“Zen is less the study of doctrine than a set of tools for discovering what can be known when the world is looked at with open eyes.”

Jane Hirshfield, The Heart of Haiku

I was surprised to see the dusting of snow and fog this morning. So I took the long-cut to the coffee shop via Stuart Street to visit the cottonwood tree at the Fisher Nature Area Trail. If you look closely you will see a red tailed hawk in the top of the cottonwood. Fog has burned off as blue sky and sunshine make their appearance. Have a wonderful Saturday and look with open eyes!
