Porte Ponderings:
Maybe my favorite photos are taken when I’m wandering alone? The one I chose for today’s quote was taken early in the morning in my local conservation area. I’ve never seen a goose nesting in a tree before. She watched me carefully from her lofty perch. I later ran into another person on the trail who said the goose was also there a year ago. So I missed seeing the unique goose last year. How many other people walked past her?
I was lucky enough to go one a hike, by myself in Cuba and see the bats. No one else I was traveling with wanted to hike, let alone see bats. For me it was a unique experience. I’m glad I’m brave enough or stupid enough to hike alone. 😉
Best remembered for his role in the Partridge Family, forever young, teenage idol…..
Today would have been my Grandmother’s Birthday. She was unique, and full of life. She loved a party and to dance. She broke the rules and did it her way. ❤

Carrots. Bugs Bunny’s favorite snack. The almost perfect vegetable. Raw, in a salad, cooked or in a stew. That great orange vegetable goes with everything. It stores so well and is available fresh year round. Or frozen or canned….

Yesterday’s ice storm covered the trees and ground mercilessly. Luckily the temperatures rose and the ice melted withing a few hours. Some lives were changed forever as road conditions lead to accidents and deaths locally.
