Yancey Ward said...: In my new house, I am, at the moment, sleeping in the bedroom whose windows face west- I woke up around 4 or 5 in the morning and saw the full moon shining through the trees behind the house- it was a glorious view.; 1/4/26, 9:47 AM

Eva Marie said...: I have to put a sweater on just to look at these photos/videos. Can’t you just put one of those remote cameras on one of those trees and watch the sunrise from the comfort of your home?

Wasn't that the premise of The Matrix, and the whole struggle was to escape it?; 1/4/26, 11:59 AM

Iman said...: “Unicorns and cannonballs
Palaces and piers
Trumpets, towers, and tenements
Wide oceans full of tears
Flags, rags, ferry boats
Scimitars and scarves
Every precious dream and vision
Underneath the stars

Yes, you climbed on the ladder
With the wind in your sails
You came like a comet
Blazing your trail
Too high
Too far
Too soon
You saw the whole of the moon”
