me buddha and our banana musa tree

not that anyone of you would need to use this word but here's your word of the day: abulia \uh-BOO-lee-uh; uh-BYOO-\ which means loss or impairment of the ability to act or to make decisions. for example, there's little escape from her black hole of abulia. -- james saynor, "woman in the midst of a nervous breakdown", new york times. ha ha~ and of interest is that my mother studied in england. she use to take the boat from ostend, belgium to dover and arriving at the coast of england, she saw the white cliffs of dover. she traveled everywhere and at the end of her stay she hitchhiked it with friends. my father worked that summer in a place called eurdiston near worchester, picking fruit. isn't that neat! mom – i think you and Papa are fascinating and an amazing couple. i wish i had been more bold – not as naïve – and had adventured more. i know i’ve done much so stay tuned for more...

Yes, I recognize my daughter in the first picture.
Nice species of plant.
That weather machine is as moody as the weather is.
Have a great day!
