old bones, new snow explores how words and images, poetry and photography, interact and affect one another. For more than fifteen years, I’ve been a practicing buddhist, so that inevitably seeps in here, especially in the pieces I call “Reflections,” short essays on life experience and how meditation affects various aspects of our lives. Posts on Old Bones fall into three categories: Poetry, Photography and Reflections. There’s a bit of overlap in the categories, but going forward, I intend to make the distinction clearer. I’m not the most regular “poster” and I’m not trying to sell anything. In other words, Old Bones isn’t trying to be a “content machine.” Rather, my hope is that old bones, new snow might be a quieter, saner voice in an increasingly loud and insane world.

You do have an interesting blog. I stumbled upon it and stayed on to read more and more. . .
Thanks jolio, I appreciate your taking the time, and your kind words…
Your photographs & poems are most inspiring! I grew up in Helena, Montana and my heart beats for Big Sky Country. The Centennial Valley is very dear to me. In 2006, I joined the Montana Conservation Corps for 6 months & spent 2 weeks doing trail maintenance on the Continental Divide Trail near Centennial Valley. I felt blessed to be able to see the most breathtakingly beautiful sunrises outside my tent when I woke up each morning. It was a transcendent experience that I’ll never forget. Keep up the excellent work on your blog, my friend!
Cheers,
Tyler 🙂
Tyler- many thanks for your kind words. Thanks for taking the time to share your Montana experience, I appreciate it!
