Turtling

"A well-known scientist (some say it was Bertrand Russell) once gave a public lecture on astronomy. He described how the earth orbits around the sun and how the sun, in turn, orbits around the center of a vast collection of stars called our galaxy. At the end of the lecture a little old lady at the back of the room got up and said: 'What you have told us is rubbish. The world is really a flat plate supported on the back of a giant tortoise.' The scientist gave a superior smile before replying, 'What is the turtle standing on?' 'You're very clever, young man, very clever,' said the little old lady. 'But it's turtles all the way down." - Stephen William Hawking (found on website Turtle Site)

A couple of bumps in the road, longer work week, a little hail, a minor tussle with the wind and a letter, a couple more decisions than I feel making . . . here I go thinking about basking on a warm rock in the sun.

May you enjoy some time to bask or nest
