To be lost to the flow of the river

"Study how water flows in a valley stream, smoothly and freely between the rocks. Also learn from holy books and wise people. Everything - even mountains, rivers, plants and trees - should be your teacher."

Morihei Ueshiba, 1883-1969

The Toller scream

Chris decided fishing was in order and the subsequent serenity that comes when the line in cast into the blue and the fisherman can sit and ponder nothing or something.

For those who do not know the Toller screams when excited. While Smudge does not quite get into the full scream (below) she in definitely warming up.

Chris can be seen on the rocks trying to find that serenity.
