Surreal Experiences
You have probably been having these too: moments that remind you how strange the times are we are living in. Mark and I have been traveling to locations around Oregon for the past few years and many times we don’t see anyone else, even from a distance. The combination of covid-19 and wildfires have had a noticeable impact. If there is any positive, we have had more wildlife sightings as animals encroach into areas typically populated by happy families and tourists. These are times to document, we will be telling future generations about them.

Since we started the course, we are running across moss everywhere. It is amazing how the brain begins to see things that were always there.
