Language is a living thing. We can feel it changing. Parts of it become old: they drop off and are forgotten. New pieces bud out, spread into leaves, and become big branches, proliferating.

Happy Fenced Friday!

The Pannonian Plain is a large plain in Central Europe that remained when the Pliocene Pannonian Sea dried out. It is a geomorphological subsystem of the Alps-Himalaya system.
The river Danube divides the plain roughly in half.
The plain is divided among Austria, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Croatia, the Czech Republic, Hungary, Romania, Serbia, Slovakia, Slovenia and Ukraine.
The plain is roughly bounded by the Carpathian mountains, the Alps, the Dinaric Alps and the Balkan mountains.
Although rain is not plentiful, it usually falls when necessary and the plain is a major agricultural area; it is sometimes said that these fields of rich loamy loess soil could feed the whole of Europe. For its early settlers, the plain offered few sources of metals or stone. Thus when archaeologists come upon objects of obsidian or chert, copper or gold, they have almost unparalleled opportunities to interpret ancient pathways of trade.
The precursor to the present plain was a shallow sea that reached its greatest extent during the Pliocene, when three to four kilometres of sediments were deposited.
The plain was named after the Pannonians, a northern Illyrian tribe. Various different peoples inhabited the plain during its history. In the first century BC, the eastern parts of the plain belonged to the Dacian state, and in the first century AD its western parts were subsumed into the Roman Empire. The Roman province named Pannonia was established in the area, and the city of Sirmium, today Sremska Mitrovica, Serbia, became one of the four capital cities of the Roman Empire in the 3rd century.
I was able to go out and capture the first spring storms of the season. Great clouds and just a little bit of lightning (Was hoping for more!)

The Merced River is high in its banks, filled with spring meltwater. Here a clump of small trees with fresh leaves is standing in the flowing water. They are actually rooted in the edge of the sandbar that is now mostly underwater.

With the music : Epic Inspiration

The Old Basilica of Kehryan ... with its "Spring of Memory" or the "Headless Giant" , the sculpture was carved directly into the mountain, so that the water would appear to come out of the lips.
With the power to restore memory to those who have lost, many are the ones who seek it, forgetting that often our lost memories are not always the good ones ...
My beautiful wisteria is blooming again!
Wisteria is a genus of flowering plants in the legume family, Fabaceae (Leguminosae), that includes ten species of woody twining vines that are native to China, Korea, Japan, Vietnam, Southern Canada, the Eastern United States, and north of Iran. They were later introduced to France, Germany and various other countries in Europe. Some species are popular ornamental plants.

A freak snowstorm hit parts of Vancouver last night. I got off work this morning and, eager to try out my new camera, headed up to Burnaby Mountain Park in search of photo ops.

A SPRING MORNING
I awake light-hearted this morning of spring,
Everywhere round me the singing of birds --
But now I remember the night, the storm,
And I wonder how many blossoms were broken.
- Meng Haoran -
This is a poem by Meng Haoranwas who was a major Tang dynasty poet.
