Large moth I found at the Tenmile Post Office |
I've been wanting to share these pics of the this moth for ages. I had a small epiphany the other day while working on this post in my head. We have moths that live in the Sawdust Cathedral (among other startling creatures) and I want to honor their presence in our lives by sharing them with you here. So, be prepared to see a regular parade of moth images here. They are quite spectacular!

I think these pics do a fine job of portraying our last month of life as Earnie, Ellie & Myrtle Jo Efforts. There are moments when we stop and inhale, taste or feel the breath of our amazing lives together. It is delicious and momentous and we are filled with gratitude. Thank you kindly for visiting us here, in this place and we wish for you the same delicious life.
Take care, be good & kind, and do your darndest to laugh (I've been misquoting Earnie all these years),
Ellie Efforts
Love that piece of myrtlewood! The moths are amazing. I didn't know that Myrtle Jo liked water. Love you :-)
