Yesterday I posted some pictures that I have been told were difficult to see. I mean, I take pictures with my phone of the stars and they aren't easy to see, but sometimes, it works. I took some tonight as well. I also took some short video during my walk this morning. I have a hard time posting video on here as well. Because of these two things I created a link to an album instead that I will post at the end of the blog under the sunflower.
The other day I wrote about my walk alone and the poem for identifying coral snakes. It is a simple rhyme that my brain doesn't want to hold on to. This rhyme only works for coral snakes. As I was walking alone this morning and was by a creek I heard a plop sound. Looking over I saw a snake swimming away. This was not a coral snake but a water moccasin. This is where the knowledge of TF's son becomes much more useful than the poem. If a snake is venomous the shape of the head will be triangular, non-venomous are more rounded. Growing up in New Hampshire we only had rattlesnakes and those are few and give a warning if they are threatened. I didn't need to know about any other poisonous snakes. I'm sure that I learned and forgot that triangle head tidbit some other time.
TF was very kind and let C and E come over today to do laundry. This became time that we could all sit and watch Hamilton. A few minutes in, E suggested we turn on the subtitles. This made it so much easier for this older brain to understand the rap and fast talk in the show. There were nuances that we missed and so watching it again will happen. Now that I have seen the movie I can listen the book, Hamilton: The Revolution, and I will have more context. Watching this and sharing thoughts about it with C, E and TF is my happy for today. Also, in the words of King George III from Hamilton, "Da da da dat da dat da da da da ya da"
