F is for Frisbee

In front of the dining hall,
frisbees fly.
Morning, noon, and evening,
frisbees fly.
Sometimes even
frisbee players fly.

E is for Energy

Energy.
The College Staff has it.
In abundance.

D is for Drive

Beauty surrounds Ghost Ranch,
revealing itself on the journey,
inviting visitors to stop,
providing photo ops.

C is for Cross

The amphitheater provides space
for reflection,
worship,
and programming;
it also provides a reminder
of the faith
in which we are rooted.

B is for Bleach

His hair is normally the same shade as his beard.
Little more needs to be said.

A is for Arrival

The second Ghost Ranch alphabet begins.
What better place to begin than when one arrives at the ranch:
at that time, one checks in.

The main check occurs outside the office.

For the 2010 Peacemaking Conference,
participants confirmed their presence
at the Ghost House.

Two differences between this and the previous alphabet:
the pictures will include people
but
the pictures may not appear as often as daily.

More to come

“The alphabet is too short.”

So wrote my sister-in-law when “Z is for Zoom” posted in my Ghost Ranch Views alphabet.

I assured her that, while I have no plans to create new letters and extend the alphabet, my postings of Ghost Ranch pictures will continue.

I may go on hiatus for a couple of days – work has reached a busy stretch – but this good thing has not come to an end.

Next up – an a to z series of pictures that feature people. Following that, I will simply post pictures that interest me until I run out of pictures.

More will come.

See you along the Trail.

Z is for Zoom

Do hummingbirds zoom?
Flit seems the word more often used.
But watching them gather at the feeder
located behind the kitchen,
zoom seems to fit as
they engage in a delicate, high-speed ballet of flight.

Y is for Yellow

Flowers come in many colors
at Ghost Ranch.
On my anniversary,
this patch caught my eye.

X is for Xeric

xeric:

“characterized by, relating to, or requiring only a small amount of moisture

<a xeric habitat> <a xeric plant>”

Merriam-Webster

I simply recognized its beauty.

Tricia and Eric helped me learn that the word xeric can describe that beauty.
