Photo from last Tuesday night. Kind of dark, and I was in a hurry. But it’s pretty cool.

Peach Merle. This was an amazing place to visit.

I was in college astronomy when this launched.

From an astronomy professor about the recent lunar eclipse. The photo was taken FROM THE MOON.

The people who want to invade Greenland are the same ones who think it’s too cold to go outside for an inauguration.

I’ve passed this statue many times. Thankful that now I know who it is. Befitting that it’s location is by the library.

Just putting this out there. No reason.

Mood.

I mean just how does one auction off a dinosaur skeleton. And who buys this? Hopefully a museum somewhere.

Japanese literature. The latest book I’m reading. It’s not only about tea, but the importance of tea in culture.

The actual Woolly Mammoth rock, per my previous post.

That is absolutely fantastic!

This also interested me. It’s a beautiful hike to get to the mammoth rocks. There are depressions throughout the Sonoma valley.

I was researching the source of the volcanic soil present in the local vineyards and came across this. I had no idea that the worlds largest geothermal facility is in my backyard.

I started studying art history and haven’t been able to get beyond Mesopotamia. From the library of Ashurbanipal.

Great listening for this incredibly wet rainy day.

Two on the list are where I have worked for. I still have a couple bottles from my allotment.

Blue Lagoon Iceland

It’s pouring here, I’m happy to be inside.

I think we are the only ones who are going to comment on here. Nice photo.

Read an interesting article today on Aristotle. Always interesting to gain knowledge on Alexander’s tutor. From this article I learned the meaning of dexter, and subsequently, sinister.

We went to lunch and ordered a cider. This is what they served. We later found it at the local market, and that it is from a local taproom, which we are looking forward to visiting. This is a refreshing alternative to wine if you have the desire to try it - it’s very tasty.

This platform is not easy to be on. There is no dialog, only forwarded items from other people’s posts. I’m trying to avoid politics being shoved my face. I’m not in denial about what’s going on, but there are other interests to indulge in and not allowing someone to tell me what to think. Peace!
