in a stampede of fumbling green gentleness

mona just emailed from toklat and said she saw 29 species of flowers in bloom today on thorofare, which made me quite aware of the holes in my observation skills. i'm still fixated on the big bright gaudy things. my count for the day is 3, so far: the pasque flowers on my hill, windflowers at savage, lupine on the side of the road.
this week has been a long series of fascinating intangibles, and not in the NPS interp sense of the word, but that too. today, i'm focusing on the concrete: numbers, colors, map coordinates. garlic. the usual.

The signature that I wanted to put on the 2nd commentario is "Mommy" but it wouldn't let me!
