My daughter, her housemate and her housemate’s parents came Friday night. We all went to Arches National Park yesterday morning. This is part of the Parade of Elephants.
This morning we went to the Colorado National Monument again.
My daughter and I both practically backed away from this optical illusion. CUT THAT OUT! NOT FUNNY!
Anyhow, the outdoors is my feed, nourishing and amazing all the time.
For the Ragtag Daily Prompt: feed.
I like it when you can see the rain coming, the cloud in the distance with the rain coming down in lines and strands. I can smell the ozone and everything waking up in the rain, as if all the plants are talking to each other. “Oh, here it comes and I am so thirsty!”
“Wait, that’s a bit too much!” “Eeeee, hail!”
For the Ragtag Daily Prompt: rain.
The sky and cloud colors here are so amazing.
And here the cloud is the road runner.
This is an early morning moon.
And clouds just straight up.
For the Ragtag Daily Prompt: rally.
My now adult children call their father “The fossil”. Maybe they call me the relic, I don’t know. I love this photograph, taken in about 2003, of my daughter and her father. This is what turns parents in to relics, right?
For the Ragtag Daily Prompt: relic.
The Colorado National Monument is gorgeous, layers and layers of rock going back, back, back in time.
For the Ragtag Daily Prompt: rugged.
“Be not affrayed,” said the Angel, “and don’t get into fights.”
“So why do you have a sword?” said the little girl.
“Well,” said the Angel, hiding the sword behind their back, “people are affrayed and tend to behave when they see it.”
For the Ragtag Daily Prompt: affray.
The pendulum swings far and back
Too many babies, what will we all eat?
Suddenly the switch, another panic attack
Now too few to support Wall Street
We wait in running cars in the drive-thru line
Wanting our turn to order fast food
It’s sunny through the smog and we feel just fine
The weather’s getting stranger, the world in a mood
Maybe we’ve peaked while driving around
Who will take care of us when we are old?
Peaked at the drive-thru, going down without a sound
An AI wonders at the price of gold
This might be as good as it gets
Maybe an AI will keep a few of us as pets
For the Ragtag Daily Prompt: drive-thru.
Yes, I have one for this job.
For the Ragtag Daily Prompt: badge.
The gorillas have taken over downtown Grand Junction.
I suspect they look much less dystopian when they have children climbing all over them. They look well loved.
For the Ragtag Daily Prompt: dystopian.
