The Georgia Rain on the Jasper County clay
Couldn't wash away what I felt for you that day
Just you and me down an old dirt road
Nothin' in our way
Except for the Georgia Rain

Veronica ‘Georgia Blue’ (or ’Oxford Blue’) is a cultivar of Veronica umbrosa (peduncularis), i.e., creeping speedwell native to Southeastern Europe and Southwestern Asia. The leaves of this semi-evergreen plant turn to be red-brown in winter but fresh green leaves emerge again in spring. At the same time it produces brilliant blue flowers, forming beautiful blue carpets along the border.
Sighnaghi, Georgia, Caucasus, 2013.
"The first man who, having fenced in a piece of land, said "This is mine," and found people naïve enough to believe him, that man was the true founder of civil society. From how many crimes, wars, and murders, from how many horrors and misfortunes might not any one have saved mankind, by pulling up the stakes, or filling up the ditch, and crying to his fellows: Beware of listening to this impostor; you are undone if you once forget that the fruits of the earth belong to us all, and the earth itself to nobody."
― Jean-Jacques Rousseau, Discourse on the Origin of Inequality
One of our local parks follows the Georgian Bay Shoreline. Years ago I used to bring our young children here to swim on the beach. Now the waters are so high, the trees are being swamped. The beach is gone. Beavers are taking down a lot of the trees this year too. Phragmites are invading the shores. As nature changes the landscape, it creates some beautiful sculptures using ice. I loved my walk down by the bay under sunny skies this week.
There were lots of black skimmers standing around on Cumberland Island, Georgia when we visited last year.
