The woods at Scholar Green are quite magical with bluebells and wild garlic. There are thousands of little pink flowers in this scene but I just couldn't bring them out in the way I had imagined before I got there. I blame the light. Anyhow, must dash. Eurovision tonight. Twelve years ago, who remembers the winner? www.youtube.com/watch?v=WXwgZL4zx9o
Windows of Opportunity" have been on my mind a lot. We are tentatively scheduled to take a May tour of Bryce & Zion canyons with Road Scholar in May of 2022. The COVID numbers are rising. If I were in my 40's , I would wait and say that there would be other opportunities "when life becomes more normal (safe)". I am in my mid-70's and healthy. There is still the thought in the back of my mind as to how many windows of opportunity will be in my future. We will decide as the time draws nearer.
I am reflecting, not complaining. We have weathered the pandemic well and our living situation is comfortable. I have also had many opportunities in the past to experience other places. The Irish rover in my genes still longs for a look beyond my present horizon, however, and it's a nagging feeling.
There will be one other post in this "windows of opportunity" series.
Thse are all scholars from my ESL 3/4/5 Intermediate II class. They try very hard, and they are really learning. They are all members of the Jedi ESL Order.
Seated among piles of leather-bound books and ink-stained parchments, the wise and knowledgeable old scholar carefully studies the works of the past, learning from them and copying them to preserve the knowledge of days gone by for the learners of the future.

This is my very quickly built entry to the Byzantium Contest over on Classic Castle. When Constantinople fell in 1453, scholars who had preserved and studied the ancient Greek and Roman classics for years were forced to flee to other parts of Europe, such as Italy and France. This reintroduction of the ancient works is what rekindled European appreciation for classical thought and art and started the Renaissance.
This was a fun build, took me less than a day, which is pretty fast for me! Thanks for looking! :)
Soli Deo Gloria!
Built in the 17th century the covered stairs allowed generations of people reach the church and school at the upper part of Sighisoara citadel safe from bad weather.
Still in use today as much by teenage students as tourists.
The Summer Palace, Beijing. This is one element of a Chinese garden which I saw in multiple locations. It's named this way because this style of naturally eroded limestone was supposed to be appreciated by scholars. My local friend said the wind and rain make peaceful sounds with these rocks. I liked that explanation!

I was lucky enough to teach in this beautiful old school for 17 years. It was built in 1873 but the grammar school dates from much earlier. It is a wonderful building and now has a preservation order on it so will be kept and maintained as a piece of history. today I had to meet a colleague in there and was astounded how easy it was just to step back in time.

Pra finalizar essa esmaltação eu carimbei um tribal lindo da placa Moyou em todas as unhas e vou confessar que estou absurdamente apaixonada pelo resultado. Os glitters abaixo da carimbada ficaram perfeitos como eu queria! Pra finalizar passei mais uma camada do TC da Impala e secou também super rápido. E aí gostaram apesar do trabalho todo? rs
