Spotlight Saturday
I’m in touch with two beautiful souls for future upcoming Spotlight Saturdays. Hopefully soon our schedules will allow us to meet for an interview. So far we’ve done three interviews with three amazing people. I hope to make this a monthly event. If you know anyone meanwhile who is dedicated to helping our neighbors who are currently between homes (and I read recently most of us are literally two paychecks away from being homeless) please let me know.

Tell Us a Story
The theme for February and ongoing throughout 2018 is “storytelling.” We are always looking for your story, poetry, photo and art submissions. Here’s the Submission Guidelines post from earlier this month: Tell Us a Story.
Changemaker JohnnyO
JohnnyO of Denver and Nicole Huguenin, (Dream Together) one of our most generous contributing photographers.
Big shout out to JohnnyO in Denver who has some amazing stories to tell (coming soon). Johnny was recently featured in Channel 9 KUSA Denver News reading one of his poems, Climb Again. When I spoke to John on Tuesday, he told me some wonderful news. He has secured a venue in Denver for two different Gallery shows which will feature the art and writings from under1000skies. One show will be in March and and the other in June. These venues are quite expensive and exclusive but Johnny was able to get the venues pro bono! This is amazing news. Johnny has been passionate about helping spread the word about under1000skies since he learned about us a couple of years ago. As more information becomes available, we’ll share it here with you. Kudos to Johnny O and deep bows of gratitude for your enthusiasm, kindness and creative vision.

“I sit beside the fire and think
Of all that I have seen
Of meadow flowers and butterflies
In summers that have been
Of yellow leaves and gossamer
In autumns that there were
With morning mist and silver sun
And wind upon my hair
I sit beside the fire and think
Of how the world will be
When winter comes without a spring
That I shall ever see
For still there are so many things
That I have never seen
In every wood in every spring
There is a different green
I sit beside the fire and think
Of people long ago
And people that will see a world
That I shall never know
But all the while I sit and think
Of times there were before
I listen for returning feet
And voices at the door”
― J.R.R. Tolkien
