help me,
You know, he put me at ease.
And he loved me so naughty,
Made me weak in the knees.
Oh, I wish I had a river,
I could skate away on.

But I'm so hard to handle,
I'm selfish and I'm sad,
Now I've gone and lost the best baby,
That I ever had.
Oh, I wish I had a river,
I could skate away on.

Chorus
Oh, I wish I had a river so long,
I would, teach my feet to fly high
Oh, I wish I had a river,
I could skate away on.
I made my baby say goodbye.

It's comin’ on Christmas,
They're cuttin’ down trees,
They're puttin’ up reindeer,
And singin’ songs of joy and peace.
Oh, I wish I had a river,
I could skate away on.

(see it larger here! )
The next morning when I woke up, a gentle snow was falling all around. The inner sanctum of the forest was green and warm while snow started piling up on the edges of the trees. It all looked too perfect, so of course I had to set up for a shot to bring it home to y'all!

Family keeps sending me emails...as far as time guidelines...love...I don't think there's any time limit...I thought I could share with you

Feng Shui

This is without a doubt one of the nicest good luck forwards I have received. Hope it works for you -- and me!

You have 6 minutes

There's some mighty fine advice in these words, even if you're not superstitious. This Lotus Touts has been sent to you for good luck from the Anthony Robbins organization (I've heard about this guy...but never attended his workshops before...is it good? I just heard his talk, it was pretty inspiring, Anthony Robbins says always give...nice...he was just on Ted Talks, I heard about Ted Talks from SIC first, 18:00 - 19:30 is when I started getting teary-eyed...I have no opinion on the past past election..I'm just an outsider looking in, observing...it was meant to be I guess...) It has been sent around the world time and again.

It must leave your hands in 6 MINUTES. Otherwise you will get a very unpleasant surprise. This is true, even if you are not superstitious, agnostic, or otherwise faith impaired.
