Been revisiting the wisdom of Winnie the Pooh.

A True American Icon

I love Yogi Berra.  Berra's "It ain't over 'til it's over" and "It's déjà vu all over again," his most famous quotes, might not have been. Berra admitted that "I never said most of the things I said." Here are a few that certianly were his:

-We madbut even Berra admitted that "I never said most of the things I said."ven Berra admitted that "I never said most of the things I said."

- too many wrong mistakes.

-The future ain't what it used to be.

-You can observe a lot by watching.

-In theory there is no difference between theory and practice. In practice there is.

-A nickel ain't worth a dime anymore.

-It ain't the heat, it's the humility.

Tara Stone

The Lia Fáil or Stone of Destiny which stands about one metre in height is considered by some to have been a fertility symbol. The standing stone at ancient Hill of Tara in Ireland was originally sufficiently close to the Mound of the Hostages passage tomb that the two were traditionally considered to be an ensemble.

The Valley of Siddim near Dead Sea

The ruins of Sodom and Gomorrah have been discovered southeast of the Dead Sea. The modern names are Bab edh-Dhra, thought to be Sodom, and Numeira, thought to be Gomorrah. Both places were destroyed at the same time by an enormous conflagration. The destruction debris was about three feet thick

"Do not go gentle into that good night"

Do not go gentle into that good night,
Old age should burn and rave at close of day;
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

Though wise men at their end know dark is right,
Because their words had forked no lightning they
Do not go gentle into that good night.

Good men, the last wave by, crying how bright
Their frail deeds might have danced in a green bay,
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

Wild men who caught and sang the sun in flight,
And learn, too late, they grieved it on its way,
Do not go gentle into that good night.

Grave men, near death, who see with blinding sight
Blind eyes could blaze like meteors and be gay,
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

And you, my father, there on the sad height,
Curse, bless, me now with your fierce tears, I pray.
Do not go gentle into that good night.
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.

~~ Dylan Thomas

My stork's nest?

One can argue the nest is found. Using iPhone camera the resolution might require NSA's help.

The creek where the heron feeds.....the dead tree off into the near ravine....the nest with chicks (maybe)...u decide.....I'm convinced after lots of searching.

my field

This view is the field in back (southern third). The green arrow shows the location where the young girls from the neighborhood picked wild flowers. The ladies have a sixth senses for finding beauty the guys overlook.

My heron. I know where is her nest

O Death sung by Ralph Stanley

O, Death
O, Death
Won't you spare me over til another year
Well what is this that I can't see
With ice cold hands takin' hold of me
................

O Death
O,, Death
Won't you spare me over til another year
My mother came to my bed
Placed a cold towel upon my head
My head is warm my feet are cold
Death is a-movin upon my soul
Oh, death how you're treatin' me
You've close my eyes so I can't see
Well you're hurtin' my body
You make me cold
You run my life right outta my soul
Oh death please consider my age
Please don't take me at this stage
My wealth is all at your command
If you will move your icy hand
Oh the young, the rich or poor
Hunger like me you know
No wealth, no ruin, no silver no gold

Nothing satisfies me but your soul.

What's under the yellow squiggle?

Where did the 5 fox pups go?

There were first seen by my sister in law (see her pic) on their small estate. In early summer young fox (older pups) are seen under an abandoned shed a few hundred yards on a larger estate.

James Ossuary...j p Ronan's conclusion

There are two phrases done by two different persons.

Note separation in phrases by red marks.

Note the difference in horizontal levels in blue marks.

Note the difference in writing in letter 'Y' in yellow marks.

Note the difference in hieght of collation of letters.

Note the seeming difference in depth of lettering.


I can not accept with credabilty the ossuary as non fradulant!
