The joy of waking to this view each morning is just so wonderful. Even if the camera sees all the distortions from the window screen, I easily ignore them. Many of these green trees stand near or by the Animas River which flows through the town.

Where does a drop of water go?

  A truly fascinating program where you can start anyplace and follow the eventual dispersement of that water drop.

Try it!

The actual map is much bigger than this screen shot.



Today's quote:

Simplicity is the final achievement. After one has played a vast quantity of notes and more notes, it is simplicity that emerges as the crowning reward of art. -Frederic Chopin, pianist and composer (1810-1849)

    Hello,
    Interesting map! A drop in my state of Maryland ends up in the Chesapeake Bay and eventually the Atlantic Ocean. Take care, have a happy weekend!

      I had fun going from my son's southern Colorado home (near Mesa Verde) and the drop took forever.

    These are fascinating images. There is a long video on this topic. The story of water is a complicated one.

      It sure is, and now that I'm a member of a local watershed group I'm more conscious of our many ways we pollute our waters.

    It's a kind of magic, isn't it?
