Holy camoley. Look at that spin. On another post, CNN said "rare category 5". Is it really that rare anymore? 40" of rain over 4 days. Oh Jamaica, hold on for dear life. 🙏 🙏

I think we all need to take a minute or two to pray for Jamaica as they face the brutal face of Hurricane Melissa. No parties. No politics. Just humans praying for humans. 🙏🙌💗

A photo of a telephone pole, wires leading across and back. The tops of three pine trees can be seen in the bottom center 10% of the frame. A Japanese Maple takes up the bottom right corner. The photograph is mostly sky, largely filled with clouds. The sun is apparent behind the pine tree tops, setting. A few blocks of blue poke through the clouded sky.

If you zoom way way in on the first image, below an electrical wire crossing the sky, a large line formation of Canadian geese are flying by. Having lost the V-shape, the line is a loose arc, a rounded check mark.

Gooseneck barnacles letting us take a peek at what's #inside.

Silver-shelled with yellow edges gooseneck barnacles affixed to a bright blue float that sat on the sea surface for a year. They are large and aptly named. A large cluster or hundreds of organisms surround the underside of the float, this photo only shows a small portion.

Underneath The Spreading Chestnut Tree

An abundance of seeds and nuts on my walks at the moment. It’s a “mast year” when trees and shrubs produce an unusually large crop.

A close-up of an open chestnut burr showing two glossy brown chestnuts nestled inside. The spiky green shell surrounds the smooth nuts, and blurred autumn leaves are visible in the background.

How much is Trump demolishing the East Wing about wanting his tacky new ballroom (permits be damned!) and how much is it about being *really angry* about the turnout for the "No Kings" rallies?

Demolition begins to replace White House East Wing with Trump’s ballroom | CNN Politics

Demolition of the White House East Wing began Monday as President Donald Trump adds a $200 million, 90,000-square-foot ballroom.

My socks for the occasion.
A gift who's day had arrived.

Black socks with orange-yellow toes and heel. The socks have a flower pattern with lots of zaggy-cool stems in green, flowers in yellow and red and a greenery bubble with the words.

In Maine, 4 hydroelectric dams are being sold to conservationists, paving the way for the largest river-restoration effort in US history. The deal could reopen hundreds of kilometres of spawning habitat for endangered Atlantic salmon and other migratory fish. buff.ly/caYUFYa
