It’s the season of gamboling baby cows! A smile on my way to work in the morning. And would I be frowning if they were gambling instead? Obviously, that would depend on how they pulled it off. Card-playing cows are difficult to frown at.
(I wanted to draw you a picture of a goat hiding up in a tree (in order to escape piranhas), but it seems that even that is outside my capabilities at this present time.)
They painted the plane orange! and then very green and gooey, like something out of Ghost Busters. Then the landing gear proceeded to cackle menacingly as we took off. (My daughter says the plane is now French.)

Sometimes ice canyons on the side of the street are kinda cool looking. But, I have to say, they’re super extra cool looking when you’ve had a healthy dose of geology and/or planetary-science classes, and so are imagining you’re staring down at something like a diorama of another planet.

And so, I’ve come up with an idea! What sort of prompt might require not very many…
Well, the New Year is almost upon us, and so it’s time again that I’d like to look back at the year and see what I did with this blog and website in 2024. I did the same thing last year (which you can see here if you’d like) and, because I am lazy, I think I’ll stick to the same format as last time. Then, anyone who wants to do a side-by-side comparison of the two years (or am…
I walk south through the parking lot at the end of the day, and this week the twilight-silhouetted mountains and the crescent moon have been keeping me company.
