Day 2: Grabbed breakfast at the local diner down the valley. The owner was changing 45 records in the 1960s jukebox. This place hasn’t changed a lot since the 1930s. William Least Heat-Moon judged the small town diner by the number of local calendars on the wall. Me, I look to the pie case. @itomyde …
Day 2: Our Oasis in the Storm: The light here is weird today – soft, orange – as smoke from massive wildfires on the other side of the state creeps in, a reminder that all areas on this marble are connected. And tomorrow that’s where I’m headed, Okanogan County in Eastern Washington. The climate and …
Day 2: How many photos do I have of this tree? Only a few miles from my home, this old grandfather still stands, apparently majestic enough that not even the logging company could cut it down. This valley was once filled with trees like this but now only this old Douglas Fir remains as a …
Day 1: The Tree by the General StoreWe live pretty far out. The Satsop Valley in Washington State is sparsely populated. More than 90 percent of the land is in commercial timber production.The nearest store is a 15-minute drive up the valley to the “town” of Matlock. I go to the store to buy things …

Day 10: It’s here where the ocean guided me away from my sorrow. Imagining life as a wild discovery and it has become just that. Words are unnecessary, they have become to enormous to deliver, just as the waves that fall overhead. The beauty of the next wave is edging ever closer. This is @amber_hockeborne …
Day 10: The beauty of San Francisco is being steps from your door easily seeing the same people, almost everyday. By taking a moment to stop and connect with your neighbors, you can open the door to a beautiful story of love and life. I will continue to lead with open heart – here in …
Day 9: Closing my eyes, I can feel the ocean – heavy rolling waves seem to crash in all directions. I take today with me, as I drift away into sleep. This is @amber_hockeborne and my love affair with San Francisco and Ocean Beach is ever growing.
