Went out for a longer walk today, almost 6 000 steps. Brilliant sunshine so no need for a jacket today. Here are some of the plants I saw along the way.
A pretty bindweed. There were impressive clusters of bindweed on some dead tree branches but they were too far off the path into the undergrowth to get a good picture using my mobile, I should take my Canon with me more often.
An evening primrose
Life will find a way even growing on rocks
Lush vegetation beside the ditch between the path and the field
And here is one of my favourite plants, pineapple mayweed
@turbineman40 You are welcome to visit! None of those plants are part of any home landscaping. They are just wild plants found beside the path as I walked just outside the little town I live in.
@ninalanyon oh that's great. I will just have to find a place to go walking. The street in front of my house is to busy to walk along. There is no sidewalk here.
@Carazaa The risk I had in mind was that someone I know might see the pictures and recognize who I am. It never occurred to me that anyone might do me physical harm as a result, that seems so unlikely as to not be worth thinking about.
Strictly speaking, in statistical jargon terms it's actually the hazard I suppose, the risk is the probability that the hazard actually occurs. The risk is very low I think, and the hazard is more that it would complicate my life rather than that I would come to physical harm.
Just started on the boxes of things to post for sale online. I use the last two digits of the id number that the site generates to tell me which box to store it in so I can find it again. On the third item I couldn't find the box for it and then realized that there are four boxes of things that have already been posted but of course haven't been reactivated. That's very annoying, I have even more to do than I thought!
@Carazaa Glad you like it. But I think that most people live surrounded by beauty that they simply ignore or don't notice. I think of the opening lines to Blake's Auguries of Innocence:
To see a World in a Grain of Sand And a Heaven in a Wild Flower Hold Infinity in the palm of your hand And Eternity in an hour
