Podaxis is a genus of secotioid fungi in the family Agaricaceae. Species, which have the appearance of a “stalked-puffball”,
have a worldwide distribution, and tend to be found growing solitary or scattered on sandy soils,
especially in arid regions. Although close to 50 species have been described, it has been argued that many
of them may represent extremes in the natural range of variations found in Podaxis pistillaris. — Wikipedia

I hold no preference among flowers,
so long as they are wild, free, spontaneous.

Let Us Build Bridges 1 comment
Selma, Alabama is the Ninth Poorest City in Amarica Per Capital (August 10, 2021)
Selma Gave America the Right to Call Itself A Democracy
We still have many bridges to CROSS,
So come on ya’ll and LET US!
Let us start, Yes you and me
With a simple and easy decree,
To do something simple, EVERYDAY,
To uplift Ourselves and Our Families,
In small, Nugget-size Ways!
So,
When STONES are THROWN to Slay
Us ALL,
We Must, We WILL, We SHALL, build
bridges instead of walls!
And so,
We catch their stones and build
bridges of Respect and LOVE for
Ourselves, Our Families, and ALL
Communities who share this World!
We catch their stones and build
bridges because, EVERYONE
matters equally in the World!

It’s often found in the most unlikely places.

Vermont Covered Bridge — Photo-Artistry by kenne
The Taftsville Covered Bridge is a timber-framed covered bridge which spans the Ottauquechee River
in the Taftsville village of Woodstock, Vermont. Built in 1836 and exhibiting no influence from patented bridge
designs, it is among the oldest remaining covered bridges both in Vermont and the nation as a whole.

Cut Saguaro Ten Years Out 3 comments
I took this image in September 2011 while on my first Sabino Canyon Volunteer Naturalists (SCVN) nature walk.
I was so appalled that someone cut off the top of this young (probably 35-40 years old) saguaro cactus.
Sadly, over the years, I have frequently seen this type of vandalism.

so that each small piece of her fabric reveals
the organization of the entire tapestry.

Dog Eaten Purse Strap: A Follow-up Leave a comment
Missing Dog Eaten Purse Strap — Image by kenne
Recently I reblogged a post from 2009 of granddaughter Katelyn and myself, who we visited on our road trip stop in Houston.
The reblog had the following preface:
“Yesterday, we visited David, Janie, and Katelyn in their new home before going out to dinner.
Unfortunately, I didn’t take any new photos distracted by the running dialog of trying to share
everything that has happened over the past two years and the not-expected destroying of Joy’s
leather purse by one of their dogs. So, I will add that she is a beautiful young woman about
to start her senior year in high school.”
Since daughter Katie follows my blog, she texted a recent image of her and Katelyn taken when she visited Kately, Janie, and David in July.
