"Take long walks in stormy weather, or through deep snows in the fields and woods, if you would keep your spirits up. Deal with brute nature. Be cold and hungry and weary." — From Henry David Thoreau's Journal; December 25, 1856.

25 YEARS AGO: In the days following Sept. 11, 2001, an American flag was planted on a dune at the south end of Nauset Spit in Eastham. It remained there for quite some time. In the second photo, I’m holding on during a raging nor’easter.

“We should have a living relationship with nature. Some kind of relationship between man & nature is necessary to the peace of his soul, something that the Indian has. Machinery is all right as a servant, but it is poison as a master.” — Henry Beston, American Legion meeting in Quincy, Mass., 1933
