Day 259 of Week 37, September 2023

 

Creeping Smartweed (Persicaria longiseta)

The location of the random photograph is a mystery to me. Taken in 2014, I see a piece of blue braided strap, a chunk of red sandstone, and, a  dry leaf in the center that looks like a duck. The dark area is a deeper crack the red sandstone leans over.

Big landscapes leave out the small things we are closer to. The amount of feeling we have for the outdoors, the large and small views, I feel, doesn't differ widely. I believe our need to connect to Nature is one size fits it all.

Have a naturally wondrous weekend!

I just realized my change to the default font on this blog to the Delius font works! I went into the HTML page, found the header where the font I chose is, and changed it to Delius. I realize it work because the comments are also in the Delius font.

Today here in the upper westside of Vermont the weather is partly sunny with eastward moving clouds in synch with a swaying the trees wind. Perfect for a day at Addison County Field Days. I'd love to be there.

Alas, after weeding yesterday, in not a good posture, I greet this lovely day with an ibuprofen breakfast to take the edge of a very sore lower back. I'm reminded that I haven't done my stretching exercise routine in months. 

It has been an interesting week starting off with great anticipation to receive a package. UPS delivered it Monday, and the post office returned to sender the next day despite a correct post office box address. Mistakes happen.

What I learned is this...the more I look forward to something, the higher the probability something will go wrong. Natural disappointment is a part of life. Like weird weather, I guess there are things to get use to. 

Have a Great Exercising Weekend!
