Whatsoever Is Lovely Challenge: 2023 – WEEK 6_February 5th

This weekend was a rare time spending with my granddaughter, my grandson, and my daughter all on a hiking trail. My daughter does not have her daughter all the time and she does not usually like to go hiking like my grandson and I do. So, being able to be outdoors in nature with all three of them was a lovely experience full of joy.

My grandson loves to climb. It was fun to watch his half-sister follow his lead in climbing up on top of the tunnel. My daughter’s heart was beating so fast, their actions scared her. It is a normal occurrence for me to watch my grandson climb when we are out in nature. If something can be climbed, he’ll climb it.

Ragtag Daily Prompt: Morass

According to the Oxford Dictionary Morass means an area of muddy or boggy ground.

Here’s my photo of a muddy area on the Wagon Loop at Anne Springs Close Greenway. So muddy the horses left their shoe impressions.

Horseshoe

And according to Webster Thesaurus.com synonyms include: chaos, quagmire, tangle, and snarl to name a few.

So here’s my pick for a tangled mixed up mess.

FOTD: Discarded Autumn Bouquet

As I walked around my complex today I noticed these discarded flowers sitting out back of one of the apartments. I wondered why someone would just place them out their back door and not throw them away if they didn’t want them any more. It appeared as if there wasn’t much life to them anymore.
