Cans for Christmas

Good afternoon friends of Care and Share,

Some of you may remember Mark Ingles" light show from last year, but if you don"t, please visit this post.

Mark is back this year, and his light show is better than ever! In exchange for seeing the lights, he asks for a canned food donation that he brings to Care and Share. How cool, right?

Mark labors for 150 hours to decorate his house with thousands of lights, The house is located at 4910 Nugent Drive in Colorado Springs near Powers and Barnes roads.



Please stop by and enjoy this beautiful ode to the holidays, and remember to bring some canned food for your neighbors at risk of hunger.

Thanks for reading and happy holidays!

The Nature Fix: Our Connection to Water

What do surfers, anglers, boaters and little kids in the shallow end of the pool know that the rest of us don’t? Playing in or near water is a surefire way to access creative states of “flow,” relaxation and bliss. I once knew this—most kids do—but was reminded on a recent family trip to western Maine. To research a book I was writing about nature and the brain, I had borrowed a portable EEG cap that measures electroencephalography, or electrical activity captured in neural oscillations, better known as brain waves. Early one morning, I slipped into a kayak and paddled out onto a small lake bordering the White Mountain National Forest. The boat nosed through a foot of soft mist resting on the water’s surface. I couldn’t see my paddle blade, but I could hear its drips, and the birds on the approaching far bank.

In my case, the species has a lot to answer for, because a Thames roach was my first ever catch. Alas, how times change. These days I see fewer and fewer anglers trotting or tip fishing for roach, dace or bream. Carp and predator anglers now dominate. But what cracking sport (and vital skills!) they are missing out on in their hunt fo
