Thursday, May 15, 2025 The Debris is Blowing in the Wind

I don’t think Bob Dylan would mind me changing up the words to that song a little bit today. If you live in our neck of the woods, your house has been buffeted by strong winds, your trees are having a mighty swaying party, and dust clouds are obscuring the landscape. I tried to get a photo, but it was hard to get one that told the whole story. When you look at it, insert the sound effects as much as you can.

See the debris blowing in the wind?

Last night I went out to take a few photos of the sky and surroundings as the sun was setting. I wanted more color so I cheated and used the vivid setting on my camera. Let’s call it “art” instead of cheating, okay?

Oh yes, that last photo is my announcement that we’ve got our fountains running again, a harbinger of warm weather. Come and visit and we’ll sit on a bench and enjoy the ambiance. Tell me your stories and I’ll tell you mine. Deal?

I’ll probably delete this vividly in the morning.

1. My grandma used to decline to eat certain foods because they didn’t agree with her. It was all very mysterious to me when I was young and had an iron stomach. It is no longer a mystery.

2. Woke up to a beautiful misty morning recently and the first utterance out of my mouth that day was “Ooh!!” I ran down to get the camera and went out the back door. Can you ever get tired of seeing things like this? I think not.

3. Went for a long-ish hike yesterday since it was such a beautiful, balmy day. We are both looking forward to the hiking season this year, chipping away at our goal of going to every Minnesota State Park to do their Hiking Club trails. Yesterday was a bit of a warm-up and sure enough, my legs ache a little today. It’s good for me, right?

4. I watched a Dog Whisperer episode today that featured an Animal Communicator. It was hard to take her seriously. She kept saying things like “Zeus was communicating to me while he was running with Cesar and he was telling me that it was awesome!” Am I the only one who finds that kind of weird and laughable? Meanwhile, I challenge you to figure out what Luna is telling me:

On that note, I’m going to take my leave to go make pizza for supper. You can stay as long as you’d like, though. Feel free to tell me what you’ve been musing about lately. Or just tell me what you’re making for supper. That’ll do in a pinch.

I’ll probably delete this, but maybe I should ask my cat first.
