Always fun seasonal photography from friends up north.

And today in the Piney Woods.

Pampas Grass in full bloom.  A favorite of mine.

Cellphone holder. Had to take a photo. Simple design and function. Great idea for homemade Christmas presents.

Note hole for charging chord.

TV SERIES REVIEWS

RIVER 

A 2015 British mystery series: 6 episodes. 

I am not a fan of mystery series but my wife kept saying that this series received 100% Rotten Tomatoes review. She suggested we at least give it an episode or two. We did. What hooked me and kept me through those first two episodes was the actress, Nicola Walker. I had not seen her before. 

After those two episodes, I was in for the full series. Excellent story telling and excellent acting. I agree for once with Rotten Tomatoes. Give this series a try. Free on Prime.

SPOOKS

An MI-5 spy drama. 2002 through 2011; ten seasons. We are in season three and find the writing and acting improving through every episode. Stories and characters constantly evolving. Give this series a few episodes and see what you think. Free on Prime.

JIBBER JABBER

Quiet Days. 

September is steady, one day at a time in the passing.  

I am not putting much energy these days into most of what I read and nothing I hear in a news event. I have spent most of my life being able to rely on news reports and stories to know what is going on the world. But for the past several years and surely everyday now, I trust not. Sad, I think, but have found this necessary for mental sanity and not getting constantly caught in some rabbit hole. At the end of the day I think that we are going to have to go through what lies ahead. I do not know what that will look like, but do believe I will recognize "it."

"Starbuck, Galactia! What do ya hear?"

Appreciate the visit this week. Have a good week.
