Thanks. And thanks for stopping by. I think I will keep the avatars — they make it seem more homey here, don’t you think?

I enjoyed these, too. What Dick said.

Thanks, Dick. I’ve been taking fewer actual snapshots lately, wanting to get back to poetry a bit. I’m glad you think these are successful.

By the way, congratulations on leaving the 10,000th comment at Via Negativa! (Or at least the 10,000th since April 1, 2006, when I moved from Blogger.)

That does sound entrancing. I’m not sure I’ve ever seen that, but it’s been years since I’ve flown.

Loved the vulture’s shadow! There are times when I was on a flight that I could glimpse the shadow of the plane on the landscape below for stretches of time. It is entrancing!

Yes, it was like that here, too – and there were even a few dots of yellow outside with the first coltsfoot blooming. The first snakes were out, and the first woodfrogs at their courting puddle.

Hooray forsythia. Down here it was like Tuesday was all bare and dull and Wednesday was all green and yellow, like somebody remembered and hit the spring button.
