RANDOM THOUGHTS


I think that path will take you all the way around Watson Lake but I've never found out for sure and probably never will.  Never will walk it, anyway.

I like our Mimosa tree in the front yard although since it always puts out leaves later than the Globe Willow, I kid SWMBO every spring, saying it's nothing but a dead stick and I should cut it down.  But when it finally does get its leaves I think it looks kind of Oriental and I love it.  Until this time of year when it drops all of its leaves in our front yard and across our driveway.  So, because SWMBO told me to, I've just swept the driveway and deposited the leaves in our trash can, nearly filling it.  And I'm beat.

So that's about it for me today.  See you tomorrow.

  1. I got three bags full of leaves a couple of days ago and it kicked my butt.

    I'm not the man I once was and will never be again. To steal a line from Michael Cain.

  2. I know exactly what you and Michael meant. But I've just had a bit of a nap and I'm feeling better.

  3. Is a mimosa the tree that puts out the little fuzzy pink blooms? When I was a kid a neighbor had one as I recall, but I don't think I've seen one since. Wonder why?

    You take care of yourself.

  4. Yup, one of its lesser qualities. I just like the lacey leaves.

    Thank you, Scott. I'm fine.
