An early evening calm\u2026<\/strong><\/h6>\n

29 July 2025:<\/strong> Taking some time out to just enjoy sitting out in the backyard late into the evening. Summer nights can be steamy, but the air is good today and it is pleasant \u2026<\/p>\n

NY: Baby Bunnies\u2026<\/h5>\n

7 July 2025:<\/strong> The baby bunnies are growing and getting more independent. I think this little one is setting up “house” somewhere in my yard. It was really cute the other day when it was trying to go back to “mom” and the mother rabbit was trying to “chase” it “away” (as in “out of the nest”) and I think the little one finally settled on staying in the yard. It is surprisingly not scared of me, and was literally within arms reach when I took this photo with my phone. I hope it will be careful and cautious of other humans and live a long and happy “bunny lifetime”\u2026<\/p>\n

THIS MONTH:<\/strong>
\n
\nUSnomads.org is very proud to be presenting the fourth edition of the Nomad Overland Virtual Adventure Rally<\/a> in 2025. This is a unique kind of rally experience — a ten week event that participants can do from anywhere within the continental U.S.A. Competitors design their own routes as part of the rally, then drive it in a points-based online competition that includes optional activity tasks, quests and weekly challenges. The 2025 rally will run from 2 June – 10 August and is open to any driver within the United States who has an off-road capable vehicle — stock or modified. Registration for 2025 is currently open. For more information see the Rally website<\/a> \u2026

COMING UP SOON:<\/strong>
\n
\nTaking part in a month-long workshop that combines photography with mindfulness to enhance our capacities for observation and re-energize creativity. The workshop is about slowing down, connecting with the present moment and developing visual perception, with the goal of helping participants to explore reality from a deeper, more conscious gaze\u2026

\nReturning to the “city of light” after a way-too-long hiatus and reconnecting with friends, favorite places and some urban exploring to change things up a little bit \u2026
