We planted the tree in 1969.
The old photo is 1999.
This new one is today in 2017.
So, the tree was a surprise, thirty years later.
Then, seen again another eighteen years later.
This follows from the first photo, taken in 1999:

After getting this new photo, we crossed the Bay Bridge to Caffè Trieste in North Beach:

Geocaching is a high-tech treasure hunting game played throughout the world by adventure seekers equipped with GPS devices. There COULD be as many as 26,097 caches in the Finger Lakes Region of New York. We guess you'll have to find out for yourself...
Just another character that fell out of my head. Drawn in pencil and inked, then scanned and colored in Photoshop.
One advantage of working in Photoshop is that I only drew one leaf and then cloned it as many times as I needed (reversing them now and again and varying their sizes so they didn't all look exactly the same).

The worn path travels through right-of-way maintained by the National Park Service, which I suspect is why no one has put any sidewalk down along this path. Despite the common-sense "this is where the sidewalk should go" aura it gives off, building on NPS tends to involve more legal hurdles than you'd think.

Orange, white, and grey tube shaped figure intertwined around a yellow and purple figure all set on a red and black background.
Inspiration: My vision of an anaconda constricting an unsuspecting tree sitter while staging a deforestation protest in the Brazilian rain forest.

Remember when? Remember when your daily drive was a VW Kombi, you had a herd of goats, spun your own wool, knitted your own yoghurt, dined on bio-dynamic comfrey and lived in a wood-fired yurt? Comfrey (Symphytum officinale), that was the secret wonder plant that would save the world.
Then, oddly, someone told us that if all we ate was comfrey the alkaloids would destroy our livers and we'd all die of self-righteousness. I'll confess that I've never lived in a yurt, wood-fired or not. But there was comfrey, the Kombi, those goats and yes, yoghurt. When your star milker is officially tested at 5.7kg in a 24 hour milk test you need serious strategies to manage all that milk and the health of a generous girl who gives and gives so much of herself. That health tonic? Any girl working that hard chews through a lot of protein, fibre and calcium. My bookshelves still hold a copy of "Recent Developments in Ruminant Nutrition"; not so recent now. All of that learning, all that research, all the feeding of all the best things still left Prim, her name not her manner, run down — her coat dry and brittle, her flanks hollow. This is where the tree-hugging and science put the rubber on the road. Prim needed support with her ruminal fermentation to convert all that good food into good nutrition. She needed to make her own vitamin B12, get some B12 in her diet and all of the minerals, including cobalt, to get back her glowing good health.
Enter the demon comfrey. Each day, every day, her rations were boosted with fresh leaves of yarrow and comfrey. Yes, she did get cancer. But it was years and years later and it was because of her pale Swiss skin under the Australian sun, not because she'd received a supplement of comfrey in her rations.
Now the goats are gone. But that line of comfrey lives on. It's flowering now, keeping bees happy and adding wonderfully mineral-rich support to my ruminant substitute compost bins.

今のオジ—です。Took a photo on lunch break. Woo. Here's some odd trivia for today: every single item I have on today [no, really EVERY ONE] I got on-line.
For the 365 Days Project.
