Today I saw a liverwort for the first time!
I stood and watched a little heron perched on a tree and saw the most brilliant, jewel-like metallic blue and green dragonfly with wings the velvety black of the night sky.
The ironweed is blooming in rich royal purple, jewelweed in vivid orange, wingstem in bright sunny yellow, and cardinal flower in unbelievably vivid scarlet. Yellow goldenrod, magenta phlox, white Virginia clematis. Meadows and streambanks along the hiking trails are rainbowed with wildflowers. I appreciate wildflowers individually, but placed together their bright colors are a whole other tier or beauty.
There's a spot with a little meadow full of milkweed and the monarch butterflies have a breathless majesty that never goes away no matter how often I see one.
Walking home I heard a chorus of frogs and stopped for a while to listen to them.
Somehow I'm most excited by far about the liverwort.

“KIϟϟ is just the latest of the Ringling Brother’s rock-and-roll bands. Their specialty is pyrotechnics, and with their vast assemblage of fireballs, flash and smoke bombs, the Army should consider using the band as a peace-keeping force… Musically, KIϟϟ’s basic rock and roll crunch chords work well for the blast-furnace visuals, though they rely on echoplexed guitars and phased fuzz” (San Bernardino County Sun-Telegram, 2/28/76).

what the hell is that stuff?!?!
*he's grabbing it, pulling desperately as he tries to unbury her from pile.*
"Nononononono... you... you can't...not yet..."
*sudden movement makes him pause, as she coughs and hacks up more sludge and blood. She looks at him blearily, clearly still fading in and out of conciousness.*
"Who...whuh..."

Baby, if you're feeling good
And, baby, if you're feeling nice
You know your man is working hard
He's worth a deuce

Alive! Tour
Palace Theater ‐ Waterbury, Connecticut
📸 include Joseph Sia
The show was briefly halted after Ace’s solo by announcement from the Fire Marshall warning the audience about standing on their chairs. After Black Diamond, there was another interruption this time a request for fans to put away their lighters and not burn the place down. Contrary to local legend, the band did not set fire to the stage drapery, Gene did set fire to his hair though.
