This has not been a busy year on my blog, having sometimes gone a month or more without posting anything new. Currently teaching three college classes online from home, and not finding much time to write and post images for the blog. One more week in the semester and Spring has sprung, so that should change. I have a backlog of several dozen photos taken in the last few weeks, so I will soon be posting them along with stories of the experiences I'm having along the way. My overall theme is generally concentrated on flowering plants and their symbiotic relationships with their pollinators. When the mood strikes, I insert philosophical and political comments. Please feel free to share your comments, but please be nice. I try to be.
I have been teaching since 1965 and have recently joined the English Department as an Associate Faculty member at Feather River College. Recently taught Nature Literature in America and am currently teaching Interpersonal Communication and Basic Reading and Writing.
Went out to Feather River College today to register my youngest son in his first two college classes. The paved walkway up to the main campus, a nuisance to many, is as scenic as ever. A great view of the new media center apparently guarded by some stately Mulleins on top of a dirt pile. After registering, we walked back to the car via the nature trail. Saw lots of ripe Gooseberries, but I was not satisfied with any of my photos of them in situ, so we brought some home and I staged a "still life." The path on the way up was decorated with some nice thistles, Stickseed, and the usual variety of great trees. On the nature trail, in addition to Gooseberries, there were some impressive patches of Dodder in the act of strangling its neighbors.
