30.09.2025 05:12 โ ๐ 0 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0Looks exactly like a stream we have nearby

28.09.2025 05:08 โ ๐ 0 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0This is just lovely. I am so enjoying our little chats! So here is one for you too. Taken from my garden
28.09.2025 04:49 โ ๐ 0 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0Thatโs very nice! Here is my sundial in my garden. It needs some cleaning in about a week or two, after our main winter rains has gone. I am busy making a couple of sundials too.
28.09.2025 04:46 โ ๐ 0 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0Clocks are another one of my interests. Also sundials!
27.09.2025 05:04 โ ๐ 0 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0What a lovely image. It embodies all that we both love in nature.
27.09.2025 05:03 โ ๐ 0 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0I am a diehard Pet Clark fan. Also all the ones you mention plus songs like Piano Manโฆ I grew up in the era of the Beatles and all those amazing new musical ideas. They still get to me
26.09.2025 04:45 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0Yes, agree with feeling. We love to walk in nature and luckily we have many great walks in our area. Always uplifting, soothing, calming and inspiring. Just to breathe the mountain or sea air is restoring. Sending hugs. ๐ฟ๐๐๐๐จ
26.09.2025 04:42 โ ๐ 0 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0Likewise Pipa. I am so glad to have met you here.
26.09.2025 04:39 โ ๐ 0 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0A big tree once kept me sane during a dark time. Luckily long ago now. But I have never forgotten
25.09.2025 05:30 โ ๐ 0 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0I totally agree. I love reading almost anything. Fiction takes your mind to different worlds. Non-fiction stimulates the mind. Both keep your mind open.
25.09.2025 05:29 โ ๐ 0 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0So true
25.09.2025 05:26 โ ๐ 0 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0A drawing, not mine (!) of a Baobab tree. A majestic and magnificent tree common in the far north of my country and well known where I used to live.
It has many useful properties besides looking wonderful. Picture it in a thorn scrub setting
It certainly looks it
25.09.2025 05:21 โ ๐ 0 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0That is spot on. Where I live, we still have that freedom. But it is certainly being eroded so much in so many places.
We have so few good leaders it seems to me. Only people interested in power and wealth

25.09.2025 05:18 โ ๐ 0 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0From your lips! Do you remember that song โSan Franciscoโ from the 60s? Probably before your time! But the same sentiment. I have never seen such a lack of humanity, a lack that seems to go unchecked, no consequences. The mountains, clouds, the sea, what we call โthe bushโ are wonderful antidotes!
25.09.2025 05:17 โ ๐ 0 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0Thanks. I shall look with interest.
25.09.2025 05:13 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0I am really enjoying your pictures. Very uplifting
25.09.2025 05:13 โ ๐ 0 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0Wow! That is both breathtaking and beautiful. Clouds are also a fascination of mine. Lovely image. ๐๐ค๐ฑ๐๐ฟ๐
25.09.2025 05:12 โ ๐ 0 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0Looks just wonderful, Pipa. I can understand you love for it. It is also so good that you actively do appreciate it. Sending hugs.
25.09.2025 05:07 โ ๐ 0 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 1 ๐ 0the most important thing to remember when you see eugenicists who donโt believe that autistic people should exist rambling about โthe autism epidemicโ is not that theyโre wrong about the โcauseโ (although they are absolutely wrong about it); itโs that they are eugenicists
