pickFinished.In really enjoyed reading this. I‘d like to add more to my weird collections, not animal things unless they can be got safely and without harm but more plant and rock and other oddities.

Abigail says “talk to the butt”
She is the most impossible photo subject….just won‘t sit still. My daughter has a better camera and she still wouldn‘t cooperate. Such a sweet diva!
This is the closest I have got to Barde. Poor little guy is getting more confident and trusting. He was at the back door talking (literally meowing back and forth) to Salem and Mione this morning. Still can‘t touch him, he doesn‘t trust us that much but we are making progress
Merry Festivus, to those who celebrate 🥳

All cultural histories, in one way or another.
Being the time of year it is, I couldn't resist a book about that quintessential seasonal animal that sums up the spirit of good cheer & holiday companionship: the Christmas Squid🎄🦑🎄
Lancashire legend holds that the squid climbs up the outhouse drain with its packet of gifts, which it deposits with its tentacle through the coalhouse ⬇️
Happy holidays from my family to yours. May your day be one that is gentle and kind.
Our days has been good so far. Considering my youngest wasn‘t able to sleep at all last night, not even for a short time.
This is her collection of games. I think we will be playing loads of games in the coming year.
Another morning at the hurdles at our local GP. The poor kid is so up and down with his toe after surgery. I‘d have hoped it would have healed by now but no….im getting a ton of reading done….but bid rather a kid with a healed foot.
Giving this one a go now.
A Tale Of Three Trees
One tree clinging to summer.
A second tree conceding it is time for fall.
The third tree embraces fall in red-leafed glory.
These three trees caught my attention yesterday at our local park. Each in different stage of fall, despite their close proximity to each other. 🍃🍂🍁

so-soPublished in 1901, The Desert is one of the first books that wrote about, and espoused the beauties of, (you called it) the desert. Traveling through the American Southwest, and specifically the Mojave, (an experience that probably augmented his post as art advisor to industrialist Andrew Carnegie), Van Dyke points out the vivid and stark beauty of his surroundings, or what he calls “the sublimity of the waste.”
