Quotes from Vincent Van Gogh
I put my heart and my soul into my work, and have lost my mind in the process.
The more I think about it, the more I realize there is nothing more artistic than to love others.
The fishermen know that the sea is dangerous and the storm terrible, but they have never found these dangers sufficient reason for remaining ashore.
Great things are done by a series of small things brought together.
There may be a great fire in our hearts, yet no one ever comes to warm himself at it, and the passers-by see only a wisp of smoke.
Conscience is a man's compass.
In spite of everything I shall rise again: I will take up my pencil, which I have forsaken in my great discouragement, and I will go on with my drawing.
What would life be if we had no courage to attempt anything?
I dream of painting and then I paint my dream.
It is better to be high-spirited even though one makes more mistakes, than to be narrow-minded and all too prudent.
The way to know life is to love many things.
Even the knowledge of my own fallibility cannot keep me from making mistakes. Only when I fall do I get up again.

Wildlife at Pawtuckaway Lake in Nottingham, NH
Kayaked at Pawtuckaway Lake this past weekend. Don't believe I've ever seen so much wildlife in one day. Highly recommend kayaking prior to the real start of boating season. Barely saw another boat until later in the day.
First animal spotted was the Common Loon. Far more impressive than pictures below indicate, it's a beautiful bird, but a bit shy. Did get a good view, however, when a large fish swam under my kayak. Moments later the Loon had a good sized fish in its mouth not far away.
The bird that seemed somewhat unconcerned with the kayak was the Blue Heron. The Blue Heron fished along the edge of the lake, snapping up some small creature, rinsing it off and eating it. The were numerous turtles sunning themselves. Most were not interested in hanging around to have their picture taken, but one stayed in his spot, as seen below.
Finally, I was paddling out of a small cove, took out my camera for a simple shot of the scenery, and a beaver hopped in the water right next to me. That is the second picture down. He slapped his tail and dove under water shortly after the picture was taken.
