Thanks for the update, good to know where we can find you!

My fitness watch (a Samsung Galaxy Watch Active 2) includes sleep tracking so I never considered adding another device. I find it helpful as a checkpoint, especially on the nights when I feel like I didn't have good sleep. Usually the stats in the …

My wandering continues to be limited to Massachusetts since we still have a travel restriction in place to all states other than Hawaii and Puerto Rico - none of which shares a border with us. For all other states we need to quarantine or get a …

The signup process to get a vaccine here in MA has been quite a mess but somehow I managed to snag an appointment last week at one of the mass vaccination sites. I feel very lucky. My first dose of Pfizer vaccine was yesterday. While the signup …

Thanks for posting this @Chris! I'm still wandering through the photos but I have to say I love the image you chose to represent this thread! I wonder what the dog is thinking....

I agree. I was appalled with his reason for not voting to convict when he is the individual who caused the impeachment to be filed with the senate after the end of the term.

I certainly hope so!

Thanks for the link! I love seeing butterflies outside but I also really enjoy seeing them at the conservatory, very different experience.

That's amazing!

Although I expected this result I am very disappointed. The bulk of the Republican senators have no guts. And I'm appalled that McConnell seems to be saying that he didn't vote to convict because T is no longer in office - but it's McConnell who …

It definitely is! I feel lucky to have places like Magic Wings to spend a day, to use as a calming renewal.

Thank you! I needed that outing. I wish it was a little closer though it is very doable for a day trip.

Thank you! Yes, they are amazing!

And of course there were …

This bird (a parrot, I think) initially looked at me while seeming to sleep but later stared …

Here are a few more (delightful) …

It's much easier to capture butterflies with my camera when they are standing still but it's always worth trying to capture their …

It's winter in the northeast US with snow covering the ground. I've been watching the forecast for a couple of weeks, looking for a good day to drive a bit west in the state to visit the butterflies at Magic Wings Butterfly …

I love this! It looks 3-dimensional.

Thanks for posting both of these @Chris. The time lapse creation was wonderful and I was also amazed by the colorizations.

Thanks for the information - I think you're right that this is a beech tree. I'll look closer the next time I walk by.

I certainly understand loving California! Thanks for commenting and looking and scenes from Massachusetts.

Here are a few more photos from my morning walk …
