Update about blogCa

Who knew all this would happen afterwards! The view out my window Oct. 30, 2024. They all fall down...autumn leaves decided last night it was time to let go!

Near the dam


A lone fisherman...sitting at the base of the dam on Lake Tomahawk.


Looking below the dam (as I walked around the lake) someone has started a fire...perhaps at the Veteran's VFW bar.

There were more cars parked there when I came by earlier. On my way home, only one car is still out front. But there's no more smoke from that chimney.


Plus...an update on some of my indoor plants...

The little fairy sits on the edge of a planter I made, which houses also (besides the fairy) a lavender plant which I've left on the balcony for the past 3 months. Somehow it still received enough sun and rain, and didn't get frozen solid, so I felt sorry for it and brought it inside to the living room windowsill.
I also cut back a lot of the branches, so it might not shed all over the place. I put the cuttings over the dirt as mulch.

The other plant in a similar planter is the Rosemary. It also seems to have survived early winter, so I rescued it as well.


Today's Quote:

The intersection of the macro universe and the micro universe will create a gate, or a door. Lao Tzu called this “the door to all wonders.” 

This is where yin and yang merge harmoniously. 
This is also called the Middle Way.

    1. It may be a lot like meditating...which I do daily. I haven't fished in that method, but have tried to do so in a boat elsewhere...no luck however.
