Good morning. 📚📖☕ 16 March 2026 Yesterday, Charlie and I made a Goodwill run, which means it’s time to start filling the box again. By “box,” I mean the large cardboard catch‑all in the laundry room where we toss things we no longer use but someone else might. I also drop in those little trinket gifts charities send. I never use them. Mailing labels are the lone exception — those I’ll keep. While I was at it, I pulled a couple of old technical books off my bookcase and tossed them in the back of the truck. This morning, I want to tackle the bookcase itself and finally fit the novels that have been lounging around the house back into it. I keep telling myself I should take a break from buying new books and reread some of the ones I already own. But how does one resist a new release from a favorite author? C’est la vie. Maybe what I really need is a bigger bookcase. I do wonder if keeping books counts as hoarding. It would certainly explain the little piles that keep appearing in my office. I mean, what do you do with a book you’ve just finished? You put it on the bookcase — or, if there’s no room, you put it next to the bookcase. Then the next one joins it, and the next, and so on. Eventually you look at the growing stack and think, Well, I really need to do something about that. And so it becomes out with the old and in with the new. My library has been slowly shifting from books of knowledge to books that entertain. After all, I’m done with all that going‑to‑work business. Life isn’t about what I need to know anymore — it’s about what I want to know. “Reading books is good. Rereading good books is better.” — Lawrence Clark Powell “A room without books is like a body without a soul.” — Cicero “One glance at a book and you hear the voice of another person… To read is to voyage through time.” — Carl Sagan #photo #photography #photographer #photographylovers #nature #plants #books #library #life

From my garden... The tall flowers are phlox and shorties are day lilies. The pic was taken early in the morning just as the sun was rising. The colors are very intense. #bloomscrolling #nature #plants #garden #gardening

Our clematis did really well this year. This was probably the best it's looked since we got it... #BloomScrolling #Plants #Flowers

Dense #AquaticPlants kept Spree River levels steady despite a near 50% flow drop https://phys.org/news/2026-02-dense-aquatic-spree-river-steady.html paper: https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0022169425022231 "aquatic #plants can compensate for declining water levels in a drier #climate. In recent summers, their growth in the lower part of the Spree has led to an increase in water levels. They retain water not only in the riverbed, but also in the adjacent floodplain aquifers, thereby stabilizing the water balance and protecting important floodplain moorland areas."

Good morning. ☕☕☕ 19 February 2026 The grandfather clock has just announced that it’s nine o’clock. You know, I’ve gone more than seven decades saying “o’clock” without ever stopping to think about what it literally meant. I finally looked it up: it’s shorthand for “of the clock.” You’d think I would have known that, but I honestly didn’t. Nobody ever says, “It’s nine of the clock,” do they? I don’t recall a teacher—or anyone else—ever explaining it. It was just one of those things you absorbed: you picked the hour, like nine, and added “o’clock” to signal that you were talking about time. There are things I don’t remember learning, and others I remember clearly. One of my earliest memories is of a small chalkboard I had as a child. I would pretend to write the way I saw my parents do. Only scribbles came out, of course, but maybe that was the beginning. Maybe I sensed that their marks carried meaning, or maybe I didn’t, but I imitated them all the same. That memory is vague but still there. I must have been younger than five but older than two—so probably three or four. Somewhere along the way I picked up some rudimentary math skills too. God bless the teachers. I have three granddaughters who all want careers in education. One is already a college counselor, and the other two are in college, each preparing to teach grade school. What would we do without teachers. “We learn by example and by direct experience because there are real limits to the adequacy of verbal instruction.” — Malcolm Gladwell “A teacher affects eternity; he can never tell where his influence stops.” — Henry Adams “The world is full of magic things, patiently waiting for our senses to grow sharper.” — W.B.
