I looked at their website, they have an amazing selection of some really cool items. I will remember it for the future when I buy some presents for people.

I wish that the government of China would stop bullying crew from civilian fishing boats from Vietnam and the Philippines and other nations. I wish that their government would stop bullying the Uyghurs.

Damp air of winter.
Blue peeking between the clouds.
I take a deep breath.

Haiku from 2007

Trees in the winter
strong, solid, awaiting spring
when leaves will appear.

From 2015:

Windy sunny day
Sunlight creating shadows
Early September

From 2015:

Light gray cloudy skies.
Gentle winds blowing branches.
Rain is possible.

Another haiku from 2015:

Cool and misty autumn
The sky is gray and cloudy
Now there is no breeze.

From 2015:

Flying in a V
Seven Canadian geese
Autumn Equinox

A haiku I wrote in 2015:

Ever changing sky
Puffy clouds of gray and blue
While the sun sets.
