For 13 years I have had the privilege to get to know a part of the desert southwest of Tucson, Arizona. I grew up in a very different place, with different plants, different sky, and different spirits. Yet, I love this land for it has adopted me.
In these last days of 2012, I felt called to share my drum with the land that has opened to me slowly each year, to thank it for all the kindnesses shown in every season. I have seen sudden and subtle changes occur in this sacred place. These images were taken by me, with self-timer on my camera. I propped the camera on the ground, and then 10 seconds later these images were captured, then I drummed. Thank you place.
Each of us has an indigenous heart, even if we are far away of our ancestors. Love the land where you are.
Lucky lovely land to have you and Joseph as sacred caregivers!
