It's light in here with a mother gone away, things seem much brighter when you see it all in grey. Simple rhymes have been moving through my head lately, little things that a kid could write but something about them is so enjoyable, maybe an endless fascination with Dr. Seuss from when I was a child that engrained his flow into my head.

I'm back on the horse and riding after a brief hiatus. Caught this little yearling relaxing in an orchard today as he followed his mother and little brother who were extremely peaceful as they lounged about.
It's surprising this little guy could still fly with so much pollen on his legs. I was sitting there watching him and wondering when he would say "well... I guess that's enough for one trip."

This little web is as if you hold your index finger and thumb up separate to space something out in front of you. This thought takes a good imagination to many places, my first stop being "What if a person died in a flash making that pose with their hands and time has reduced them to bones where a spider has decided to make it's home." What do you see?

Why aren't spiders cute like they used to be? Anyone remember Charlotte from "Charlotte's Web" or Miss Muffit who had a spider sit down with her? Spiders are still cute, their webs are still beautiful, end of story.

So many people are frightened of spiders but I still can't quite figure out why. It's like this built in fear from childhood that we can't quite explain or articulate but we also cannot rationalize it away. Their webs are so beautiful and tactics so effective that they really are amazing to observe, I guess I don't really have a point with all of this, it's more just observations but I'm curious to discuss it as well.

This little lady kept wandering closer and closer to me as I was walking towards here until suddenly her instinct took over her interest and she headed off. Her regal posture is quite enjoyable though.
