I Intentionally Seek Beauty and Look Away from ____. Therefore I Took Photos of My Rose Garden on my Morning Walk Today... and Did Not Watch the Democratic Convention last Night...

Or the Republicans later on this week... My Mind is Made Up, No Need To Observe Insanity.

\

I DID Sit on My Bench in the Sunshine... and Listened to the Birds Chirping... The Grapes Are Ripe! and I Did Pick Some Low Hanging Fruit... There is a Plum Tree...

as a Tribal Elder... It Is My Job to Teach... Since I'm Retired I No Longer Actually DO Anything to Make the World a Better Place to Live... That is all in the Past Now... I DID Make a Difference... NOW... I'm Just Thinking and Writing...

I Have a Question for YOU, Gentle Reader...

Are You Making a Difference With Your Life?

~~~~~~ (~);-} ~~~~~~

I'm Glad That I Made A Difference With My Life. At Work, I Helped People... So Many People Do Evil Because It Pays a Lot of Money... That's CRAZY!

We used to Eat "Miner's Lettuce." Mom showed me what the plant looked like and said it was good to eat. In these Days of tRUMP's Coronavirus Destroying the Economy, YOUR SURVIVAL May Depend on Hunting/Gathering... It's The Growth Industry!

The California Gold Miners in 1849 survived on it.

We used Eucalyptus Leaves and Seeds as a Natural Flea Killer for our Dog... We just Made a Big Pile Where He Liked To Sleep... Mom Knew Many Natural Solutions to Common Problems... She Came from an Apricot/Prune Farming Family.
ALSO... "They Say" Dandelions are good for digestion and may ease rheumatism or liver problems. They can be eaten whole or divided up. Young dandelion greens can be tossed in salads and young leaves can be cooked like spinach. Leaves should be gathered before the plant blooms as they will become increasingly bitter and tough. I've Never Eaten Them...

Makes me wonder... What OTHER food can I get that doesn't come from the Grocery Store? We have a Mulberry tree in the back yard and I ate the little fruits today... They look like Blackberries. Pretty Good...
