Many snowflakes = snow day 😁

My selections for #nonfictionnovember were all over the place, but I was glad to have finally read The Secret Lives of Bats and, not being a sports fan, Leveling the Ice was still a very good read. I was surprised and thrilled with how good Batman Resurrection was, and Brubaker/Philips and O'Neil were both reliably excellent in their graphic novels.

I am so enamoured by my ancestral homeland. I love seeing pictures of all the beautiful places, both urban and wild, be they new, old or ancient.

My next Scottish read.

I colored this picture and wrote this about it. 😍🥰🥵🔥❄️🥶🐺⚔️🗡️

Real snowflakes photographed in early 1900s! #BeautyBreak

When the name “Snowflake Bentley” is mentioned in Louise Penny‘s newest book, The Black Wolf, one must Google it. Was delighted to see that this first photographer of snowflakes was real and the amazing Maria Popova had written about him: https://www.themarginalian.org/2020/01/19/wilson-bentley-snowflakes/
