Today's class was on body parts and my students kept saying 'foot fingers'. Turns out that in Arabic and Portuguese and Mongolian~the word for 'fingers/toes' is the same. We laughed and laughed over this.
The Potomac continues it's roaring way to the Chesapeake Bay.
Since traffic was ever so lovely tonight, I was able to get some good pics from my car.
Made it home prior to dark and was able to have a short walk~it is GORGEOUS out.
Well, a leetle humid, but there was a breeze and the flowers were intense in colour and scent.
Remember that row of peonies? Fully blooming!
A little bedraggled from being bashed with endless raindrops, but still pretty.
We're going to have a whole lotta blackberries later this summer.
So symmetrical, it looks almost looks man-made.
And best of all? Dad is out of the hospital and happily enjoying Chinese food.
Still having peony envy.
ReplyDeleteDoes anything else enjoy your blackberries? We look to be having a fair amount here, too - and yesterday we saw the Federal Wildlife truck out... and now we're wondering if we have lions, tigers, bears, or... if we have another alligator. YES. Last year we had an ALLIGATOR in the salt water canals behind the houses in these neighborhoods.
I really would rather they get all of that out of their systems before it happens with ME living here!!!
Gotta wonder who let their Florida souvenir loose in your neighborhood?
