Precisely (Ha Ha)

 

Some words just keep popping up for me and when they do, you know I have to share them with you.  I like to read articles from "The Guardian". I have been informed that I have read 267 pieces, precisely.  Since my brain is wired to go straight to song lyrics, you know that must have triggered those little grey cells to start singing a Beatles song!  "When I'm Sixty-Four" was one of the first songs written by Paul McCartney when he was just a lad of 14!  I wonder if he thinks 64 is so very old now! Ha ha! (No offense, Sir Paul, you know I LOVE you!) I found a very good cover version. Hope you like it as much as I do....

I said "ha ha" just above. That is usually meant to describe a laugh or a chuckle, but did you know it also means something regarding landscape design?  I watched a TV series set in England recently, which was filmed at a stately home. One of the characters went outside the house into the front garden and suddenly, there was a low stone wall. "Hey!", (I shouted out to my poor husband who puts up with me with great patience), "What's that called again?". I had discovered the word a while back but couldn't think of it.  Never mind, I did a search for it and found the word...it is called a "ha ha"! Originally built to keep out livestock, they were later incorporated into the landscape. It blended in such a way that when one came upon it, "ah ah" was the response, which became "ha ha". 

That is it, precisely!   Ha ha

We had some heavy clouds come in yesterday. It was thought that we might get snow, but we were advised that instead of the Metro Atlanta area getting snow, it would be the counties SOUTH of us that would see it! Sure enough this morning, we saw beautiful pictures of the snow on TV but none here. Never mind! Speaking of snow, anyone else see the story about the bridge in Hamburg, Germany about the tiny snow figures? The little snowmen/snowwomen were all along the side of the stone bridge and one mean person knocked them all down. The townspeople simply showed up and REBUILT them! I was astonished at all the different snow figures. Just delightful.

We have walked in all kinds of weather recently. It really is better to have sunshine, but the clouds and fog have a beauty all their own.

Hello there, blue sky! So nice to see you!

Hope you are all doing well these days. Take care.
