free bird?

This is one of those pictures that I didn’t get at first. Then suddenly I felt its weight. There is a moment – the space of an unseen line – where freedom is still possible, however precarious, and the choices are right there in front of us. Branches? Or bars?

happy 4th!

Saved from last year’s celebration. The cones may be a bit stale by now but the sentiment never gets old:

Here’s to freedom! Everywhere for everyone.
