A tall coniferous tree with a 20-30 foot vertical stripe of missing bark on the trunk.
Yesterday's excitement: A lightning strike less than 100 yards from the house. I was looking out the window as it happened, watching the bark and needles fall from where it got the tree. Intense. #nature
There is no way I would have walked home after that.

do you have any idea just how badly you have to fuck up to get Canada mad at you
Don't you ever ask them why
If they told you, you would cry
So just look at them and sigh
And know they love you
And you, of tender years
Can't know the fears your elders grew by
Help them with your youth
They seek the truth before they can die
You, who are on the road
Must have a code you try to live by
And so become yourself
Because the past is just a goodbye
Teach your children well
Their father's hell did slowly go by
Feed them on your dreams
The one they pick's the one you'll know by
Stephen Stills and Graham Nash. Legends. #fireaidla

But wait, there's more. "While the look and feel of our brand is more contemporary, our refreshed brand identity reflects Walmart’s enduring commitment to both Sam’s principles and serving our customers however they need us.” #marketing
Soooo subtle and soooo expensive to implement. The before and after of Walmart's logo change: The new version on the right has slightly different blue and yellow values. The yellow star tines are slightly heavier and rounder.
My favorite part of the new #Walmart logo graphic is the CMO's quote: “This update, rooted in the legacy of our founder, Sam Walton, demonstrates our evolving capabilities and longstanding commitment to serve our customers of today and tomorrow."
