The Recreation Center invited folks to bring an ornament and help decorate the holiday tree. It is a great way to bring folks together and feel part of the community.
Found these adorable little things in a neighborhood drive-by the other day -- one of the few things I can do for fun these days!
Yup, still lovin' the way my neighbourhood is so fabulously decorated for Hallowe'en. A real atmosphere of fun, excitement, neighbourliness, sharing and...yup, if you'll excuse the purposeful pun, everyone's community "spirit" :-) Muaahhahaaaaahaaaaa.
Happy Hallowe'eeeeeeen!

▶ In the recent past, Global Growers' website said this about the community garden: "Decatur’s Kitchen Garden is a unique garden space for refugee and immigrant growers, led by Global Growers in collaboration with the City of Decatur. The garden currently offers 36 large community growing plots for international families, most of whom came to Atlanta as refugees." As of 2024, however, the website no longer specifically mentions refugees or immigrants.

Thermophilic communities are as diverse as the communities that humans live in. Community formations, colors, and locations vary depending on the types of microbes, the pH, and the temperature of their environments.
Millions of individual microbes can connect into long strands called filaments. Some bacteria and algae form thin and delicate structures in fast moving water such as the runoff channels of hot springs and geysers. Other microbes form thick, sturdy structures in slower water or where chemical precipitates quickly coat their filaments.
A bacterium called Thermocrinis forms structures and grows by eating hydrogen gas or sulfur compounds. Its filaments entwine, forming mats. Flowing water carries other microbes, organic matter, and minerals that become caught in the streamers and add to the mat.
Photosynthetic activity of Cyanobacteria such as Lyptolyngbya form columns or pedestals. Oxygen bubbles rise in the mat, forcing the microbes upward. The higher formations capture more organic matter and sediment than the lower mats, which help build the columns. Called stromatolites or microbialites, these structures are similar to ancient microbial communities preserved in formations (dated to >3.0 billion years old) around the world.
Mats can be as thin as tissue paper or as thick as lasagna. Multiple layers of microorganisms make up inch-thick mats. Dozens of types of microbes from all three domains can exist in these layers. Each layer is a community, and each layer interacts with the other layers, forming a complex, larger ecosystem full of millions of microorganisms and their life processes.
A stack of large rocks piled into a cone shape by visitors to the Lopez Ridge Park adjacent to Lopez Ridge in Sorrento Mesa, San Diego, California. It grows monthly as more people add a stone for prayer, for inclusion, for meditation, for luck, or just for the sake of contributing. Bring a stone if you find yourself in these parts.

It is a rare community in this part of Pennsylvania that does not have a little league baseball field. This is the first year kids this age have had to face player pitchers. It makes for a lot of walks, hit batsmen and once in a while the ball gets hit. At any rate little league is a community building experience, if it's done well and with the kids development as the top priority.
