Nice tan, Chan.

For sure, one of the best autobiographies I have read.
Try this Life and then We Gotta Get Outa This Place by an animal or a bird, one.

The view down the avenue from Union Point.

Killing some time waiting for the bus.
I had the whole hog for breakfast.
I penned this last night while the moon was directly above, more or less.
Moonyanna
Bridal night on Bridalveil Creek
the legend of Tis-sa-ack
http://www.sacred-texts.com/nam/ca/lly/lly28.htm
the legend of Po-ho-no
http://www.sacred-texts.com/nam/ca/lly/lly29.htm
The orb and the dome come together and kiss.
Long-lost cousins or a maybe just a loving couple?
The granite dome is three-quarter orb to begin with, in a way of seeing which is perfectly natural.
Oh, Diana.
Oh, the Lizzes.
Oh, Tis-sa-ack.
Oh, North Dome.
Oh, three-Starr King.
Oh, old Po-ho-no.
Oh, papoose.
Oh, don’t you all moon-dance on the same night.
I can’t be in two places at once.
Not when I’m right here in the center of the universe.
Did God plan when He created?
He should not have had to, being who He is.
But move over here, it’s the center of MY universe, a skewed vision of the real, maybe more real, I can't tell.
So this can happen, though not on the same night, of course:
This kissing of former planetary cousins, at one time one being.
It is illusion, practiced by the lens-man, who plans both illustration and illusion.
There is no kissing of Luna and Rock in reality.
It is simply a nice conceit.
It’s good, though.
I guess He could have gotten it better, if He did plan; it is all part of the mystery of the universe.
I just think I might want to carry this night around in my wallet as a memento.
Along with the one that’s already there of the Golden Arches and the Liz and my self.
It will help me remember my universe belongs to the one who made me.
Or is it the other way ‘round, do you think?
Cue "Knights in White Satin" by the Moody Blues.

To top grasshoppers in the long jump, relative to their body length or height, an average adult male human would have to soar a distance of nearly 90 feet
In this study, we compared the morphology, jump performance and lactate production of twenty species of female grasshoppers ranging in size from 0.2 to 7.0 g to determine whether interspecific scaling of jump performance followed vertebrate or ontogenetic grasshopper models
http://www.fasebj.org/cgi/content/meeting_abstract/21/6/A1398-b
Very white men can jump, but I think they are better at guitar.

Vernal's Easter than Yosemite Falls, Upper Case, lower case, and the Casecades, as well as Yosemite West, and lost more. I can't say for Yosemite Yeast, there's a bad moon a-risin'.
In obscurity is pride rekindled--we never change.
No Hamm for Easter.
Bow our heads, remove our hearts.
Hope he rests in peaceful parts.
Under a rock or in the sky.
Randall Hamm was quite a guy.
Peace, Gypsy and Ariel, in year thirty.

hey there say, mouse.... love those mulberry trees...
i tried to grow one from twig... did not work though...
will try again, when i can... there is a huge one, near corner where i used to live... but:
my neighbor where i used to live, just a few blocks away, by the way... well, she had the best one ... it hung in her yard, from the neighbor, but, sadly, said folks cut it down for being a 'too messy tree'... :(
love the neat pic of your mom...
my mom had a similar type outfit? well, perhaps not the print'exact, but it was so neat to see her pic, too...
not sure if i can ever find it though... it may be in her house...
thanks for sharing, made me think of my mom, :)

Trees of a deciduous nature are more apt metaphorically for living. Pines are not. --Life is a Fruitlesss Quest for Mulberry Tea in the San Jaoquin, a lurkette's email to me
http://www.ehow.com/facts_5589358_fruitless-mulberry-tree_.html
Don't try to use the leaves of the fruitless mulberry for tea unless you like adventure. Just cuz I ain't did it don't mean you shoudn't or maybe should try it. I found raking fruitless mulberry leaves quite a chore. I hung for many slothful hours from ours watching the ships go sailin', somewhere beyond the sea...tryin' to be cool in the shade like an upside-down thermometer hangin'.
I just realized...ChristO's fence is due to open in less than an hour. Work to do.
