Science Blues

I subbed today and this quote seemed to fit since I subbed for 8th grade science. They would definitely be surprised to find they are not the center.

When science finally locates the center of the universe, some people will be surprised to learn they're not it.
~ Bernard Bailey

Night Leaves

I realize this is a bit noisy, but I loved the colors so much and I didn't have a tripod with me so this is what I got.

Delicious autumn! My very soul is wedded to it, and if I were a bird I would fly about the earth seeking the successive autumns.
~ George Eliot

Reading...

I didn't realize I needed these until I tried a pair on and found I could read better with them. :-P I like them though because when I do read I find it is just me and the book now. The rest of the world is just a tad blurry so it shuts me off from anything else around me.

If one cannot enjoy reading a book over and over again, there is no use in reading it at all.
~ Oscar Wilde

The Road to Nowhere

I had to post two today. I was able to get a few decent shots of another deer so I had to put one up. It was a great walk.


Any road followed precisely to its end leads precisely nowhere. Climb the mountain just a little bit to test it's a mountain. From the top of the mountain, you cannot see the mountain.
~ Frank Herbert

Comfort

It is comforting when one has a sorrow to lie in the warmth of one's bed and there, abandoning all effort and all resistance, to bury even one's head under the cover, giving one's self up to it completely, moaning like branches in the autumn wind. But there is still a better bed, full of divine odors. It is our sweet, our profound, our impenetrable friendship.
~ Marcel Proust

Corn

Whoever makes two ears of corn, or two blades of grass to grow where only one grew before, deserves better of mankind, and does more essential service to his country than the whole race of politicians put together.
~ Jonathan Swift

Camping Hair

B is going camping this weekend with my parents so I had to do her hair in the traditional "camping" style. This means fixing it so it won't have to be dealt with the whole weekend.

Forget not that the earth delights to feel your bare feet and the winds long to play with your hair.
~ Kahlil
